“Summer of ’84” is proof that skilled horror filmmakers can shock, scare, and surprise audiences even when working with the familiar.

“The Miseducation of Cameron Post”
The natural, unforced sincerity is the heartbeat of this film, and it touched me on the deepest emotional level.
“Piercing”
Based on Ryu Murakami’s cult novel of the same name, “Piercing” is one of the most visually captivating and wickedly stylized films to premiere at the Sundance Film Festival this year.
“Pity”
Overall, this deadpan style isn’t fresh or new and feels downright lackluster even in the hands of an incredibly talented director and screenwriter.
“Arizona”
“Arizona” may be lacking in originality but it is thrilling, funny, silly and bloody, and I enjoyed every minute of it.
“Tiempo Compartido (Time Share)”
This is an intriguing film that’s different from much of the work coming out of Mexico. I just wish the project hadn’t hesitated to go a little deeper into the darkness.
