Badland Hunters (2024) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): A post-apocalyptic flick starring Ma Dong-seok
Netflix film “Badland Hunters”, which was released in last week, is a redundant sequel to acclaimed South Korean film “Concrete Utopia” (2023), which was incidentally one of my best South Korean films of last year. While “Concrete Utopia” is a … Continue reading

No One Will Save You (2023) ☆☆☆(3/4): Katilyn Dever carries the whole show

Hatching (2022) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): Her issues get hatched…
It is difficult not to be impressed by the offbeat qualities of Finnish horror film “Hatching”. Besides several memorably gruesome moments of body horror to be admired for the considerable skills and efforts behind them, the movie mostly works mainly … Continue reading
El Conde (2023) ☆☆☆1/2(3.5/4): Pinochet the Vampire

The Innocents (2021) ☆☆☆(3/4): A little terror among kids
