Little Women (2019)



Jo March reflects back and forth on her life, telling the beloved story of the March sisters - four young women, each determined to live life on her own terms.

Lively, beautifully set and photographed, excellently cast adaptation of the classic and beloved novel; however, the non-linear telling of the tale diminishes the impact of the romances and tragedies and seems to assume the audience already has full knowledge of the story.

Creep (2014)


A young videographer answers an online ad for a one-day job in a remote town to record the last messages of a dying man. When he notices the man's odd behavior, he starts to question his intentions.

Effective, low-budget found footage horror drama makes the best from its premise and limited resources and achieves an atmosphere of unease and fear and a truly shocking ending.

Terrifier (2016)


On Halloween night, a young woman finds herself as the obsession of a sadistic murderer known as Art the Clown.

Full-throttle and unapologetic homage to the 80s slasher genre fully achieves what it wants to convey; quite entertaining for fans of the genre.

Da 5 Bloods (2020)



Four African-American vets battle the forces of man and nature when they return to Vietnam seeking the remains of their fallen Squad Leader and the gold fortune he helped them hide.

The full Spike Lee Joint experience: a wildly divergent (in quality and plot coherence) adventure tale with multi-faceted allusions, both cinematic and political, and with a distinct political message for our current time; a bumpy but utterly watchable odyssey.
