Sun Scarred

Sun Scarred review

"Part drama, part subdued revenge, which a big finger pointing at the passive attitude of many instances and people in this film, the film impresses until the very end."

Afro Samurai: Resurrection

0979
Afro Samurai: Resurrection review

"If you're up for some good solid fun and don't have too much trouble neglecting the grating dub and soundtrack, there is plenty of amusement to be had from this film."

Ip Man 3

0980
Ip Man 3 review

"Wilson Yip did well to wait a couple of years before making this third instalment. Yip Man 3 is a worthy successor, in every way possible."

Hole in the Sky

0981
Hole in the Sky review

"Hole In The Sky is slow-paced cinema. There isn't much happening in terms of dramatic events, the characters are rigid and introvert and odd behavior is often taken for granted."

St. John's Wort

0982
St. John's Wort review

"It is far from a perfect film, maybe not a film that will stay with you for a very long time, but it sure sticks out from the rest."

The Unforgiving

0983
The Unforgiving review

"If you're up for a no-bullshit horror/thriller, you can't really go wrong with The Unforgiving."

Gratitude

0984
Gratitude review

"The soundtrack and visuals wrap themselves around the audience like a warm blanket while the drama slowly unfolds and runs its course. Fans of the genre will feel right at home"

Seventh Moon

0985
Seventh Moon review

"It's a shame that Sanchez couldn't get the camera work right, otherwise Seventh Moon could've been a contender of films like [Rec] and Blair Witch."

Tamami: The Baby's Curse

0986

"It sports a cool main character, some nice camera work and very atmospheric and detailed styling."

Ghost in the Shell 2.0

0987

"It was a while since I last watched Ghost in the Shell, but the film still feels like a dream."

This Must Be the Place

"The pacing is fast, the tension strong and the concept fun enough to make it a lovely little genre film."

Women Play Twice

0990
Women Play Twice review

"Considering the film as a whole it's not that much different from a normal feature-length Japanese drama, though the change in characters and perspectives do add some welcome variation."

Batman: Gotham Knight

0991
Batman: Gotham Knight review

"The animation is top-notch, the art styles are bold and out there, and with six separate stories to tell there's plenty of variation. Batman fares well in anime land."

Butterfly

0992
Butterfly review

"The stylish cinematography, the beautiful soundtrack, and two amazing central performances make this a lively and empathic LGBTQ+ romance."

In Love with the Dead

0993
In Love with the Dead review

"In Love With The Dead is a neat little genre film that thrives on atmosphere, providing a solid dramatic base overlaid with dark and brooding sentiments."

Harry Brown

0994
Harry Brown review

"Harry Brown has quite a lot to offer. Visually strong, aided by a great soundtrack and a more than solid cast, it's a grim film that presents itself way better than most of the competition."

Snow White: The Sequel

0995
Snow White: The Sequel review

"The film is pretty short and rightfully so. A joke can only be stretched that far, and when you start getting used to the tone of the film the fun slowly fades."

Hold Up Down

0996
Hold Up Down review

"The comedy is spot on, the cinematography is solid, the film works up to a strong crescendo and there are some very memorable scenes scattered throughout."

The Seaside Motel

0997
The Seaside Motel review

"It's definitely not the best entry in the genre, but it's a very welcome addition for those craving fresh meat."

CJ7

0998
CJ7 review

"A film that could charm you as easily as it could disappoint you. Chow is enough of a director to pull it off, but those wanting another typical Chow comedy will be left with empty hands."

White Panic

0999
White Panic review

"All in all White Panic is a great calling card for director Shugo Fujii (who you might already know from Living Hell)."

7 Days

"Les 7 Jour du Talion is another great entry in the Francophone wave of modern horror films."
