With observational humor and an original screenplay that’s perceptive about human nature, this low-budget, slacker ghost story succeeds on many levels.

“Knock at the Cabin”
M. Night Shyamalan’s directorial choices feel as amateurish and contrived as ever in this mediocre, forgettable, apocalyptic psychological thriller.
“Pianoforte”
A conventional documentary for people with an appreciation of classical music. It’s somewhat inspiring but as a piece of entertainment, it’s mostly draining.
“Onyx the Fortuitous and the Talisman of Souls”
This surreal, cartoonish, and goofy movie is destined to become a cult classic among midnight audiences.
“Shayda”
This intimate story is one of female empowerment and endurance in a cultural system that often treats females as second class citizens.
“Young. Wild. Free.”
A mostly by-the-book story of an ill-fated romance, but the vivid cinematography and chemistry between the two leads gives the film a unique, intoxicating vibe.
