- DirectorJean-Pierre JeunetStarsIsabelle NantyElsa ZylbersteinClaude PerronA group of bickering suburbanites find themselves stuck together when an android uprising causes their well intentioned household robots to lock them in for their own safety.Suffers in comparison with Jeunet’s earlier work. The retro future of Bigbug simply does not look as tactile and real as the grungy dystopia of Delicatessen or The City of Lost Children. One can do wonders with digital effects, but it takes a lot of doing to make them look like physical objects that take up space.
I think on revisiting I may warm to it a bit, but there’s certainly no hurry. - DirectorTi WestStarsMia GothJenna OrtegaBrittany SnowIn 1979, a group of young filmmakers set out to make an adult film in rural Texas, but when their reclusive, elderly hosts catch them in the act, the crew find themselves fighting for their lives.

- DirectorB.J. NovakStarsB.J. NovakBoyd HolbrookLio TiptonA writer from New York City attempts to solve the murder of a girl he hooked up with and travels down south to investigate the circumstances of her death and discover what happened to her.4/10 actually feels really generous.
And lo, I have gone back and made it 3/10.
BJ Novak would like us all to know that he has a lot on his mind. He has thoughts, like, on the opioid epidemic. And the red state-blue state divide. Gun violence. And Q-Anon, and other derangements of the post-truth limbo our interconnected world has made. And perhaps the most canny - DirectorZach CreggerStarsGeorgina CampbellBill SkarsgårdJustin LongA woman staying at an Airbnb discovers that the house she has rented is not what it seems.
- DirectorTi WestStarsMia GothDavid CorenswetTandi WrightIn 1918, a young woman on the brink of madness pursues stardom in a desperate attempt to escape the drudgery, isolation, and lovelessness of life on her parents' farm.

- DirectorDamien LeoneStarsLauren LaVeraDavid Howard ThorntonElliott FullamAfter being resurrected by a sinister entity, Art the Clown returns to the timid town of Miles County where he targets a teenage girl and her younger brother on Halloween night.Terrifier 2 is much much too long. This is a movie that could probably lose an hour out of its runtime and be better for it. Way too much fat.

When someone turns up dead, Detective Benoit Blanc is put on the case.I don’t WANT to dislike Rian Johnson. I liked Brick. I liked Looper. It’s not without issues but of the new Star Wars movies The Last Jedi is… better than most. Rogue One is the only one I would put on the same tier.
And I liked Knives Out. Decently. But I would say that Brick is easily still his best movie, and every subsequent effort has not quite been as good as I hoped that it would be. - DirectorTommy WirkolaStarsDavid HarbourJohn LeguizamoBeverly D'AngeloAn elite team of mercenaries breaks into a family compound on Christmas Eve, taking everyone hostage. However, they aren't prepared for a surprise combatant: Santa Claus is on the grounds, and he's about to show why this Nick is no saint.
