Worldbreaker

With little in the way of depth, thrills, or scares, it’s not worth the time for even the most starved of sci-fi action fans.

Sam Raimi drives the survival thriller genre to some amazing and sadistically giddy ends, with Rachel McAdams and Dylan O’Brien along for the ride in the back seat cackling and stabbing each other the whole way through.

Return to Silent Hill
(2026)
|
Jesse Schedeen
|
It’s ultimately an adaptation that fails to improve upon the source material or do anything particularly new and interesting. Those craving a truly great psychological horror experience are better off booting up a version of Silent Hill 2.

Misery might have been just a simple pot-boiler had it not been for the masterful layering of character applied to Annie Wilkes, courtesy of King, Bates and screenwriter William Goldman.

The Rip may stumble at times due to an uneven script and forgettable action scenes, but its interesting premise, talented cast – lead by Matt Damon and Ben Affleck – and twist ending make for a mostly enjoyable experience.

28 Years Later: The Bone Temple
(2026)
|
Clint Cage

Director Nia DaCosta crafts a great follow-up to last year’s 28 Years Later that’s gory and thoughtful in equal measure. There’s a wit and humor at play in The Bone Temple that elevates, in all the right ways, the dramatic stakes of a zombie apocalypse.

From the direction to the acting to the excellent story, everything hits the mark dead-on. Where you'd expect weak acting, you've got strength. Where you'd anticipate cheesy moments, you've got truth. This is a fantastic film all around.
