Lost in the Reel's video review for Bottoms Bottoms comes from second-time feature director and writer Emma Seligman, whose first film Shiva Baby was a critical and cult favorite just three years ago. Now, I was in the minority and did not love Shiva Baby like everyone else seemed to, but I
Shikimori's Not Just a Cutie offers a rather unique take on the romantic comedy story between a girl and a boy. For starters: the female Miyako Shikimori has a distinctly masculine personality compared to the male Yuuki Izumi's distinctly feminine personality. For the rest: there are many strong
I would best describe Lycoris Recoil as a modern and light-hearted take on the girls with guns genre. Basically: it's like if you took Gunslinger Girl, and made it not morbidly depressing. Quite the opposite, really. It even has a healthy dose of yuri in it. There's a reason why almost everyone has
Dragon Age: Absolution is an interesting mix of epic fantasy adventure and a heist story. However, it never really rises above being a decent story. The only thing that saves this adult animated series from mediocrity, in my opinion, is a combination of likable main cast and its good LGBTQ
Focus Features Spoiler Alert is based on the memoir of a longer name: Spoiler Alert: The Hero Dies: A Memoir of Love, Loss, and Other Four-Letter Words. The film stars Jim Parsons (Big Bang Theory) and Ben Aldrige (Fleabag) as Michael Ausiello and Kit Cowan, respectively. Michael Ausiello is a real

Lost in the Reel's video review for They/Them A horror movie that takes place in a gay conversion camp with an ensemble of out-and-proud young performers? From a three-time Oscar-nominated writer? And produced by Blumhouse, who knows a thing or two about this particular genre? And to top it all
In a place as vast as the Amazon, it makes sense that a giant snake would be the ultimate predator. Feasibly, a giant snake could dwell in the waters of the Amazon River; after all, with how many new species are still being discovered each year it really would not be too far-fetched. Beware Boiúna
Onimusha: Way of the Sword is a franchise revival that feels like it understands what made the original games so much fun. The gameplay is fast, frantic, and often delightfully violent, while the game throws a surprisingly large number of systems and mechanics at you. Thankfully, most of them feel
Anna (Jasmine Trinca) is a wealthy woman who has a beautiful family in the 90s in Italy. The story, split throughout time with flashbacks to their lives in the 90s and up through 2026, allows the audience to see what Anna inflicts on her family through each decade. The Spiral gives Anna an
