Guillermo del Toro has yet to find any boundaries when it comes to intimacy within a story or the scope of its telling. He uses genre like a stained palette, leaving residue of fusions and clear-cut influences. So it makes sense that his debut, CRONOS, is no different. Del Toro reinvents the vampire using alchemy, entomology, Gothic principles, the…

The best way to start a new year is by celebrating the old! 2025 saw me watch less new films than usual but as per usual, I stuck up for the weirdos. In alphabetical order, these are the movies that stuck with me, kept me thinking and guessing and analyzing for months: BIRDEATER dir. Jack Clark & Jim Weir BUGONIA dir. Yorgos Lanthimos THE LUCKIEST …

Today marks the last episode of Year 4 of The Movies. As such and as part of a yearly tradition, I take the last episode of each year to reflect on the good, bad and generally insane aspects of the show. I thank everybody who came on the show and anyone who helped me keep this thing rolling. Finally, I lay out some goals for 2026 to help grow and s…

ONIBABA is one of Willem Dafoe's favorite movies, as his visit to the Criterion Closet confirms. In finally watching Kaneto Shindo's moody 1964 drama, I found it to have a spiritual cousin in one of Dafoe's films, THE LIGHTHOUSE. Both movies center on a couple isolated from most of the world, whose work provides the sole respite for their otherwise…

It's time to talk about the black sheep of the HALLOWEEN franchise: SEASON OF THE WITCH. This 1982 paranoid sci-fi thriller infamously did not center around Michael Myers but instead on Silver Shamrock, a company whose trendy Halloween masks become the subject of scrutiny after an elderly shop owner is murdered by a mysterious assailant in the hosp…

When writing the watchlist for this year's 31 Days of Halloween, I put on Coralie Fargeat's REVENGE because I adore THE SUBSTANCE and wanted to see more of her work. I listed BYSTANDERS because I'd been following director Mary Beth McAndrews, then editor of Dread Central, for years and wanted to see what her debut would have to offer. But it wasn't…

REVENGE is the feature directorial debut of Coralie Fargeat, Oscar-nominated for directing last year's total fucking banger THE SUBSTANCE. THE SUBSTANCE had a budget of $17 million. REVENGE had $3 million. And in comparing both movies, it gives me great joy to see that Fargeat's penchant for the surreal and gnarly diminishes not with a lowered budg…

THE MONSTER SQUAD brings the Universal Monsters of yore into the '80s with a healthy dose of sugar-blasted cereal and unmedicated ADHD. Directed by Fred Dekker (NIGHT OF THE CREEPS) & written by both Dekker and Shane Black (THE NICE GUYS, LETHAL WEAPON, KISS KISS BANG BANG, most of your favorite movies ever), this combined family drama, top-notch m…

SCARY MOVIE is a staple of my childhood, an entryway into horror movies during a time where I wasn't allowed to watch most of them. It's a time capsule, for better and worse, of the late '90s/early '00s sense of humor & general fatigue regarding the slew of teen slashers riding SCREAM's coattails. This was my intro to the Wayans Bros, Regina Hall, …

WE ARE STILL HERE occupies a crossroads in the horror genre: that of the '70s & '80s-inspired supernatural chillers, the gorefests from guys like Lucio Fulci and the patient character studies of grief popularized in the '10s (anything A24 would touch). These elements shouldn't work so well together but I guess when you got a horror nerd like Ted Ge…

We're 10 days into the 31 Days of Halloween and I feel like we need a palate cleanser. Recently, we've been talking about reanimating dead bodies, torturous twins, eating warm pizza off of cold corpses. I think it's time we take the holiday back to a more innocent, nostalgic time, where we only concern ourselves with what costume we're gonna wear a…

GOODNIGHT MOMMY is the feature debut of aunt-nephew duo Veronika Franz & Severin Fiala (THE LODGE, THE DEVIL'S BATH). Patient, tense and psychologically disturbed, this movie drew me in and kept me guessing all the way to the end. Twin brothers Lukas and Elias (Lukas & Elias Schwarz) live in pastoral Germany, spending their summer days exploring pi…

In Karyn Kusama's THE INVITATION, Will (Logan Marshall-Green) is invited to his ex-wife Eden's (Tammy Blanchard) dinner party in the Hollywood Hills after two years of radio silence following the accidental death of their 5-year-old son. Returning to his old home and stepping back into his son's room conjures the guilt and pain Will's tried to bury…

After a long week of watching Halloween movies, it's good to grab some friends, get cozy in your pajamas, munch on a pizza, sip some beer, smoke some weed and settle into a slumber party. If you're lucky, it might even be a slumber party MASSACRE! 1982's THE SLUMBER PARTY MASSACRE, directed by Amy Holden Jones, is one of my all-time favorites: a cl…

Donate to the Go-Fund-Me for Gabe Bartalos here. --- Just cause I've wrapped up the Universal Monsters series doesn't mean I'm quite yet done with the classics! Frank Henenlotter takes his goofy and gaudy turn with the FRANKENSTEIN story in his 1990 opus FRANKENHOOKER. This movie sees Jeffrey Franken (James Lorinz) as certifiably cuckoo-for-Cocoa-P…

Today, we're wrapping up the Universal Monsters with CREATURE OF THE BLACK LAGOON! The Monsterverse jumps into the Atomic Age of the '50s as a group of scientists/archeologists venture on a fossil-finding expedition in the Amazon. What are they looking for? An evolutionary missing link between animals of the sea and land, teased by a webbed long-fi…

My favorite Universal Monster movie is 1941's THE WOLF MAN, starring Lon Chaney Jr. as Larry Talbot. Larry returns home after 18 years to bury his brother and reconnect with his father, Sir John Talbot (Claude Rains, who also played the Invisible Man). He hits on the - engaged - neighbor (Evelyn Ankers), goes out with her and her chapero-I mean, fr…

I interviewed John Maclean, the director of the coming-of-age samurai revenge movie TORNADO. The titular character is a teenage girl (Koki) avenging her father's murder at the hands of a band of thieves led by Sugarman (Tim Roth) and his son Little Sugar (Jack Lowden). I swear I didn't mean for this episode to drop on Father's Day but it feels appr…

When Tornado swipes a bag of stolen gold from a gang led by the villainous Sugar (Tim Roth), the gang murders her father and thus begins the revenge of this tale.MacLean borrows from …

First things first: Thank you for 200 episodes! It's been continuously joyful to keep showing up for y'all, to chat about the art form that fuels my love and obsession.

THE KISS is based on Stefan Zweig's novel BEWARE OF PITY. Pity is the word. It's the emotion that keeps Anton (Esben Smed) at an arm's length from Edith (Clara Rosager). Anton is a poor kid trying to raise his social status by rising through military ranks. Edith is the wheelchair-bound daughter of the wealthy Baron Løvenskjold (Lars Mikkelsen). He…

Thanks once again to Universal Pictures Home Entertainment for shipping me a review Blu-ray copy of THE WOMAN IN THE YARD! This has been a good way to catch up on movies I missed in the theaters. The teaser for this movie sucked me in right away because it's simple: a family living at a farm house, with no neighbors as far as the eye can see and al…

ADA: MY MOTHER THE ARCHITECT is a documentary directed by Yael Melamede, the daughter of the titular mother, Ada Karim-Melamede.

This week, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced some new rule changes regarding eligibility and voting for the Oscars. The main change? Oscar voters are, as of this season, REQUIRED to watch all nominees in each category they vote in. Why this wasn't a rule beforehand is beyond me, but y'know, if the best time to throw water at…

This week, the Cannes Film Festival announced its lineup for their 78th edition.

This episode sees me fum…

Just because ANORA wears the Oscars' Best Picture crown doesn't mean the movies nominated turn to dust. In fact, as the Best Picture nominees slowly trickle out to home video, discussing them feels more pertinent. A movie's lifespan isn't limited to the awards calendar, especially when it comes to WICKED. Jon M. Chu's fantasy musical, based on the …

THE LUCKIEST MAN IN AMERICA stars Paul Walter Hauser as Michael Larson, an ice cream truck driver who travels from Ohio to California with hopes of contesting for the Big Bucks on PRESS YOUR LUCK. What follows is a lucky streak that'll put Larson in the history books...that is, if the game show execs don't discover his secret and pull the plug. Dir…

Samir Oliveros directs THE LUCKIEST MAN IN AMERICA, a comedy starring Paul Walter Hauser as a man who, in 1984, takes game show execs and a studio audience for the thrill of a lifetime as he aims to pocket the most money ever won on PRESS YOUR LUCK. The execs say he must be cheating. The audience cheers him on, a bumbling working-class zero given t…

I missed Leigh Whannell's newest film, WOLF MAN, in theaters. Bit of a bummer since he's a director who's earned my highest personal honor of earning my view purely off of goodwill - no trailer, no social media post needed. So what was I to do? Nothing, but that's where Universal Pictures stepped in and (thankfully) sent me a review copy of the WOL…

Today on IN FOUR FILMS, we ask Tara Giancaspro: "Using only four films, who ARE you?" She's a New Jersey-based writer, poet, songsmith, pop culture muser, frequent podcaster, actress, production assistant, music video extra and doting mother to two cats, Simone & Lugosi. To call her a multi-hyphenate just feels like I'm underselling it. Tara's four…
