“V/H/S Halloween”
A gleefully unhinged collection that proves the franchise still knows how to surprise, shock, and entertain.
“F$&k My Son!”
A John Waters by way of Gwar nightmare that’s simultaneously hilarious, revolting, and nihilistically committed to bad taste.
“Retreat”
An unsettling psychological thriller with groundbreaking execution, though not all of its bold swings fully land.
“Swiped”
A pretty standard and shallow startup biopic that features a big idea, early success, toxic fallout, reinvention, and redemption.
