Closed box violence? What’s not to love here? “Set over twenty-four hours, writer-director Charles Dorfman’s Barbarians sees a dinner party take a nightmarish turn when the doorbell rings. As manners give way to madness, an evening of celebration descends into a dark night of terror; and a civilized dinner party turns out to be anything but. The thriller stars Iwan Rheon, Catalina Sandino Moreno, Tom Cullen, and Inès Spiridonov. Barbarians opens in theaters and On Demand on April 1, 2022.”

Eraser: Reborn – March 31st – Germany?
Meh? Loved the original Eraser movie… but this one? Dunno. “U.S. Marshal Mason Pollard specializes in “erasing” people – faking the deaths of high-risk witnesses. With the technological advances of the last 25 years, the game has upgraded, and it’s just another day at the office when he’s assigned to Rina Kimura, a crime boss’ wife, who’s decided to turn state’s evidence. As the two flee to Cape Town, South Africa, with a team of merciless assassins on their trail, Pollard discovers he’s been set up. Double-crossed and fueled by adrenaline, he needs to be at the top of his game, or he’ll be the one who’s erased. Permanently.”
