Antiviral
In the future, loyal fans want the diseases of their idols. A broker in such sicknesses gets a bit too involved.

Sickening - in a good way
A nasty and slightly disturbing premise that is cleverly neutralised in a clean, bright white scenery. An intriguing watch.Animalia

A beautiful mystery
The things are in fact quite vague, and I am not even sure I understand what was happening. But somehow is doesn't really matter. It is a journey of believable, interesting people that grabs and enchants you, without knowing where it is going.Free Guy

Not for everyone, but definitely for some
You'll need some knowledge of contemporary gaming, the Youtube subculture, and mental preparation for a barrage of restless imagery and hysteric jokes. But if you manage all that, you'll find that it has it's heart at the right place, is enjoyable and sometimes a good laugh indeed.Dark and the Wicked, The
Brother and sister visit their parents as the father is on his deadbed, and their mother is overcome by a dark presence in the house

Refinened horror that mixes several discomforts but remains subtle
A refined, slow and uncomfortable movie that blends the horror with the dread of disease, the feeling of being unable to leave and helplessness. I thought it was really good watching it, but did notice it fading from my memory pretty fast afterwards - usually caused by a lack of standout moments.Blodtur a.k.a. Bloodride

Quite unique and fun, not really scary though
While I would have liked these to be more gory and/or scary, I found the first 4 very amusing and fresh spooky tales, with some clever and inspired stories. The final two a bit less so.Midnight Sky, The
Amidst a worldwide cataclysm, a man at a northpole research station attempts to warn a spaceship not to come back to earth

Nicely done, but minimal
It's lovingly made and compelling throughout, but it is suffering somewhat form the minimal story. Sometimes this leads to a pleasant slowburn pace, but at other times it is struggling to fill up time, with events that seems irrelevant for the overall story.Girl Next Door, The
The (sadly true) story of a girl under custody of an evil aunt, who tortures her to death in a basement, with many of the local kids joining in

A painful story that needs to be told
This harrowing story is hard to watch, is made well and made me read into the backstory for sure. It feels inappropriate to even criticize it, but somehow it looses a few points because it really felt and experienced like a movie adaptation, creating some distance/shielding from the true horror.13 Hours

Chest pounding action with suprisingly restrained Bayism
The beginning was restless for the wrong reasons, everyone was chatting and doing stuff I could not follow. There's also a fair dose of Bay kitsch en patriotism, albeit less than I expected. But it's still an intense adrenaline rush - so much so that I had trouble falling asleep afterwards.Naked Lunch
Cockroach exterminator gets intoxicated by the poisonous gas and a surreal, bizarre story starts. Like typewriters that are mucus producing alien heads.

Bizarre, they way some like it
A little slowish perhaps, but pleasantly bizarre, strange and filthy in true Cronenberg style.Katla
In a small Icelandic town situated next to an active volcano, people that already exist or existed rise from the ashes

Moody en interesting mystery
It can be a tad sluggish, and I sometimes became frustrated with the incomplete and vague way people talked. Mostly though, the story is intriguing, and the easy going pace combined the Icelandic setting created a lovely, mysterious glow.Movies found: 1043 | max movies per page: 10 | Showing: 161 - 170
