Maggie Gyllenhaal’s The Bride positions Mary Shelley as author-narrator, finally telling the story Hollywood wrote without her. Jessie Buckley and Christian Bale don’t play monsters. They play two beings finding total freedom in each other. Devastating, divisive, and utterly audacious.
F (The Expelled, 2010) follows a broken teacher into a nightmare of violence and institutional collapse. Director Johannes Roberts’ ambiguous ending reframes the entire film as a study in psychological manifestation. A rewatch reveals far more than the first viewing suggests.
Parasomnia is a horror film from debut director James Ross II, following a young woman whose lifelong night terrors take a deadly turn when the demon haunting her dreams begins crossing into the waking world. Starring Jasmine Mathews.
Exit 8 (2025) is a Japanese horror-thriller where a Tokyo subway becomes a recursive trap. Director Genki Kawamura (Your Name, Suzume) fractures perspective between three trapped souls. Anomalies multiply. Exits loop. The boy sees what others cannot. Overlook Film Festival Review
New Group (2026) follows Ai as her high school descends into cult-like madness. Director Yūta Shimotsu transforms simple gymnastics into horror. A sharp critique of conformity disguised as body horror. Premieres June 12, 2026.
Apex (2026) stars Charlize Theron as a grieving climber in remote wilderness. Baltasar Kormákur’s survival thriller is stunning, tense, and occasionally far-fetched, but Theron’s physicality makes it compulsively watchable.
