Warning: Do Not Play (2019) ☆☆☆(3/4): Searching for one cursed horror flick
South Korean film “Warning: Do Not Play” is a little mystery horror flick alternatively creepy and amusing for its main target audiences. While being as sinister and ominous as required, the movie often throws some wryly amusing moments to be … Continue reading
The Dead Don’t Die (2019) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): A slow, languid zombie flick by Jim Jarmusch
Jim Jarmusch’s latest film “The Dead Don’t Die” is as slow and languid as many of his previous works. Although I have no problem with that at all, the movie feels like a one-joke movie stretched a bit too long, … Continue reading
