Dust Bunny
(2025)
|
Rachel Shatto
|
Dust Bunny is a brilliant and lush kaleidoscope of color, bizarrely wonderful characters, and one giant killer bunny. It’s films like this for which the theatrical experience was created.

The Long Walk
(2025)
|
Rachel Shatto
|
The Long Walk is King at his very best: rife with characters to ache for and to despise, with shocking moments of depravity and transcendent humanity. The sacred and the profane, all wrapped up into an anti-fascist cautionary tale.

Together
(2025)
|
Rachel Shatto
|
'Together' is the most romantic, queerest, and funniest body horror film in recent memory. Brie and Franco's real-life chemistry shines through. It’s a rom-com for sickos, and that’s the highest compliment I can give a film.

The Ugly Stepsister
(2025)
|
Rachel Shatto
|
It’s darkly funny, naughty, and thought-provoking. It’s a clever use of the visual language of fairy tales to unpack our ingrained ideas of beauty and gender, while also presenting a truly entertaining yarn.

The First Omen
(2024)
|
Rachel Shatto
|
It’s an exploration of religious trauma and authoritarian assault on bodily autonomy and reproductive freedom that prove to be terrifyingly timely. It’s also just a wicked good time.

Alien: Romulus
(2024)
|
Rachel Shatto
|
The film pays homage to the entirety of the franchise, including the prequels, and feels a bit like Alvarez is playing the greatest hits — but this is nonetheless one of the most entertaining entries in the series.

Girls, this is the comedy we’ve been waiting for, so grab your besties and head to the cinema as soon as you can.

Lisa Frankenstein
(2024)
|

|
In 'Lisa Frankenstein,' Williams and Cody have unearthed a modern classic, and we can only hope that it’s just the first of many collaborations

Saw X
(2023)
|
Rachel Shatto
|
'SAW X' feels like a fresh start. It resets the playing board and sets a path forward for a deeper study of its iconic characters while introducing new obstacles for Kramer to slash, dash, and grind out of his way.

MaXXXine
(2024)
|

|
'MaXXXine' serves as a perfect end to a trilogy of films that feel like a true gift to horror and genre fans.

Sing Sing
(2023)
|
Rachel Shatto
|
The decision to feature the real prisoners recreating their own stories alongside professional actors — and in a dynamic, gritty, almost gonzo filmmaking style — makes for an especially unique experience.

Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes
(2024)
|
Rachel Shatto
|
After three films, it may have felt as though the Apes series had run its course, but through this latest chapter it has evolved and is ready to rule at the box office once again.

Scream VI

|
Scream 6 both celebrates its legacy and slashes its way into a new, exciting, and gruesome era that has some seriously killer potential.

Princess Mononoke
(1997)
|
Raffy Ermac
|
'Princess Mononoke' gives empowered voices to women (in a time where they didn't have any) & doesn't make them victims in need of a savior. It also forces audiences to look inward and question the way we consume things from the world around us.

Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker
(2019)
|
Raffy Ermac
|
'TROS' didn't do anything that other films and TV shows haven't, shoehorning a small but pleasant queer moment in wherever was convenient. Is too little, too late? Oh yeah. Is it something that LGBTQ+ pop culture fans are already used to? Unfortunately.

Love, Simon
(2018)
|
Raffy Ermac
|
While 'Love, Simon' is only one, small glimpse into a diverse and wide-ranging community filled with different stories to tell, it's a good start. And it's something that mainstream audiences need to see more of.

Crazy Rich Asians
(2018)
|
Raffy Ermac
|
Asian characters deserve a rom-com. Asian characters deserve to be in love! And with each other! If Asian viewers can see themselves portrayed in many different ways on screen, then they can believe that they can be many different things in real life.

Promare
(2019)
|
Raffy Ermac
|
The strongest theme 'Promare' explores is the discrimination of an entire group of people by the government-an extremely timely, familiar, and relevant story, especially for viewers who live in the States and are aware of the current political climate

Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn)
(2020)
|
Raffy Ermac
|
But the best thing about 'Birds of Prey' (and its biggest draw) really is getting to see Harley Quinn shine in the spotlight for once and reclaim her own identity outside of the Joker.

Weathering With You
(2019)
|
Raffy Ermac
|
...the need to belong and be loved are universal themes that Shinkai, an expert crafter of young, teenage love stories, explores very well in 'Weathering With You.'

Just Mercy
(2019)
|
Valerie Complex
|
Just Mercy is a no-frills film that's not meant to entertain, but act as a wake-up call, and a call to action.
