If you like a little laughter with your thrills, settle in for a snappy, dark comedy thriller with Brea Grant’s 12 Hour Shift. Set in a hospital during one very gnarly, unrelenting night, the film stars Angela Bettis as a nurse whose black market organ-selling scheme goes catastrophically off track when her not-to-bright but extremely determined co...
Director John Hyams impressed the hell out of me with this simple, sparse and incredibly effective thriller about a young woman trying to escape a serial killer in the woods. Jules Willcox stars as one of the year's very best movie heroines, while Marc Menchaca (The Outsider) is nothing less than chilling as the sadistic stalker who gets off on hun...
One of the few must-watch true crime documentaries of 2020, American Murder: The Family Next Door takes on an altogether more eerie and unsettling texture given the way it is presented. Jenny Popplewell’s unflinching doc looks at the Watts family murders, which took place in 2018 in suburban Colorado. Utilizing body cam footage, surveillance video ...
It would've been fascinating to see this film released in theaters, as I suspect it would've been laughed out of the multiplex or hailed as a masterpiece. The truth is more complicated, as Antebellum is neither a failure nor a triumph. Directed by activist filmmakers Gerard Bush and Christopher Renz, Antebellum stars Janelle Monáe in dual roles as ...
Honestly, this was the best movie that I saw at the 2020 Sundance Film Festival. The story is so incredible, I don't even think you could write it. Such is life... and in this case, death, as implied by the title. Directed by Ryan White (The Keepers), Assassins follows two young women who are tricked into assassinating Kim Jong-nam, the half-brothe...
This movie is bonkers. I don't know what else to tell you. It's a "weird western" from Brazilian filmmakers Kleber Mendonca Filho and Juliano Dornelles about a small rural town where some strange stuff starts to go down following the death of its 94-year-old matriarch. It all culminates in a bloody standoff between the town's residents and a group ...
Part Home Alone and part violent slasher film, Becky takes Lulu Wilson (The Haunting of Hill House) and tosses her into a meat grinder with a gang of hulking neo-Nazis led by Kevin freaking James. Wilson plays the titular Becky, whose home is invaded by said thugs on the hunt for some kind of key that happens to be stashed on the property. Rather t...
If you like your thrillers psychological, settle in for the emotionally wrenching, anxiety-inducing Black Bear. An unflinching examination of creative vanity and the emotional minefields some creators build and walk through in pursuit of their art, Lawrence Michael Levine’s horror-tinged psychological drama stars Aubrey Plaza in the most striking d...
Writer/director team Bridget Savage Cole and Danielle Krudy’s Blow the Man Down is a strong newcomer to the thriller category. Very much the love child of Fargo and a mournful sea shanty, Blow the Man Down transports us to a seaside town in Maine where two sisters, Priscilla and Mary Beth Connolly (played by Sophie Lowe and Morgan Saylor),must figu...
This strangely timely film starring Mary J. Blige follows four New Orleans cops who are haunted by a vengeful spirit after the death of black youth and the subsequent police cover-up. In a strange way, this supernatural revenge movie felt practically cathartic this summer, seeing as how it sees out-of-control cops get their comeuppance. I don't typ...
Dec 29, 2020 · Lost Girls. Possibly the harshest, most distressing film on this list, Lost Girls adapts Robert Kolker’s true-crime book Lost Girls: An Unsolved American Mystery, which chronicles the murders of several young, female sex workers at the hands of the unidentified Long Island Serial Killer.
