Rating: R Stars: Jennifer Lawrence, Robert Pattinson, Sissy Spacek, Nick Nolte, LaKeith Stanfield Writers: Enda Walsh & Lynne Ramsay and Alice Birch, based on the novel by Ariana Harwicz Director: Lynne Ramsay Distributor: Mubi Release Date: November 7, 2025 Despite what is implied in the advertising, DIE MY LOVE is not a thriller in any common usage of that word. Instead, it is a drama about postpartum depression that spirals into psychosis. At the beginning of DIE MY LOVE, Grace (Jennifer Lawrence) and Jackson (Robert Pattinson) share a sexual desire that burns as hot as the forest fire intercut with […]Read On »

Movie Review: YOUR HOST

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Jackie Earle Haley, Ella-Rae Smith, Jamie Flatters, David Angland, Joelle Ray, Tom Claxton Writer: Joey Miller Director: DW Medoff Distributor: RNF Productions Release Date: October 14, 2025 (VOD) YOUR HOST concerns a torture game show, videotaped by the Host (Jackie Earle Haley). Since what seems to be happening at the outset is in fact the substance of the movie, it’s not too spoilery to say that the Host is doing this for his own reasons and that it’s not supernatural. We see “winner” Jake (Tom Claxton), shackled and bloodied, get shot after the Host breaks his […]Read On »

Rating: R Stars: Diane Lane, Kyle Chandler, Madeline Brewer, Zoey Deutch, Phoebe Dynevor, Mckenna Grace, Daryl McCormack, Dylan O’Brien, Selda Kaya, Sky Yang, Flavia Watson Writer: Lori Rosene-Gambino, story by Jan Komasa and Lori Rosene-Gambino Director: Jan Komasa Distributor: Lionsgate/Roadside Attractions Release Date: October 29, 2025 (theatrical) No one is going to confuse ANNIVERSARY with a movie made after the 2024 election. Few would argue that the U.S. has remained the same since then, but it hasn’t changed in exactly the way ANNIVERSARY anticipates. Scripted by Lori Rosene-Gambino from a story she co-wrote with director Jan Komasa, ANNIVERSARY shows political […]Read On »

Rating: R Stars: Landry Bennett, Madison Lintz, Amy Hargreaves, Jake Weber, Erik Bloomquist, Carol Cadby, Blaque Fowler, Adam Weppler, Marlee Eaton Writers: Erik Bloomquist & Carson Bloomquist Director: Erik Bloomquist Distributor: Cineverse Release Date: October 31, 2025 SELF-HELP is a refreshingly odd psychological thriller that has elements of true-crime shows but is considerably weirder than most. Directed by Erik Bloomquist and written by the helmer and his brother Carson, SELF-HELP starts with a startling incident in which little Olivia (Marlee Eaton) sneaks away from her birthday party to see where her mother Rebecca (Amy Hargreaves) has gone. The upshot is […]Read On »

Quincy Dunn-Baker, Margaret Cho, Riki Lindhome, Tomás Matos, Thomas “Nina West” Levitt, Jack Haven, Cheyenne Jackson, Dominique Jackson, Shaunette Renée Wilson, Becca Blackwell, Eve Lindley, Karan Brar, Tom Savini, Julie J Writers: Tina Romero & Erin Judge Director: Tina Romero Distributor: IFC/Shudder Release Date: October 24, 2025 (theatrical) When your personal father is also the acknowledged father of the zombie genre, that would seem to confer certain rights and responsibilities. Tina Romero, daughter of George A. Romero, seems to take these seriously even though she mixes humor into her feature directing debut, […]Read On »

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Jamie Costa, Emalia, Indianna Sparke, Brooke Marsden, Jet Tranter, Geoff Imrie Writer: Tom Evans Director: Luke Sparke Distributor: Signature Entertainment Release Date: October 3, 2025 (VOD) SCURRY takes place in real time. It is also made to look like it’s shot in one continuous take, although viewers familiar with how these things are done will notice those helpful optical swerves into black walls and the like. SCURRY begins mid-catastrophe, as the upper floor of an office building shudders while workers try to flee and at least one is grabbed and bloodily killed by something we don’t […]Read On »

Rating: R Stars: Camille Sullivan, Sarah Durn, Brendan Sexton III, Charlie Talbert, Robin Bartlett, Caisey Cole, Anthony Baldasare, Eric Francis Melaragni, Michael Beach, Keith David, Emily Bennett, Derek Mears Writer: Chris Stuckmann, story by Samantha Elizabeth & Chris Stuckmann Director: Chris Stuckmann Distributor: Neon Release Date: October 24, 2025 SHELBY OAKS derives part of the power for its early sections by being unpredictable. Writer/director Chris Stuckmann, who developed the story with Samantha Elizabeth, keeps us guessing who we should be afraid for and what we should be afraid of. By the time Stuckmann and the film zero in on a […]Read On »

Rating: R Stars: Mason Thames, Madeleine McGraw, Ethan Hawke, Jeremy Davies, Demián Bichir, Miguel Mora, Arianna Rivas, Maev Beaty, Graham Abbey Writers: Scott Derrickson & C. Robert Cargill, based on the short story by Joe Hill Director: Scott Derrickson Distributor: Universal Release Date: October 17, 2025 BLACK PHONE 2, the sequel to 2021’s THE BLACK PHONE, could informally be called A NIGHTMARE ON BLACK PHONE STREET. We spend most of BLACK PHONE 2 at Camp Alpine Lake rather than in suburbia (where the first film took place), but there’s still the scenario of a murderer of kids, now dead himself, […]Read On »

Movie Review: GOOD FORTUNE

GOOD FORTUNE movie review | ©2025 Lionsgate

Rating: R Stars: Seth Rogen, Aziz Ansari, Keanu Reeves, Keke Palmer, Sandra Oh, Stephen McKinley Henderson Writer: Aziz Ansari Director: Aziz Ansari Distributor: Lionsgate Release Date: October 17, 2025 In GOOD FORTUNE, writer/director Aziz Ansari takes the basic premise of IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE and swirls it together with TRADING PLACES. Ansari adds enough twists so that GOOD FORTUNE isn’t a carbon copy of either, while using Keanu Reeves’s comedic style to maximum effect. Reeves plays Gabriel, an angel with oddly short, fluffy wings. His job is to protect people from the consequences of texting while driving. As an unseen, […]Read On »
