We've had haunted house movies. Sure, but have we had a haunted van movie? That's what Passenger amounts to at its most distilled form. This is a horror movie about a demonic force (the opposite of Saint Christopher) that has been chasing and killing travelers for hundreds of years. Basically, the
Though marital arts action cinema is vast and varied, it is rare for one to elevate the genre and push it forward. There have been few recently - The Raid comes to mind, and while not technically "martial arts" I'd argue John Wick counts - that feel as if something new and special is happening.
