The Amityville Horror theatrical films reviewed
Is this series worthwhile or is it just one big Golden Sombrero?
Shudder’s The Room (***1/2) is better than it should be
This is not necessarily something that would succeed on the big screen. It is definitely something worth watching after dark on a weekend.
Netflix’ The Adam Project (***1/2) Superhero Landing
The Adam Project is a good diversion if you are home looking for something to explode on screen just a little and warm your heart a little more.
Hulu’s No Exit (**) shows its cards too early
Hard to believe the film will be remembered for anything more than Liu’s obvious talent.
In Between (*1/2) is not far enough
They have a debate on the authenticity of Titanic, because of course they would.
Netflix Texas Chainsaw Massacre (**) – Once more into the ditch
Oh well. It is what it is: a slaughterfest with barely sketched out characters.
Encounter (***1/2) family past the breaking point
If you’re a fan of Ahmed, give this a spin. It’s not unusual to see him play a significantly challenged individual. We’ve never seen him play a father. He does both well until the story runs out of steam and decides it’s going to go the route of Smokey and the Bandit II.
Color Out of Space (****) They’re not my family
If you ever wanted to see what Stanley has in his mind in any given moment, give this a try.
Shudder’s Host (****) possession for the Zoom generation
This is the perfect film for teenagers who see the world through a Tik Tok lens.
