The Shrouds, 2024 – ★★★
Intriguing ideas and eerie style, but it meanders without ever hitting a satisfying stride. Feels like it’s missing a final act.
Intriguing ideas and eerie style, but it meanders without ever hitting a satisfying stride. Feels like it’s missing a final act.
A bloody welcome back that shakes off the dust with new tricks and gruesome flair—fans should be pleased with the carnage.
Snaps back with inventive kills and a clever final twist—proof there’s still life in the formula when done right.
Lacks the creativity and suspense of the earlier films—feels more like a placeholder than a proper sequel.
Stylish, savage, and packed with that early 2000s charm—it’s the most fun and rewatchable entry in the series.
Sets the bar with a jaw-dropping opener and keeps the tension high throughout—a near-perfect sequel that ups the ante in all the right ways.
Inventive, tense, and a lot of fun—still delivers the thrills even if the Y2K fashion doesn’t.
Thorough and informative. A must for fans, but casual viewers might find it a bit much.
Feels more manufactured than thrilling, straining to build a franchise that just doesn’t have the weight to carry it.
Dark, gripping, and anchored by a killer performance—every bit as sharp as its reputation suggests.
Knows exactly what it is and leans all the way in. Loud, messy, and ridiculous—in the most entertaining way.
A fresh backdrop and solid characters make this a worthwhile ride. There’s enough tension and style to keep things afloat.
Twisted in all the right ways and surprisingly sharp, it delivers on the promise of its premise with style, wit, and just the right amount of bite.
Leans into the slasher fun with just enough flair to rise above the pack. Not a genre game-changer, but a bloody good time compared to weaker peers like Founder’s Day.
Too stretched for its own good, with long spells of nothing that sap the tension. Any sparks of intrigue get lost in the slow drag toward a payoff that hardly feels earned.
