The Cramps: A Period Piece (2025) Emilie Black This is one of those indie films that makes the viewer want to see so much more from its filmmaker...

Growing Pains (2024) Emilie Black Overall, Growing Pain is a decently made film with some talent involved. Deanna Tarraza is the highlight of the whole film and elevates all her scenes to make the film as a whole an easier and more agreeable watching experience.

Crumb Catcher (2023) Emilie Black Overall, Crumb Catcher is a film that likely appeals to a fairly small audience and one that most folks will likely not want to rewatch again and again.

The Beast to Die (1980) Emilie Black There is a lot to unpack here, and the film does so quite well. It’s a solid post-war film about the damage of war on people near and far from it and how one may deal with their own damage in the worse ways possible.

Hold the Fort (2025) Emilie Black Hold the Fort is a tight horror comedy that wastes no time getting to the red stuff and the humor, manages to maintain these going throughout and make for a fun time for all.

Immortal (Ad Vitam) (2004) Emilie Black Immortal is one of those comic book adaptations that took a fully developed universe [...] did its best to try and make it an immortal cinematic experience, but its horribly badly aged computer-generated effects and images are just not on point anymore.

Hellcat (2025) Emilie Black Hellcat is a worthy watch for those willing to bypass the predictability of the twists and the one groan-inducing character bit about the lead character. The film has solid performances, some good writing and direction, and solid cinematography.

The Wailing (2024) Emilie Black A bit of a tighter script, some more decisive direction, and more pinpointed performances would have made a world of difference here. As it is, the film is middle of the road at best.

To Kill a Wolf (2024) Emilie Black The acting and overall look of the film are strong while a few issues can be found in the writing and direction, but in general, it’s a decent watch once one forgets the fairytale connection.

Perpetrator (2023) Emilie Black Perpetrator is one of those films that feels evergreen with most of the issues and themes it touches upon while giving a nicely creepy story that will connect with a ton of viewers. Th

His Motorbike, Her Island (1986) Emilie Black His Motorbike, Her Island is a drama that is worth tracking down, one where the characters are well-developed and acted, the writing and direction are on point, the cinematography is lovely. T

Flesh of the Unforgiven (2024) Emilie Black Flesh of the Unforgiven is an uneven film with a lot of potential, not all of which gets to be fully realized.
Posted Aug 28, 2025  Edit critic review
Brute 1976 (2025) Emilie Black Brute 1976 is a violent mix of desert fiends, fashion folks, and what happens when people are left alone outside of society for too long.
Posted Aug 28, 2025  Edit critic review
The War Between (2024) Emilie Black The story is slow moving and made for a very specific audience that should love it.
Posted Aug 27, 2025  Edit critic review
Light Up (2024) Emilie Black ... a documentary that will connect deeply with some...
Posted Aug 22, 2025  Edit critic review
Moses (2025) Emilie Black The intention of showing another side of homelessness, one that is human, comes across quite well and makes the film, flaws and all, something to see.
Posted Jul 26, 2025  Edit critic review
Bullets, Fangs and Dinner at 8 (2015) Emilie Black Bullets, Fangs and Dinner at 8 is a film made with good intentions that has a few really good scenes, a couple of good performances, but also has a boatload of issues.

The Silent Planet (2024) Emilie Black This is a solid science fiction character piece that deserves to be seen.
Posted Jul 15, 2025  Edit critic review
The Wide West (2025) Emilie Black ... the pace is fast, there are no lulls, no sequences that kill the momentum, it’s all very quick and easy to follow.

Dead on the Vine (undefined) Emilie Black The story is interesting and clever, it’s well shot, and the performances are on point.
Posted Jun 03, 2025  Edit critic review
C.H.U.D. (1984) Felix Vasquez Jr. I respect "C.H.U.D." for its legacy and eccentric cast, but it wastes its great concept, and chance to really turn the C.H.U.D. in to so much more than a memorable acronym.

Panda Plan (2024) Emilie Black The film is entertaining, it has funny moments, and it basically woks. It’s predictable but it’s not terrible.
Posted Apr 16, 2025  Edit critic review
Hello Beautiful (2025) Emilie Black While seeing the qualities here, this film is not one that is the right type for this viewer so it’s simple ok with a few emotional moments that land and some interesting performances.
Posted Apr 16, 2025  Edit critic review
Minted (2023) Emilie Black There is a lot in here, but overall, the resulting documentary is well-balanced and decently put together.
Posted Apr 14, 2025  Edit critic review
The Problem of the Hero (2023) Emilie Black The Problem with the Hero is a decent film that ends up being a bit frustrating as it never seems to elevate itself beyond something decent, beyond a passable film that folks will watch at random and forget within a day.
Posted Apr 07, 2025  Edit critic review
¡Quba! (2025) Emilie Black There is a lot in here, but most importantly, the film shows the power of love and humanity in adversity.
Posted Apr 07, 2025  Edit critic review
Voices Carry (2025) Emilie Black ... a solid first for them and for their audience that could have use a bit tighter editing if anything to make it completely stellar. 
Posted Apr 02, 2025  Edit critic review
Cannibal Mukbang (2023) Emilie Black Cannibal Mukbang is a solid directorial debut, one that is well-crafted, entertaining, and just a bit extra gooey for those who love plenty of blood in their horror films.
Posted Apr 02, 2025  Edit critic review
Laws of Man (2024) Emilie Black Laws of Man is a decent film that entertains but doesn’t leave much of a trace once it’s over.
Posted Feb 10, 2025  Edit critic review
Man With No Past (2025) Emilie Black Man with No Past is a solid mid-range action drama with touches of sci-fi. The action bits are solid, the acting works so the drama works, and the looks of it all is really good

Escape (2024) Emilie Black The cinematography is a high point of the film while the rest shines within its created images.

A Legend (2024) Emilie Black The film is entertaining and fun but not particularly memorable as a whole.
Posted Feb 10, 2025  Edit critic review
Into the Deep (2025) Emilie Black Overall, a solid thriller with good action scenes, and just enough shark action to call it a shark film.
Posted Feb 10, 2025  Edit critic review
American Trash (2024) Emilie Black It’s decently written, directed, and acted from the lead cast. The film shows that LaSardo is on his way to becoming is a solid film writer and director after having been in over 175 films as an actor.
Posted Feb 10, 2025  Edit critic review
Thou Shalt Kill (2025) Emilie Black Thou Shalt Kill is a solid thriller with some truly tense scenes and acting that really sells the story.

Posted Feb 10, 2025  Edit critic review
Survive (2024) Emilie Black There is something good in here, but it’s not enough to make the film more than passable.
Posted Jan 15, 2025  Edit critic review
The Count of Monte Cristo (2024) Emilie Black Somehow, 3 hours is both too long and not long enough, the story feels odd here and like something is missing for most of the runtime.
Posted Jan 09, 2025  Edit critic review
The Damned (2024) Emilie Black The Damned is a creepy slow burn film with a folk atmosphere and solid performances and cinematography.
Posted Jan 09, 2025  Edit critic review
Lady Like (2024) Emilie Black Lady Camden is a poignant and touching documentary
Posted Jan 09, 2025  Edit critic review
Children of the Pines (2024) Emilie Black Children of the Pines is one of those films that sounds great on paper but loses in execution.
Posted Dec 28, 2024  Edit critic review
Despiser (2003) Emilie Black The writing and direction need a bit more time cooking and so does the cinematography. The performances are ok throughout and from every cast member, nothing really standing out here.
Posted Dec 28, 2024  Edit critic review
He Never Left (2023) Emilie Black He Never Left attempts to do something different with the slasher genre and at times it works, but overall, the film ends up a bit forgettable which is unfortunate. There is talent here but it doesn’t seem to be used to the best of its potential.
Posted Dec 28, 2024  Edit critic review
Drive Back (2024) Emilie Black Drive Back is a simple yet effective suspense film with horror elements. It’s one that requires attention be paid to be enjoyed while this attention can backfire on it at times.
