Devotees of haunted attractions and all things horror will get a kick out of this fanboy documentary about America’s first Halloween theme park, Spooky World. Above all, it’s a love story about the art of scaring people.
“The Royal Hotel”
Accurately portrays the natural female tendency to excuse bad male behavior and a woman’s reluctance to trust her own instincts, both of which really hit home.
“A Guide to Becoming an Elm Tree”
A haunting, slow burning Irish ghost fable that will speak to the darkest parts of your soul, if you let it.
“Lee”
An imperfect yet admirable portrait of a fiercely independent, headstrong woman who changed the world of photojournalism during World War II. How exciting to finally have her story told on film.
“Nyad”
An inspiring true story that features one of the most authentic big screen portrayals of a complex female friendship.
“The Holdovers”
Painfully honest and sentimental, the film strikes a delicate balance of melancholy and humor. It’s like a hug for those who could really, really use one.
