If you missed the release of the dystopian political thriller Anniversary over the weekend, no one would blame you. The movie was released with little to no promotion, with one theatrical trailer hitting the internet ahead of its release and virtually no TV spots airing to support its debut. The

Why do people say things like "Oh well Halloween was better in the 90s" or something like "Halloween sucks these days"? Other than nostalgia for an era bygone, I think there are several reasons why. Normally on Halloween, I like writing something that's uplifting or fun like a Top 10 Horror Movies
Back in 2018, director David Gordon Green brought Michael Myers back to the mainstream with Halloween, a direct sequel to John Carpenter's 1978 masterpiece. The decision was made to disregard all sequels after the first film, making it a PTSD story about how one night of unholy terror affected

The trailer for A24's The Drama does a great job of keeping things intentionally vague. We meet Charlie (Robert Pattinson) and Emma (Zendaya), a couple about to get married who seem like they know everything about each other… until they very clearly don’t. One drunken night at dinner with
