Never. Not even in the horror category – need I remind you of how good Talk To Me was? And as such, undertone (yes, all lowercase, because apparently we’re too cool for capital letters now) is not your typical horror movie. undertone isn’t a cheap jump-scare . It isn’t gore porn. undertone is something far more insidious and genuinely disturbing. This is a movie that deals in the weaponizing […]

Another Netflix thriller drops and you’re thinking “is this one actually worth the click, or is it going to be another forgettable scroll-past?” But hear me out on this one. Don’t Move is the kind of high-concept thriller that Sam Raimi (yes, THAT Sam Raimi – Evil Dead, Spider-Man) decided was worth producing, and there’s a reason it hit #1 on Netflix basically overnight. The premise is deceptively simple but wickedly effective: What if you encountered […]

If you haven’t seen it yet, stop reading immediately. I mean it. Come back after you’ve watched. Okay, here’s the thing about Yorgos Lanthimos—he’s not exactly known for making feel-good cinema. But Bugonia, his latest collaboration with Emma Stone and Jesse Plemons, might be the bleakest, most nihilistic film he’s ever made. And I’m including The Killing of a Sacred Deer […]

I also love a low budget film that isn’t afraid to swing big. 40 Acres, the feature debut from director R.T. Thorne, does exactly that – it points to the fence and then proceeds to knock one out of the park. On the surface, it’s a post-apocalyptic survival thriller. But underneath the tense standoffs and the silence of decimated farmland is a […]

Bring Them Down features Barry Keoghan (of the aforementioned Sacred Deer and Banshees films) and Christopher Abbott (Sanctuary, and Black Bear brilliance…), and Nora-Jane Noone (whom I particularly loved, but was completely unfamiliar with until this film). Before we go any further, if you avoid movies where animals […]

Yes, I’m aware I’ve slowed down on the movie review front here at THiNC. I’ve been spending the time I normally write and watch movies consulting. (Need an SEO expert? Hit me up! Hahaha.) But I am still watching movies, and Soderbergh’s The Presence got me off of my ass and got me writing again. So, there must be something worth watching here, no? Let’s dive in. I’m Recommending You Go In Blind First, a recommendation. […]
