This is the case with SOMNIUM, which presents us with three intertwined plotlines: one is a science-fiction/horror thriller, one is a trying-to-make-it-in-Hollywood tale, and one is a retrospective look at lost love. We meet Gemma […]Read On »

A recent entry in the sincerest form of HELLRAISER flattery is FLESH OF THE UNFORGIVEN, which features an entity known as the Death Dealer. Onscreen and in voiceover, we are informed that […]Read On »

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Abigail Hardingham, Rowan Polonski, Brad Moore, Samantha Steel, Jon M. Chandler Writer: Tiago Teixeira Director: Tiago Teixeira Distributor: The Movie Partnership Release Date: August 19, 2025 (VOD, digital) The title of CUSTOM has two meanings here. The first is commercial, as in made to order. The second refers to ritual. Young working-class English couple Harriet (Abigail Hardingham) and Jasper (Rowan Polonski) are expanding their professional horizons. She’s a photographer, he’s a videographer, and they met in an arts collective. However, their income has left something to be desired, so – using the stage names Flower and […]Read On »

Rating: PG-13 Stars: Sharmita Bhattacharya, Hayley McFarland, Caisey Cole, Margaret Wuerz, Arthur Higbee Writer: Solomon Gray Director: Solomon Gray Distributor: Saban Films Release Date: August 22, 2025 (theatrical, digital, VOD) WE’RE NOT SAFE HERE begins with a wheezing tied-up figure in a chair, with a bloody pillowcase over their head. Someone approaches with a sharp object and utters a shocking line of dialogue. Writer/director Solomon Gray gets our attention immediately with this opening and thereafter holds it steadily throughout. Scares are frequent; unease is constant. We then meet schoolteachers Neeta (Sharmita Bhattacharya) and Sarah (Caisey Cole). Together, they wonder about […]Read On »
