There’s something deceptively simple yet downright unnerving about Exit 8, the latest film from director Genki Kawamura (April, Come She Will), who works alongside co-writers Kotake Create and ...
Sam Raimi's spooky old cabin—isolated in the deep, dark, twisted woods of rural America—somehow exists outside of time. More than forty years after The Evil Dead first unleashed its demonic madness, that rotting shack ...
If rock 'n' roll had a creation myth, it would begin here. Before the sold-out stadiums, before the tales of excess became larger than life, before Led Zeppelin grew into a band that could level arenas with a single power chord ...
There’s a dangerous little idea at the center of Obsession: what if you could actually have the thing you thought you wanted most? Not a version of it. Not a compromise. The full, terrifying package. Turns out, that idea ...

Twenty years later, the heels are just as high, the stakes somehow higher, and yes—the coffee order is still bafflingly specific. The Devil Wears Prada 2 slips back into the office-place chaos of Runway Magazine like it ...
There’s so much to say about this bona fide classic. The cast. The director. The history. The relevance. The awards. I’m not sure where to start. But let’s give it a go. Martin Scorsese is a filmmaker I’ve always ...
1990’s Misery is one of the finest book to screen King adaptations of all time, in my humble opinion. While this new dearth of King adaptions continues unabated with varying degrees of success or abject failure (*cough: The Stand), no one has (as yet) touched it, or even broached remaking it ...
Superman Returns is the greatest Superman film of all time. Directed by Bryan Singer and starring Brandon Routh, Kevin Spacey, and Kate Bosworth, Superman Returns is fantastic in just about every way possible ...
I've never been one of those people who worship at the altar of James Cameron. In fact, I can count the Cameron films I genuinely love on one hand: The Terminator, Aliens, The Abyss, Terminator 2: Judgment Day, and ...
I'll be honest—before F1: The Movie, my knowledge of Formula 1 was pretty much limited to "those are the really expensive race cars that go insanely fast while glamorous people in sunglasses pretend this all looks perfectly normal ...
I swore to myself I would never watch this movie again. It affected me. There was total silence in the car on the way home. We were both just so . . . numb. That's how I remembered my first experience with Schindler's List. Not ...
Life finds a way.” The first time the T. rex steps out of its paddock, the world stops. Rain hammers the glass; the goat leg drops onto the sunroof, and then those pupils dilate, those nostrils flare, and the king announces himself with a roar that seems to shake ...
There’s something deliciously off about Normal, the kind of off that makes you grin before things inevitably go sideways. Directed by Ben Wheatley and written by Derek Kolstad (The Nobody and a couple of the ...
From its hellish production to its being eclipsed by Star Wars when originally released, and long before reality television turned impossible roads into entertainment, there was William Friedkin’s Sorcerer. This might be one ...
Consider yourself warned: The Drama isn’t a date-night movie. It’s a relationship stress test disguised as a romantic comedy. If you decide to test your loyalties, then check your partner’s text messages and keep a ...
There are horror films that invite you to solve the mystery. Then there are horror films that dare you to survive the style. Tenebrae is unapologetically the latter. Released in 1982 ...
1990’s Misery is one of the finest book to screen King adaptations of all time, in my humble opinion. While this new dearth of King adaptions continues unabated with varying degrees of success or abject failure (*cough: The Stand), no one has (as yet) touched it, or even broached remaking it ...
I can't remember the first time I saw E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial. Like a lot of people my age, it feels like a movie that's simply always been there. Every few years I revisit it expecting to notice something new, and every time ...
Some comedies fade with time. The Money Pit isn't one of them. Four decades after its theatrical debut, this 1986 classic is still one of the funniest movies ever made about the dream of homeownership gone spectacularly ...
There are war films that thrive on explosions and battlefield spectacle, and then there are those that understand the greatest casualty of war is often measured in quieter moments. Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo, directed by ...
Crime 101 is both ageless and of the moment: a sleek, intoxicating knockout from writer-director Bart Layton, who pulls source material from Don Winslow. Layton, best known for his merging of fact and fiction in American Animals and The Imposter, goes full-on ...
Every filmmaker has a movie that defines them. For Steven Spielberg, you could make the case for Jaws. Or E.T. Or Schindler's List. But if you're looking for the film where every one of his instincts collided—suspense, humor ...
Prepare yourself! They Will Kill You is the kind of movie that kicks the door in, paints the walls with arterial spray, and then cracks a wicked grin while making you clean up the mess. Directed by Kirill Sokolov and co-written with ...
The first time I saw Stanley Kubrick’s A Clockwork Orange, I was in seventh grade. It came from a local Mom & Pop video store. I remember grabbing popcorn, thinking I was about to watch some old sci-fi movie people ...
I was 14 when Batman came out in the summer of 1989, and honestly, I don’t think I was ever the same after that. I probably saw it 20 times. That bat symbol was all over the place. Kids wore it on their shirts, put it ...
1990’s Misery is one of the finest book to screen King adaptations of all time, in my humble opinion. While this new dearth of King adaptions continues unabated with varying degrees of success or abject failure (*cough: The Stand), no one has (as yet) touched it, or even broached remaking it ...
The best thing about Steven Spielberg: The Spotlight Collection is that it reminds you how restless he was as a filmmaker. One movie terrifies you. The next one breaks your heart. Then he turns around and ...
As the opening film in Steven Spielberg: The Spotlight Collection, Jaws feels less like the first chapter of a career retrospective and more like a detonation. Before the aliens, before the dinosaurs, before the archaeologists ...
