Review in Brief: Butt Boy (2019/20)

Posted on May 26, 2020 by

Indie horror-mystery BUTT BOY has the schlockiest of schlocky conceits, but approaches it completely straight. Amazingly, it works. It’s a classic tale of a deadbeat alcoholic cop on the hunt for a serial killer, only this serial killer seems to … Continue reading →

Review in Brief: The Platform (2019)

Posted on May 26, 2020 by

THE PLATFORM may feel relevant but it’s extremely obvious in its use of metaphor. One character (Zorion Eguileor) has a catchphrase, responding to every passing comment of his cell mate (Iván Massagué) with a derisive “Obviously”. “Obviously” could be this … Continue reading →

Review in Brief: Emma. (2020)

Posted on May 7, 2020 by

Review in Brief: The Jesus Rolls (2019)

Posted on April 25, 2020 by

I’m not sure who was asking for a spin-off movie for everyone’s favourite sex offender from THE BIG LEBOWSKI, but we’ve got one. John Turturro clearly saw enough in this to write, direct and star, but aside from a certain … Continue reading →
