You Won't be Alone
In the nineteeth century, a young girl is turning into a witch, inhabiting different bodies as she goes

A poetic, beautiful and unique witch movie
With numerous voice-overs pondering her faith, the dreamy cinematography and absence of viewer pampering, this felt more than a poetic essay, depicting witches more as misunderstood outcasts than malicious beings. I found it beautiful and a highly refreshing.Offering (aka Abyzou), The
Man secretely wanting to sell his fathers funeral home, has to deal with cleansing it from evil first

Waisted
Despite one of the scariest locations I know (morgues), tastefully lit scenery and a promise of creepy Orthodox Jewish reli-horror, this movie was unable to craft it into something scary or interesting. Instead, it has only really, really tiresome loud-noise jumpscares to offer.My Heart Can't Beat Unless You Tell it to
Brother and sister need blood for their brother who has a very special condition

Different and unpleasant, and definitely worthwhile.
There's something quite unsettling about seeing normal people processing heavy dead bodies, especially when the atmosphere and acting is natural and plain. The special 'patient' even manages to evoke feelings of sympathy.Pope's Excorcist, The

By the book
It may try to add some extra's to the genre with the dungeon and what not, but mostly it feels like a textbook exorcism that is so by the book that you wonder why they bothered. Not scary, overacted, not interesting, I almost reached for my phone.Pet Semetary (2019)
A family man discovers a semetary that brings back dead pets. What else could it work on?
Wittenberg

not scary enough, too little to standout
While it has some good moments, like the backstory of his wife that is actually more scary than the main plot, overall I found it a bit plain and predictable. The scares don't go deep.Vortex
Through a rift in time, a detective can meet his murdered wife in the past, and try to catch the killer before it's too late.

Simple but sweet time travel conundrums
It's perhaps a bit tame, and guilty of picking and choosing only the time travels paradoxes it wants, but all in all we enjoyed this puzzler that mixes crime, time travel and a love-story into a sympathetic series.House of Wax
Group of friends winds up in a desolate town where the wax museum holds a horrible secret
Wittenberg

original subject can't generic horror formula
The wax subject is quite original and caters for some reasonable horror moments. The subject feels slightly underused though, but that's not the main problem. That would be the same old cast of pretty young adults behaving generically, unrealistically and rather tiresomely.Suicide Club
Detectives try to figure out a pandamic of mass suicides

Good until the actual club shows up
The first half is quite shocking and uneasy, as we're all left in the dark as to what is causing these tragedies. Then the real 'club' shows up, which are terribly annoying characters who do annoying things and form a dissonant wedge from which the film does not recover.Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV
Superwarriors defend the good people from the bad people who are after the crystal that empowers the good people

A strange but not necessarily tasty mix
Unfamiliar with the Final Fantasy lore, I needed some time to digest the mix of knights driving Audi's in a futuristic world. I liked some of the designs though, and halfway through the story got pretty exciting. But ultimately, the confusing action scenes and hollow characters didn't do it for me.Evil Dead Rise
The book of the dead finds it way to a family living in an appartment
Wittenberg

Uninspired and not scary enough
While it tried to be open minded about it, I did find a hard to have a true Evil Dead vibe without a cabin in the woods. More importantly though, this thing just wouldn't get scary for me, and even bored me at times. It's all a bit uninspired, and most of the characters I didn't care for much.Movies found: 1037 | max movies per page: 10 | Showing: 111 - 120
