Movie Reviews

Twisters (dir. by Lee Isaac Chung) / very nearly a perfect example of the genre with its violent CG tornadoes, a nonsensical love story, and the dirtbag charm that oozes from every pore of Glen Campbell

Alien Romulus (dir. by Fede Álvarez) / not worth paying the money to see in the theater

Dune: Part Two (dir. by Denis Villeneuve) / Dune 2 is a war movie. In a time when the news is saturated with images of war and genocide, seeing manufactured images of death and destruction in a big Hollywood production rang a little hollow

Saltburn (dir. by Emerald Fennell) / scathing examination of wealth and class and the twisted nature of obsession

Witchboard (dir. by Kevin Tenney) / Witchboard explores the idea of a malevolent spirit using the Ouija board to open the door to humanity. This process of grooming a human for possession by the evil spirit was mentioned a few times in the film and referred to as “progressive entrapment.” It’s fairly clinical language for some college students to be throwing around in the face of supernatural horror. Those little idiosyncrasies are what make this bad movie so good to watch
