Posted on Wednesday, January 6th, 2021 by Hoai-Tran Bui There’s the temptation every year to say, “This was a bad year for movies,” which is rarely ever the case. But 2020 certainly flirted with that idea, with the pandemic pushing many studio films to next year and making all other films nearly impossible to watch without a press badge at a film festival. More than anything, it was a weird year for movies, a year where entertainment became a safe haven from the horrors of reality and whe...

We Summon the Darkness, Hunter Hunter features a seemingly simple premise gone straight to Hell. And it’s a slow and painful journey. Devon Sawa ( Idle Hands) stars as a husband and father hunting a wolf in the woods. Simple, right? And, man, I thought I had this movie pegged from the get-go. But boy, was I wrong. I think what makes the movie so effective is we keep waiting for a major twist ending. And it never comes. Only the final realization this wasn’t a magic trick. Just a good old f...

Sound of Metal, Im Thinking of Ending Things, Swallow, Ema, La Llorona — If one of your New Years resolutions is to watch all the great movies you missed in 2020, you have come to the right place.

Twenty-twenty has been a year of disappointment for all of us — except for Jeff Bezos, who gets to make money during a pandemic by exploiting his workers and avoiding taxes. Much has been said about the state of cinema this year and just how much of a disaster releases have been, what with arthouses and multiplexes alike having to close down for the safety of their workers and audiences alike. But this isn’t to say that there hasn’t been a lot of beauty in the world of film amid all the g...
