Spanish director Fernando Truaba is one of those [...]

The First Omen (2024)
Let me start by saying that I did NOT see Michael Mohan’s IMMACULATE, which came out a few weeks ago and to which my fellow critics have labeled this Omen prequel a less-than stellar carbon copy. Having not seen that film I feel that I can safely judge this movie on its own. So, with […]
Roadhouse (2024)
Not that anyone cares, but there is a remake of Roadhouse that Amazon Prime has allowed to skip theaters I might presume because the studio was smart enough to know that this pointless 80s nostalgia retread is a difficult sell over the sequel powerhouses of GHOSTBUSTERS or DUNE PART TWO or KUNG FU PANDA 4.

Framed as […]

Vishniac (2024)
It is a little hard to walk into a documentary about The Holocaust anymore and not wonder what the latest entry is bringing to the conversation. Holocaust documentaries are a crowded field; essential but crowded. For me, the most successful are those that don’t cover the same ground. The focus on the individual is not […]
