A film coming out of all the major festivals this year with rave reviews has been Martin McDonagh's latest film, The Banshees of Inisherin (2022). Being described as dark, absurd, and riotously funny, I knew that I absolutely had to go out and see this film. The festival crowd was not wrong: The Banshees of …
James Gray's latest film, Armageddon Time (2022), is one that has completely flown under a lot of people's radars. Personally, I had no idea this movie was coming until I saw a trailer for it in front of Don't Worry Darling (2022) back in September. That said, as soon as I saw the trailer and …
Every year, November marks the kick off for the season of the major Oscar contenders. This year started off strong back in March with Everything, Everywhere, All At Once (2022), The Batman (2022), and The Northman (2022)—all of which have remained in my top three of the year up until this point. Half a year …
Over the course of my review hiatus, I watched a lot of shows and movies that I fully intend on catching up on with my reviews. I also read many fantastic books, and for my return to adaptability reviews, I decided to start with the novel that immediately made its way into my all-time favorites: …

My long hiatus from writing reviews came after last October, where I reviewed a horror film, show, or book everyday within the month. The massive amount of work I put into that, mixed with the increased toxicity towards film reviews (more on that after Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (2022) releases next month), caused me to …

It's been a couple of months since I last sat down to write out a review for a film. Despite all the great films and shows that have come since my last review, I haven't really had the motivation to share my thoughts on them. Then I went to the IMAX Fan Screening of Daniel …

From monster movies of the early years of Hollywood, to the Hitchcock era of psychological thrillers, to the occult and slasher flicks of the 70's and 80's, to the films of today, the horror genre has constantly evolved over the years. Out of all the different styles of horror flicks, the subgenre that I think …
A24 is a studio that has become known for its artsy, psychological horror films (The Killing of a Sacred Deer (2017), It Comes at Night (2017), Hereditary (2018), Midsommar (2019), The Lighthouse (2019)), and I myself have loved/been deeply disturbed by most of them. So, I was very excited to see their newest film from …
As I mentioned in my Last Night in Soho review on Friday, I love directors who have an artistic style that is distinctly theirs, and Wes Anderson is one filmmaker where his cinematic art is very unique to him. Wes Anderson films are must-see events for cinephiles as they are all works of quirky, comedic …
