King Car, 2021 – ★

This film suffers from a lack of coherent direction, making it a chore to follow and ultimately, a tedious experience. The scattered narrative prevents any meaningful engagement, leading to a disappointing viewing.

Hunt Her, Kill Her, 2022 – ★★

This decent single-location film builds steady tension, though its final act ventures into almost excessively vicious territory, testing the boundaries of its confined setting.

Fake Blood, 2017 – ★★★

While at times it leans too forcefully into its themes, the film manages to deliver a compelling, if somewhat contrived, mockumentary experience.

Sunshine, 2007 – ★★★

This film shines with its gripping exploration of human resilience and cosmic wonder, but it unexpectedly veers into a less satisfying slasher finale that detracts from its thoughtful buildup. Its profound themes and stunning visuals almost manage to outshine the jarring genre shift that concludes the journey.

Inseminoid, 1981 – ★★

The film largely consists of repetitive sequences with characters sprinting through identical hallways, which grows tiresome quickly. However, the arrival of the creatures injects some much-needed excitement into the otherwise monotonous action.

Spaghetti, 2023 – ★★★★

The film is a fun watch, though it occasionally stumbles in execution. The highlight is an undeniably bizarre scene that must be seen to be believed.

The Theatre Bizarre, 2011 – ★

An anthology film that fails to deliver any compelling stories, making it difficult to stay engaged. Each segment lacks the creativity and intrigue needed to captivate the audience.

Good Boy, 2022 – ★★★★

This exhilarating film keeps audiences on their toes with a barrage of unpredictable, bonkers twists that defy conventional storytelling. It’s a thrilling ride from start to finish, where expectations are not just met, but wildly surpassed.

Death Spa, 1988 – ★★★

This film offers a playful yet unoriginal take on the slasher genre, missing the peak of its popularity with a belated release that fails to bring fresh terror to the table.

Civil War, 2024 – ★★★★

Alex Garland’s latest film showcases his ability to craft a deeply moving narrative while staying largely apolitical. The emotional depth and nuanced storytelling stand out, making it a compelling watch.

Starship Troopers: Terran Command (2022) – ★★★

Impresses with its stunning graphics and meticulous attention to detail, faithfully capturing the essence of the established universe. However, the game could benefit from more variety in gameplay, as the repetitive missions can make it feel monotonous over time.

The Coffee Table, 2022 – ★★★★

This film plunges deep into an almost unbearable level of bleakness. If you appreciate such intensity, make sure to avoid all spoilers before watching to fully experience its impact. You have been warned.

H4Z4RD, 2022 – ★★

A straightforward crime film that delivers on the basics but falls short of adding depth to its storyline. The plot could have benefited from a few more twists to keep it engaging.
