Lilly Lives Alone (2025) 55% EDIT “Creates a deeply disturbing world in which grief grows into madness against the backdrop of small-town America ... offers an empathetic character study of a grieving mother. ” – ScreenAnarchy Aug 26, 2025 Full Review Ebony & Ivory (2024) 73% EDIT “Fun and playful and experimental. ... My advice is to see this in a packed theater or with a large group of friends. If you do see it at home, make sure you have lots of off-brand soda and cocoa on hand. You may even need a bit of the ole doobie-woobie. ” – ScreenAnarchy Aug 14, 2025 Full Review MadS (2024) 94% EDIT “A timely piece of cinema: larger forces imposing murderous mayhem on people who are just trying to live their lives. This is what we all fear in 2024: the dissolution of humanity into barbarism and madness.” – ScreenAnarchy Oct 3, 2024 Full Review Daddy's Head (2024) 84% EDIT “Exists in a liminal space where both healing and horror must be reckoned with. ... One of the more effective horrors of the year. ” – ScreenAnarchy Sep 25, 2024 Full Review What Happened to Dorothy Bell? (2024) 86% EDIT “Engages the horrors that can often accompany aging. ... Generational culpability takes on a larger than life resonance and dares us to examine our own forgotten history. ” – ScreenAnarchy Sep 25, 2024 Full Review The Banshees of Inisherin (2022) 96% EDIT “The true genius of the screenplay, performances and direction lies in the way the stakes escalate, drawing others into the shared madness of the two men. ” – ScreenAnarchy Oct 20, 2022 Full Review Smile (2022) 80% EDIT “Smile is at its most powerful when aspects of it whisper a central truth to the audience: some things cannot be recovered from.” – ScreenAnarchy Oct 6, 2022 Full Review He's Watching (2022) 90% EDIT “Estes didn't just keep busy during the pandemic; he kept his family together and produced a vital document of the psychic weight felt by American society in crisis.” – ScreenAnarchy Jul 27, 2022 Full Review She Will (2021) 85% EDIT “I really can’t recommend She Will enough. But I recommend a second viewing even more. ” – ScreenAnarchy Jul 14, 2022 Full Review Family Dinner (2022) 100% EDIT “The film is well written, especially well-directed, and perfectly cast. The building dread that finally overtakes the narrative erupts into expected violence. ” – ScreenAnarchy Jun 23, 2022 Full Review The Wave (2019) 68% EDIT “As movies featuring bad drug trips go, it ranks with the most jarring. But it also uses that premise to craft a very funny and insightful story, and it would be a shame if you missed any of it.” – ScreenAnarchy Dec 5, 2019 Full Review Bridgend (2016) 81% EDIT “This is no horror movie, though it does have a hell of a haunting finish.” – Chicago Reader Feb 11, 2016 Full Review
