Synopsis In post revolutionary Iran in the 80’s during the Iran-Iraq war, Shideh is no longer able to study to be a doctor because of her political beliefs. Meanwhile, her husband is conscripted to the war and she is left alone with her daughter. While bombs threaten to topple their apartment building a malevolent entity starts to haunt them. Review of Under the Shadow This is the tried and true family haunting formula used in a novel setting of a repressive and war torn nation. It creates a unique conflation of traumatic stressors. A evil Djinn, is often the least of the protagonists worries compared to the imminent threat of death from an unseen foreign entity as well as the horror of losing your autonomy from a regressive dominant culture and government. This is listed as Rotten Tomatoes #2 on the 200 best horror movies of all time. I wouldn’t agree with the placement, but I do think this is a fantastic and interesting iteration of some familiar horror tropes.  I can’t find anything to complain about, but I wasn’t necessarily blown away by it. I was also sick while watching it, so that probably brought down the overall enjoyment.  Score 8/10
Synopsis After giving birth to an unnatural vampire-human hybrid, Bella herself becomes a newborn as she has finally transitions into a vampire. Bella is stronger and faster than expected and with the support of her chosen family she learns the ins and outs of vampirism and motherhood. But her bliss only lasts so long when the Voltori finds out about the child and her potential threat to vampire and human kind alike. In lue of this threat the Cullens must search for allies in the vampire community to plead their case or conversely fight alongside them to protect the child. Review of Breaking Dawn Part 2 This is clearly the best one Weird child, fun vampires, battle scene See more into the vampire community as a whole So little going on but so much at the same time. Score 4/10
Synopsis Matt Hagen, played by Tom Harries, is a wildly successful actor who has just been nominated for an Academy Award. Riding the high of his nomination, he attends a club where he meets a woman and ends up spending the night with her. This woman turned out to be the girlfriend of an extremely notorious crime boss in Gotham, but that did not dissuade Matt. She was just too hot! But this catches up with him as he wakes up to find a group of thugs surrounding his bed who cut up his pretty face until it is unrecognizable. With his moneymaker destroyed, he loses his fame as well as all his…well… money. In an attempt to regain his career, he meets with a scientist named Caitlyn to undergo an experimental procedure on his face. After injecting AI-trained nanobots into his skin, he starts to gain new powers as a side effect of their healing capabilities. Now Matt must fight not only for his beauty, but for the soul of Gotham itself. Review of Clayface Clayface is the third movie installment in the new DC universe following Superman and Supergirl. With the screenplay written by Mike Flanagan, the movie has a much different flavor than other comic book adaptations. I found the story to be pretty predictable and cookie-cutter for the most part. It isn’t breaking barriers with the plot. But I still really enjoyed the ride nonetheless. It is really fun to see Matt use his new abilities to enact revenge on those who did him wrong, all while spiraling into madness as Caitlyn does her best to keep him on the rails. The movie has a pacing problem, especially in the beginning. This had me worried that the entire movie was going to be too rushed to have any hope of being enjoyable, but I was wrong. The second and third acts are strong, and I had a lot of fun with the body horror and monster aspects of the film. Score: 8/10

Over their honeymoon Bella becomes pregnant with an immortal vampire child (and possibly the antichrist? Its unclear). With the mortal Bella wasting away as the child feeds on her from within, Edward must find a way to save his new bride. Review of Breaking Dawn Part One This movie is legitimately one of the weirdest films I’ve ever seen. My jaw was on the floor the entire time and I could not believe my eyes in every scene. It is so strange, and there are moments where it is difficult to believe this was ever made in to an actual movie. Its terrible. Score: 10/10
Synopsis A shark obsessed serial killer is on the loose and young American surfer Zephyr is his latest target. After being kidnapped and held captive with little hope of rescue, Zephyr uses every ounce of her resolve as she fights for survival in an attempt to allude not only her captor but also the hungry sharks lurking in the waters surrounding her.  Review of Dangerous Animals This film takes the sharksploitation subgenre in an unexpected direction, revealing that the sharks aren’t really the villains, instead you are faced with a deranged serial killer on the hunt for his next victim Released in 2025 directed by Sean Byrne the film explores themes of human versus animal predation, facing your demons, and even humans eternal search for connection  Subverting expectations you are taken on a ride filled with action and suspense as well as a stand out performance from Jai Courtney who plays tucker our villain Dangerous Animals succeeds in making a solid connection to the characters with interesting plot devices driving the story forward. The pacing is great and keeps you engaged  although, the suspension of disbelief gets harder to get behind into the third act.  Overall the movie is fun and brings a new premise to a genre that is well overdue for a revamp.   Score 7/10 
Synopsis In a world where being a hot, sexy vampire is more important than being a good person, Bella is still dating Edward even though he is objectively abusive and controlling. When times get tough, Edward must do the hardest thing he has ever done in his undead life: Trust his girlfriend around the presence of another male. No, but seriously. That’s the main conflict of the movie. But also, there are some evil vampires kind of just causing mayhem. If any of that is interesting to you, tune in to the spoilers section of this episode. Review of Eclipse In the third installment of the Twilight series, we are greeted by a lot more of the same stuff we got from the previous 2 movies. Bella likes Edward, but Jacobs six pack is slightly tempting. But not enough to cause any real problem in the relationship. The problems almost exclusively stem from how possessive Edward Cullins is. I get that the movies are doing what they can to attract viewership from teenage girls and stick to the source material. I cant fault them for doing exactly what they are attempting to do. But I can say without a hesitation that this series is boring me to tears. My eyes have disconnected from the optical nerves from rolling so hard at every line of dialogue. It really feels like the story wanted more edward and jacob drama and squeezed a story about rogue vampires in to make it more interesting. They failed in that regard. Score 2/10
Synopsis 8 year old Bella loves her parents and in her spare time does what every little girl loves to do. Commune with a shape shifting trickster demon. Her playmate takes the form of her mother and Bella calls her, you guessed it, Other Mommy. The trickster demon does what every little girl loves to do. try to enter a victims heart and tear their life to pieces. Review of Other Mommy I wasn’t expecting much from watching the trailer and getting exposed to the intense marketing campaign for this movie. I expected another low effort Blumhouse one trick pony jump scare vehicle. Instead of conforming to the cookie cutter Conjurjng template, this movie borrows more from the pacing and meanness of the Evil Dead franchise. From the start it hits the gas, and never lets off. Director Rob Savage previously directed the excellent low budget found footage movies Host and Dashcam, but also recently directed the family based supernatural film The Boogeyman. He creates something unique here, and is contamtly putting the audience off balance. One could say this movie is predictable, but almost every cliche from the family-based supernatural horror subgenre that is included in this film is subverted eventually. Regardless of the tropines, They stuffed a ton creativity in the form of interesting set pieces and visual effects that spanned the uneasy and uncanny, to the explosive and gorey. The script is very thin, preferring action over words, but the acting is high quality regardless. Jessica Chastain sells Other Mommy very well, and Annabella Olivia Clark as Bella is an impressive talent as well. Overall, I had a real good time and was pleasantly surprised at how much I liked it. Score 8/10

He roams with a pack of outcasts and seems to be keeping dark secrets. Its not long before the truth comes out, her new friend and potential love interest is a monster. Again. Bella will need to decide if her love for Edward can survive his absence, or if the alpha will take his place. Score: 4/10
