Rating: R Stars: Alex Roe, Maddie Hasson, Marco Pigossi, Andra Nechita, Clayton Spencer, Elaine Reis Writer: Joshua Friedlander Director: Mercedes Bryce Morgan Distributor: Bleecker Street Release Date: October 3, 2025 BONE LAKE is an erotic thriller, an entry in the horror subgenre of predatory couples who get off on terrorizing other couples. It’s reasonably entertaining, although the heroes are so dense and the villains so overconfident in their appeal that we’re not sure whether or not it’s intended as an example of yet another genre: parody. We start out seeing a naked man (Clayton Spencer) and woman (Elaine Reis) running […]Read On »

HELL HOUSE LLC.: LINEAGE movie poster | ©2025 Shudder/Terror Films

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Elizabeth Vermilyea, Sierra Sawka, Mike Sutton, Joe Bandelli, Nicholas Stoesser, Emily Fan, Victoria Andrunik, Kayla Berejikian Writer: Stephen Cognetti Director: Stephen Cognetti Distributor: Shudder/Terror Films Release Date: October 3, 2025 (Shudder) There is something impressive about writer/director Stephen Cognetti’s ability to inject just enough changes into a formula to keep things lively, while maintaining the elements that make a franchise hang together. However, he presses his luck with HELL HOUSE LLC: LINEAGE, as it refers a little overmuch to its predecessors, and ends on a cliffhanger. HELL HOUSE LLC: LINEAGE is the fifth film Cognetti has […]Read On »

ALL THE DEVILS ARE HERE | ©2025 Republic Pictures

Rating: R Stars: Eddie Marsan, Sam Claflin, Burn Gorman, Tienne Simon, Suki Waterhouse, Rory Kinnear Writer: John Patrick Dover Director: Barnaby Roper Distributor: Republic Pictures Release Date: September 26, 2025 ALL THE DEVILS ARE HERE begins with a long shot of an isolated two-story farmhouse in the English countryside. We hear men’s voices, then gunfire. One of the things that we later realize is that this scene is not repeated, as we expect it to be, in the third act. Ronnie Blake (Eddie Marsan) starts out speaking to us in voiceover. He wants to tell us some things. It will […]Read On »
