AULD LANG SYNE \u2013 Curious and willing to take a chance on a\nfilm that hasn\u2019t been seen by the press?

BEEZEL \u2013 A widower who lives in a house he believes is\ncursed invites a documentarian over to record him as he tries to learn about\nwhat happened to his late wife. They begin recording and the cameraman soon\nlearns that a dangerous force is present. Viewers then see horrific things that\nhave happened to other guests in the home over the past 60 years. So far, this\nindependent horror film has only received a handful of reviews, mostly from\ngenre film sites. They have been mixed overall. Some have stated that the film\nmakes good use of its concept and delivers plenty of jolts and atmosphere.\nClose to the same number suggested that while it starts off strong, the film\ngets weaker and weaker as it progresses and that the final chapter is both the\nlongest and least effective in the movie. Bob Gallagher, LeJon Woods, Nicolas\nRobin and Caroline Quigley headline the picture.    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

COMA \u2013 Set in France, this foreign-language feature deals\nwith a bored French teenager dissatisfied with her life. The youth resorts to\nvisiting the online world, becoming friends with a mysterious YouTuber who\nencourages her to share her inner thoughts and feelings. The story veers\nbetween dreams and reality, with the lead trying to determine whether this\nindividual is helping or hurting her. This drama was released in its homeland\nin 2022 and is now arriving on disc in North America. It received generally\ngood notices. A portion of them didn\u2019t care for the movie\u2019s shifts in tones and\nmix of live-action and various animation techniques, suggesting the final\nproduct was unfocused. But most thought it was a low-key but interesting\nexamination of the thoughts and struggles of a teen and had plenty of\nintriguing ideas in its narrative. It features Julia Faure, Louise Labeque and\nNinon Francois.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

THE CRITIC \u2013 After some particularly nasty reviews, the\nchief drama\/theater critic of a London newspaper is confronted by some of those\nwhose work he has panned. He laughs them off, only to have secrets about his\nsexuality revealed to police, resulting in his firing by the paper\u2019s owner. The\nlead decides to get revenge by doing research and ensnaring the man whom he\nbelieves ruined his livelihood. This period thriller split reviewers right down\nthe middle. Half commented that the story became more and more outlandish as it\nprogressed, eventually crumbling during the final act. The same number were\namused by the nasty characters, liked the work of the cast and called the\npicture enjoyably exaggerated and theatrical. For the time being, this is a\nDVD-only release. It stars Ian McKellen, Gemma Arterton, Mark Strong and Lesley\nManville.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

GIVE ME AN A \u2013 This anthology includes 16 shorts from 16\nfemale filmmakers dealing with the overturning of Roe V Wade and American\nwomen’s rights to privacy, bodily autonomy and healthcare. The tales jump\naround various genres, with some segments falling into dark comedy,\nscience-fiction, horror, and even straight drama. The movie was released last\nsummer and is now making its debut on Blu-ray. It was well-received by the\npress. A small number thought the feature had similar problems to other\nanalogies, in that the segments were too varied and uneven in quality. However,\nthe majority thought that most of the tales worked. They called the movie a\npassionate protest that showed a nightmarish vision of the future that appears\nto be coming true. The cast includes Virginia Madsen, Alyssa Milano, Gina\nTorres, Molly C. Quinn and Sean Gunn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

NIGHT OF THE MISSING \u2013 If you\u2019re looking for more\nanthologies, you can also try this independent horror feature. During the\nChristmas holidays, a woman appears at a small town police station. The gruff\nSheriff arrives to take her statement down. The lady talks about many of the\nstrange disappearances that have occurred in the area over the past few years.\nAfter seeing segments detailing some of the stories being told, we learn who is\ncausing the crimes and why. This feature received a streaming release late last\nyear and is now appearing on disc. So far, only a handful of genre film critics\nhave seen it and reactions have been mixed. They all seem to suggest that some\nsegments are decent, while others don\u2019t work at all, resulting in an odd\npatchwork that is only marginally effective. It features Meredith Thomas, Jill\nAwbrey, Philip Estrin and Bill Moseley<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

PORTRAITS \u2013 In this indie chiller, a down-on-her-luck artist\ngets some unexpected news when she learns that she has inherited a building in\nLos Angeles. The lead decides to make it her new home and studio, but then\nlearns about the strange history of the relative who left the site to her. She\nalso finds herself falling for an aspiring photographer living nearby. When a\nseries of brutal murders begin occurring, the protagonist must find out if they\nhave any connection to those she knows. The film has been described as a\nmodern-day adaptation of the vampire story Carmilla<\/em>, which should give\nyou some idea of where the plot will venture. No critics have seen the picture\nyet, and it is arriving as a DVD-only release. Olivia Bellafontaine, Jack\nBennett, Camille Calvin, Paola Carleo and Elissa Dowling headline the film.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They are asked by an acquaintance to help with a drug run in order to\nearn extra money and the pair accept. They are asked to swallow condoms\ncontaining drugs and do so. But after an altercation, one of them begins\nfeeling stomach pains and wonders what they consumed. This picture played at\nvarious festival and was released on video-on-demand last year. Now, it\u2019s\ngetting a release on disc. Critics were more positive than negative about the\npicture. A small contingent complained that all the movie really wanted to do\nwas shock viewers instead of focusing on character. However, the majority\ncalled the film a unique and unsettling body horror odyssey that successfully\nmanaged to make them feel icky. The film stars Cooper Koch, Jose Colon, Jenna\nMalone and Mark Patton.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
