He gets a call from his cousin, Ko Sung-ki (Zo In-sung), about a dead cow in the road with unnatural wounds. Rumors begin circulating that a tiger is the culprit, but a trip back into town reveals more unnatural carnage among the cows—and even a farmer. When Bum-seok returns to town, he finds a massacre: buildings torn apart, bodies strewn across the streets, and

During the Sengoku period of Japan, Lord Murashige (Masahiro Motoki) finds himself trapped inside his own castle as his enemies close in around him. With his forces surrounded and his chances of survival becoming increasingly slim, Murashige turns to an unlikely source for help: a prisoner named Kanbei Kuroda (Masaki Suda), a brilliant strategist who has been captured and imprisoned within the castle. Despite being his captive, Kanbei possesses an understanding of war that co

"I think that our neighborhood...our house...our whole street has moved." It's been a while since we got a movie from David Robert Mitchell, director of It Follows. The last time he had a movie in theaters was back in 2019 when Under the Silver Lake graced our silver screens. The film garnered mixed responses and was a box-office flop but has since gained a cult following. I, myself, recalled it was a bit too long but found the journey to be an interesting experience to say t

A small fishing village is in quite a slump. Thirty years ago, their livelihood depended on a fishing vessel called Rose of Nevada, and a storm took out the ship and its crew. One morning, the ship mysteriously returns into the harbor. Local businessman and owner of the boat Mike (Edward Rowe) is stunned, but sees this as an opportunity.

Clark (Chiwetel Ejiofor) is a down on his luck furniture salesman in the Bay Area. His wife kicked him out and he currently lives inside of the furniture store. After a series of mysterious events, he stumbles upon the titular Backrooms, an unexplainable series of yellow rooms that appear to go on forever. He details this with his therapist, Mary (Renate Reinsve), who meets him with some skepticism, but eventually decides to explore herself. What they find, to quote the film,

I am going to tell you something and I need you to stay with me. There is a film on Netflix right now in which a CGI octopus named Marcellus narrates the emotional healing journey of a grieving widow and I watched every single minute of it with my whole chest open like an idiot. Alfred Molina voices the octopus. He is wry. He is world weary. He has opinions. I respected him enormously. The crying is entirely Sally Field's fault. She plays Tova, a woman who has lost her husban

Talking sheep investigating the murder of a human character is certainly an interesting concept for a movie. One that many people, including myself, heard the concept of, or even saw the overly cheesy trailer and thought was going to be a downright silly if not flat out bad movie. So when the movie debuted in the 90s on Rotten Tomatoes, intrigue went up, and rightfully so. George Hardy (Hugh Jackman) is a shepherd who reads mystery novels to his sheep every night, not knowing

The Wrestler-To-Actor pipeline sure is full of twists and turns and loop-de-loops. You would think that being real time performers for whom speaking is a large part of the job, they would be able to create a screen presence and recite lines pretty easily when allowed multiple takes. And yet, as history has shown, it's anything besides a sure thing. One of the greatest and most charismatic professional wrestlers of all time, the Immortal Hulk Hogan, was notoriously bad at the

Exit 8 is a Japanese movie adaption of the video game The Exit 8 . A man, played by Kazunari Ninomiya and credited as The Lost Man, finds himself trapped in an endlessly looping subway tunnel, trying to find exit 8. He soon learns the rules: if there is an anomaly in the current loop, he must turn back and go the other way. If there isn't an anomaly, he must keep going the way he is going. If he goes the correct way, the next exit goes up in number one by one until he reache
