Shiva Baby (2020)
At a Jewish funeral service with her parents, a college student runs into her sugar daddy.
Brilliantly fresh, funny and modern coming-of-age comedy convinces due to a intelligent and imaginative script and a great ensemble, led by perfectly cast Rachel Sennott.

Infinite (2021)
A man discovers that his hallucinations are actually visions from past lives.
Highly derivative and uninspired hodgepodge of much better sci-fi and spy movies offers a lot of action and CGI, but never really thrills.

Die Nackte und der Satan (1959)
A scientist invents a serum that keeps a dog's head alive after its body dies. When the scientist dies of a heart attack, his crazed assistant cuts off his head and, using the serum, keeps the doctor's head alive and forces it to help him on an experiment to give his hunchbacked nurse assistant a new body.
Cheaply made and weird horror drama delivers the goods for this brand of the genre, quite entertainingly so.
Maltin**: "Old-fashioned chiller involving head-transplants, with obligatory murders and blood-drenched revenge; extremely eerie, but not very convincing."
