The popularity and quality of horror TV shows have fluctuated over the years, with some of the creepiest and most well-received airing from approximately the 1930s to the 1980s.

I Think Edgar Wright’s Original Unused Ant-Man Movie Idea Could Be The Perfect Way To Redeem The MCU Series After Quantumania

Mon, 27 Jan 2025 03:00:29 +0000

It's no secret that the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) is in a weird place after the Infinity Saga concluded, but funny enough, I think Ant-Man could be the key to fixing things again if the MCU were to revisit Edgar Wright's original idea.

Intriguingly, that appears to be a theme for the MCU.

Sundance 2025 Review: BRIDES, Empathetic, Sympathetic Cautionary Tale

Sun, 26 Jan 2025 22:02:05 +0000

Deftly directed by Nadia Fall from Suhayla El-Bushra's multi-layered screenplay, Brides examines a relatively recent, ripped-from-the-headlines subject ripe for sensationalism and exploitation. Namely, the subject is Western-born or -raised Muslim women who left the West behind for the illusory promises of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS). The film considers the subject with an admirable mix of sympathy, empathy, and compassion. Asking the “why?” without explicit judgment or implicit bias, Fall crafts a sensitively moving film centered on two young women, Doe (Ebada Hassan) and Muna (Safiyya Ingar), and the momentous, possibly fatal decision to leave the West and all its flaws and failures for the illusory promises of the Middle East. We meet Doe and Muna already committed to...

Sun, 26 Jan 2025 21:32:04 +0000

Nothing, positively nothing, good comes out of purchasing a decades-old farmhouse in the middle of Wales. Or anywhere else, for that matter. In Bryn Chainey’s contribution to the ever-expanding folk horror sub-genre, Rabbit Trap, Darcy (Oscar nominee Dev Patel) and Daphne Davenport (Rosy McEwan), a sound recordist and an experimental/electronic music artist (imagine a cross between genre pioneers Brian Eno and Laurie Anderson), respectively, purchase said farmhouse somewhere in Wales circa 1976, ostensibly so Daphne can complete work on her latest album and Darcy, husband and chief assistant, gathers sounds from the natural and human-made world outside their farmhouse. The “nothing good” part happens almost immediately: rambling through the nearby woods, Darcy crosses a mushroom circle, records strange, discordant sounds, and experiences a...
