 One woman we soon discover is Sister Lynn (Helene Udy) crying in a Catholic confessional. She becomes increasingly upset as she cries and laments for herself because she always wanted to have a child of her own but she couldn't, and now she has one of her own, she was stolen from a woman she killed. Then we realize that she has blood on her hands. Moments later, the priest enters the room and there is Lynn, hanging from the end of a rope. It's 1955. Now we are in 1973. The church is no longer a church, it is a nightclub called Inferno. Mel (Bringas) and her boyfriend Brandon (Stephen Ruffin) rehearse for the club's opening dance contest. There's eyeshadow up here and lapels up there. They get along quite well together, although they are nursing some nerves. Mel suddenly runs to the bathroom to throw up, and you know what that means, because in movies, female characters don't throw up for any reason unless they're pregnant. She still isn't 100 percent sure,

 It's been a long time since I've reviewed a movie, but I was invited to preview Miracle in East Texas and was intrigued by the trailer. So while my daughter was in town visiting, we got ready for a girls' movie night. I can't say the movie blew us away, but it did make us laugh a little. According to the Miracle in East Texas movie website, the story is inspired by the unlikely but true story of two elderly con artists at the dawn of the Great Depression and the largest oil strike in world history. Being rigorous with history, we tried to investigate how much truth was intertwined. At first, all we could find was a large oil strike in East Texas in 1901. But, according to the Texas State Historical Association, there was, in fact, a 1930 Oil Strike led by two shady oilmen. Director: Kevin Sorbo Writer: Dan Gordon Stars: Tyler Mane, John Ratzenberger, Kevin Sorbo That said, the movie is much more story than truth, and that's okay. The film Miracle in East Texas begi

 In the vibrant days of his youth, Academy Award-winning filmmaker Bong Joon-Ho encountered a group of extraordinary souls, united by a single connection: a love of cinema. Before achieving global recognition, Bong Joon-Ho was an ordinary college student who dreamed of making films. With a group of graduate students and other film buffs, Bong created a film club, which he called 'Yellow Door'.  Lee Hyuk-Rae, who was also an alumnus of the club, produced a moving and inspiring documentary Yellow Door: 90s Lo-Fi Film Club on Netflix. Meeting with former club members, Lee and Bong reminisced about the good old days of the '90s, when college life was as pleasant as the color palette in a Wes Anderson movie.

 Sister Death is a visually stunning horror film with great set and costume design, an unsettling atmosphere, and a lack of music that heightens the suspense. The Verónica prequel explores the origins of Sister Narcisa's blindness and her battle against faith and religion, uncovering dark secrets and tortured souls. Director: Paco Plaza Writer: Jorge Guerricaechevarría Stars: Aria Bedmar, Almudena Amor, Maru Valdivielso  Although it has few scares, Paco Plaza creates a terrifying atmosphere for fans of religious horror, and Aria Bedmar gives a fantastic performance as the main character. Sister Death is a visually impressive horror film in the sense that it is well shot, has great set design, and wonderful costumes and makeup, all of which help create the ghostly atmosphere of a specific time and place. The old-school 4:3 aspect ratio continues a surprising new trend in smaller films in recent years (A Ghost Story, First Reformed, Son of Saul, American Honey), and allows the images

 It's hard to take your eyes off Emily Blunt in the true-life Netflix caper Pain Hustlers, the actress in her brightest movie star prime, a rare lead role in a movie where she's not being chased by aliens. or, even worse. , being forced to joke with Dwayne Johnson. As one of our best and most versatile celebrities working today, it's frustrating that Blunt is also one of the least used, until this summer's Oppenheimer (where she struggles to make the most of her "wifey").  Her only “one of hers for her” option in recent years was 2020's absolutely baffling Wild Mountain Thyme, a film that not even she could save. Her magnetism is both a blessing and a curse here for director David Yates, because she gives his film a boost it doesn't deserve or always know what to do with, her performance rising far above anything he surrounds her. Director: David Yates Writers: Wells Tower, Evan Hughes Stars: Emily Blunt, Chris Evans, Catherine O'Hara For a brief p

 The last time Sofia Coppola made a movie about a teenage royal living in a rococo palace that turned out to be a luxurious prison, it was in 2006, and the movie, “Marie Antoinette,” was a stylized dream of history: the story of the young queen as a naive and isolated rock star.  Coppola's new film dramatizes the relationship between Priscilla and Elvis Presley, and the parallels to the previous film are there if you want to see them. This time, however, Coppola goes in the opposite direction, working with a casually meticulous docudrama authenticity.  Director: Sofia Coppola Writers: Sofia Coppola, Sandra Harmon, Priscilla Presley Stars: Cailee Spaeny, Jacob Elordi, Ari Cohen In the 17 years since “Marie Antoinette,” he has grown as a filmmaker: His storytelling now has an organic detail and emotional precision that grips you. Last year's Elvis Presley biopic was called "Elvis." The book on which the new movie was based was “Elvis and I.” But Coppola's film is si

 Under The Christmas Sky may seem intense, but it's a heartfelt intensity that really resonates with us during the Countdown to Christmas season. We love movies that tug at our heartstrings and even make us shed a tear or two, and this one promises to do just that. Adding to our excitement is the all-star cast, which includes two beloved actors, Jessica Parker Kennedy and Ryan Paevey, whom we've loved since their days on “Secret Circle” and “General Hospital.” Director: Séan Geraughty Writer: Kristine Huntley Stars: Andrew Bushell, Cherrel Holder, Jessica Parker Kennedy So what is the story behind this movie? “Under The Christmas Sky” follows the journey of Kat (played by Kennedy), a once-promising astronaut whose career was derailed by a car accident, leaving her with a blind spot. Despite her family's best efforts to lift her spirits with holiday traditions like baking cookies, decorating trees, and Christmas shopping, Kat still longs for her lost passion. That's when

 A strong argument could be made that the year 1989, especially in the realm of pop music, was dominated by Milli Vanilli.. This German-French pop duo, formed just a year earlier by German producer Frank Farian, had already swept the European music charts with their debut single, "Girl You Know It's True." The track hit US airwaves in March, creating an astronomical impact.  Director: Luke Korem Stars: Sabrina Salerno, Diane Warren, Downtown Julie Brown Their first album sold over 8 million copies and spawned three number one singles, firmly securing their place in the top 10 for the entire year. The young fans, predominantly women, sang passionately to the synchronized choreography and undeniable charisma of Rob Pilatus and Fabrice Morvan. Their signature style included long braided hair extensions that swung as they danced, captivating looks, chiseled abs, shoulder pads, and spandex shorts, all against a backdrop of '80s dance moves. As the director of a new documen

 “The Enigmatic Enigma” represents an outstanding contribution to the realm of gripping crime dramas, offering an electrifying experience that keeps audiences on the edge of their seats. This captivating six-part Irish television series, crafted by the talented Ivan Kavanagh, transcends the boundaries of conventional crime dramas by masterfully dramatizing real-life events from the enigmatic landscapes of 1990s Ireland, often referred to as the " "Missing Triangle." A fundamental element that elevates “The Enigmatic Enigma” to greatness lies in its ensemble of finely etched characters, each of whom is brought to life by exceptional actors.

 “The Curse” lives up to the expectations of edginess and intelligence that come with its creators, Nathan Fielder, known for his experimental work on “The Rehearsal,” and actor and independent filmmaker Benny Safdie, who stars alongside Emma Stone.  Ostensibly a satire about a married couple producing a home improvement pilot in Española, New Mexico, this series takes a fascinating dive into the complexities of television, relationships, privilege, and trust. His wry humor punctuates the narrative, providing moments of levity in an intentionally off-kilter story. Creators: Jim Cooper, Jeff Dixon Stars: Rhys Darby, James Marsters, Gabrielle Nevaeh Fielder and Stone play Asher and Whitney Siegel, who aspire to become the next household names in home improvement, similar to Chip and Joanna Gaines. Their program, “Philanthropy,” is designed not only to bring them fame but also to create jobs and green housing solutions for a community struggling with unemployment and gentrification. The f

"After Death" by Stephen Gray and Chris Radtke, a faith-based documentary about near-death experiences that was produced by the same company behind "Sound of Freedom" (last summer's most popular film among people who They could accuse you of being a pedophile, I was reminded of something Lou Reed never said: “Only a select few people have been lucky enough to bask in the light of Jesus Christ during the kind of disembodied episode that might accompany a terrible car accident or a life. -salvage operation, but apparently each of them has turned it into a full-fledged race.” Which isn't to say that Dr. Mary Neal is lying about the heart-to-heart conversation she had with the son of God after drowning in a kayak, or that ordained minister and “90 Minutes in Heaven” author Don Piper isn't Do it.  Directors: Stephen Gray, Chris Radtke Writer: Stephen Gray Stars: Koko Marshall, Michael Jovanovski, Kate Duffy If we sincerely believe in the story that sold more

 The only confusing thing about Kandasamys: The Baby, Netflix's latest South African comedy-drama, is probably its abrupt changes in tone. One moment it's a cringe comedy backed by crude humor, and then suddenly it's a drama built on serious and relevant themes. Unfortunately, he fails at most things he tries. However, considering this is the fourth entry in the Kandasamys film series, I'm sure the franchise has an audience. If you have seen the last one randomly and are in a slightly perplexed state, then this article will clear all your doubts. However, I don't think the movie would have left you with too many. Jodi and Prishen are about to become first-time parents. The couple is about to receive a visit from their parents, who will travel from South Africa to Mauritius. The couple isn't too keen on their families meddling in the whole pregnancy thing, and considering how suffocated I started to feel fifteen minutes after being introduced to Jodie's mothe

Apple TV+ has created The Enfield Poltergeist, a four-part documentary that revisits the supposed real life of a family in 1970s London. The documentary draws on over 250 hours of archival audio to help recreate the infamous events in Enfield that inspired The Conjuring 2. It will be released on October 27, just in time for your Halloween party. Stars: Olivia Booth-Ford, Christos Lawton, Daniel Lee Over the course of four episodes, the events in Enfield are reconstructed using recordings captured by Maurice Grosse, a paranormal investigator who archived all of his interviews from that time. The doctor built a replica of the council house where the incidents occurred so that the artists could recreate what was heard on the tapes. The Enfield Poltergeist, an Apple TV+ documentary series, is based on a well-known case of alleged supernatural activity that occurred at 284 Green Street, a council house in Brimsdown, Enfield, London, back in August 1977. The streamer has just released traile

 Something you could never call Jesse Johnson is accommodating. Just a few months ago, his 21st century western, One Ranger, was released. Now, she presents Boudica: Queen of War, a film that swaps Johnson's typical pulpy crime narratives for a blood-soaked version of the story of Boudica, a legendary British queen who waged war against her Roman oppressors in the year 60. AD It's a far cry from the modern prisons and alleys that DTV action fans are more accustomed to seeing, but the transition makes sense if you've been following Johnson's recent filmography. After all, 2021's Hell Hath No Fury transposed its style of DTV action into a World War II nonsense about a woman fighting Nazis. Johnson seems committed to trying out as many subgenres as possible, and it's hard to deny that he's evolving as an artist. Director: Jesse V. Johnson Writer: Jesse V. Johnson Stars: Olga Kurylenko, Clive Standen, Peter Franzén Normally, I wouldn't be too excited about a
