DeathOfAUnicorn4

Film Review – Death of a Unicorn

April 2nd, 2025 | POSTED BY Sarah Ksiazek

Unicorns are mythical creatures that commonly become kids’ obsessions, adorning the walls with pink bows and unicorns.  Unicorns typically are not associated with horror films, but Legend (1985) at least had them in the mix with some terrifying elements.  Death of a Unicorn (2025) attempts…

Film Review – Holland

March 30th, 2025 | POSTED BY Allen Almachar

I didn’t grow up in the Midwest as depicted in Holland (2025), but I was raised in a similarly small town. Many of the sights, sounds, and textures rang familiar to me. There’s the sense of community where everybody knew everybody else, one main street lined with…

Film Review – The Assessment

March 20th, 2025 | POSTED BY Allen Almachar

There are several themes running throughout The Assessment (2024). Sci-fi is at its best when it uses fantastical elements as a representation of real-world issues. In that sense, it should be commended. Director Fleur Fortune (in her feature length debut) crafts a stylish, feverish, and bizarre dystopian world. In…

Film Review – The Electric State

March 15th, 2025 | POSTED BY Allen Almachar

Anthony and Joe Russo’s directorial output post Avengers: Endgame (2019) have been, well, uneven to say the least. Sadly, that trend continues with The Electric State (2025). This is a big sci-fi adventure loaded with special effects, well-known stars, and plenty of splashy set pieces. And yet, it lacks thrills, excitement,…

Film Review – Opus

March 14th, 2025 | POSTED BY Sarah Ksiazek

Opus is a word with a more significant meaning—one that reverberates with the film’s characters and somewhat cockily could describe the film itself to its writer and director, Mark Anthony Green, who also refers to himself as MAG. With his background in interviewing important people…

Film Review – Seven Veils

March 6th, 2025 | POSTED BY Allen Almachar

“Art imitates Life,” as the saying goes. In the worst case scenario, the line between artistic expression and daily life gets blurred, where one affects the other and vice versa. That seems to be what writer/director Atom Egoyan is aiming for with his latest release, Seven Veils (2023). Here,…

Film Review – Queen of the Ring

March 6th, 2025 | POSTED BY Allen Almachar

Queen of the Ring (2024) tells the story of Mildred Burke (Emily Bett Rickards), who helped usher in the popularity of women’s professional wrestling in the 1930s and into the 1950s. We first meet Mildred as a single mother, living in Kansas working as a waitress…

Film Review – The Monkey

February 26th, 2025 | POSTED BY Allen Almachar

Some movies are just made to be viewed by large audiences. Responding to every joke, scare, thrill, or laugh simultaneously in a room full of strangers is one of life’s pure joys. In that regard, The Monkey (2025) should be viewed in the biggest theater with the…
