Another Look: Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein (****) saves Universal
Lucky viewers will get to see the film as a kid and enjoy it once more when they’re older.
-
Smile (****) wears its trauma bravely
It’s quite remarkable to think that this is the first full length feature of the writer/director. It’s even harder to believe I have never seen or heard of Sosie Bacon until today.

Terrified (****1/2) is an effective scare
We are not outside of the danger. It’s there waiting for us.
-
Pearl (***1/2) – No way out
It’s hard to enjoy a truly disturbing film like this so much as one can just appreciate the effort.
-
Elvis (***1/2) Flashes of history
Outside of Hanks, Elvis is a nice montage of history. Just like his life. Blink and you’ll miss it.
-
Barbarian (****) Keeps its story down deep
Cregger handles some very common story elements in a completely original way.
-
Lamb (***1/2) – It’s not a child…
This could be one of the strangest films one sees this decade. Or just a movie about revenge.
