Friends Rayna (Blu Hunt), Mitch (Colin Burgess), and Noah (Kevin Grossman) are barhopping in a Los Angeles neighborhood that looks like Silverlake.

THE GIRL IN THE RIVER movie poster | ©2026 Samuel Goldwyn Films

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Maggie Grace, Devon Sawa, Tiffany Haddish, Ralph Macchio, Andrew Stevens, Angelena Swords, David Moncrief, Darron Dunbar, Lucy Blair Writer: Brando Benetton Director: Brando Benetton Distributor: Samuel Goldwyn Films Release Date: September 4, 2026 THE GIRL IN THE RIVER is a mostly decently-executed procedural. In its structure, it could be mistaken for a long episode of a serious-minded TV crime-solving series, assuming the show has two leads who don’t like or trust each other very much. Newly-minted Mississippi Department of Investigations (a fictional government branch that resembles the FBI) agent Amelia Pembrock (Maggie Grace) isn’t sure she’s […]Read On »

Rating: R Stars: Yahya Abdul-Mateen III, Mark Wahlberg, Nicole Beharie, Josh Lucas, LisaGay Hamilton, LaChanze, Ethan Embry, Giancarlo Esposito, David Strathairn Writer: Sascha Penn Director: Elegance Bratton Distributor: Paramount Pictures Release Date: September 4, 2026 In 1964, Black civil rights leader Malcolm X gave a speech that included the words, “We want freedom by any means necessary. We want justice by any means necessary. We want equality by any means necessary.” “By any means” has largely been interpreted as “including violence.” BY ANY MEANS the movie certainly takes it that way. Directed by Elegance Bratton and scripted by Sascha Penn, […]Read On »

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Piper Curda, Noel Fisher, Josh Zuckerman, Natasha Behnam, Lucius Baybak. Ritesh Rajan, Kyle S. More Writer: Angie Simms Director: Tommy Savas Distributor: Brainstorm Media Release Date: September 4, 2026 (theatrical), September 25, 2026 (VOD) C.O.G. (original title COGNAITIVE) is about an A.I. that goes rogue in the final stages of its (her?) development. “Haven’t you seen TERMINATOR?” a programmer snaps when asked what’s the worst that could happen. Obviously, the irony is that the programmer certainly saw it and went ahead with her job anyway – right until it reaches crisis point. Written by Angie Simms […]Read On »

For those who missed it, that’s the show (that ran for fourteen seasons) for young children with […]Read On »

Wagner Distributor: Lionsgate Release Date: August 25, 2026 (digital, VOD) Nobody should be robbing anybody’s house. That said, the absolute worst time to attempt burglary is when the homeowner is not only there, but in the midst of turning into a zombie. This is the premise of TURNING POINT, a generally decent if uneven horror movie, written and directed by Joshua D. Wagner.It begins with black-and-white images of cells dividing […]Read On »

Rating: PG-13 Stars: Amelia Eve, Brandon Perea, Lin Shaye, Island Austin, Maisie Richardson-Sellers, Sam Spruell, Laura Gordon, Charli Penton Writer: Jacob Chase, story by David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick and Jacob Chase, based on characters created by Leigh Whannell Director: Jacob Chase Distributor: Sony/Screen Gems Release Date: August 21, 2026 The first INSIDIOUS film, released in 2010, directed by James Wan and written by Leigh Whannell, was legitimately scary. (This reviewer has vivid memories of her screening companion scrunching twenty pages of press notes into a single sweaty wad.) INSIDIOUS introduced us to Travelers, people who – often unknowingly – could astral-project […]Read On »

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Dawn Ford, Emmanuelle Lussier Martinez, Bill Rowat, Mark Krupa, Jason Cavalier, Steve “Liquid” Hawley Writers: John Petrizzi & Brad Hodson, story by Adam O’Brien Director: Adam O’Brien Distributor: Brainstorm Media Release Date: August 21, 2026 BURY THE DEVIL begins with a quote from THE BOOK OF ATTRITION (invented by the filmmakers), which cites the demon Elim as a being who wears down his adversaries until he can absorb them. Fair enough. We then get a long shot of what looks like an isolated facility, engulfed by flames, and hear a woman screaming. We then get a […]Read On »
