My review of Sew Torn (2024), the SXSW hit from Freddie and Fred McDonald. Starring a phenomenal Eva Connolly, this film presents a triptych of terror as a seamstress at a crossroads must choose her fate. A darkly funny, fantastically creative thriller that re-threads the needle on choice and consequence.
Don’t Trip follows a desperate filmmaker who befriends an unhinged producer’s son in this Tubi horror-comedy that critiques industry power structures with mixed results.
Jackpot review: Paul Feig’s dystopian action-comedy starring John Cena and Awkwafina turns a government murder lottery into absurdist entertainment. Amazon Prime’s delivers social satire with spectacular violence and laughs.
