Peter Five Eight: You, reader — let me be clear, the real you, not the generic one who has always been referred to as the “reader” — how do you find the performance of Kevin Spacey in Michael Zaiko Hall’s Peter Five Eight, an indie crime film released recently? Zaiko Hall recounted to The Independent, […]
Not gonna lie, this had me in the first half. The new film “The Supremes at Earl’s All-You-Can-Eat,” directed by Tina Mabry, in the first hour, is a charming and overdramatic story of three black women’s friendship which has survived over a number of decades.

We Are Wolves: Let’s be honest, it’s not made for art house audiences and that makes it better. Every top and bottom out there knows how hard it can be to find a good B movie. This is a good B film and quite different than those dull VHS erotic thrillers a lot of viewers

My Dead Friend Zoe: “I’ve lost more peacemakers here than I’ve lost in Iraq,” carefully words a particular American veteran during any of the group therapy sessions in the movie, ‘My Dead Friend Zoe,’ which Kyle Hausmann-Stokes examines in his documentary that touches on ex-servicepeople’s mental health. The filmmaker and the protagonist lost many of
Depending on perspective, ‘Ponyboi’ can be viewed as a Trojan’s horse for reaching nonbinary gender identity or as an overly formulaic crime film, albeit one which possesses a strikingly original queer protagonist. In any case, it is a rough but fashionable focus of attention toward intersex actor (and activist) River Gallo, who prefers to go
‘Something In The Water’ – the name is an instant nostalgia trigger for anyone who would spend hours looking at boxes of unknown horror VHS tapes in their local video store.
