Until Dawn (2025) 51% B-plus “Until Dawn is a gleeful reimagining of the classic slasher film, modifying the tropes enough to turn the familiar fresh. It's iTexas Chainsaw Massacre without the chainsaws, Friday the 13th on a different date, a wide awake Nightmare on Elm Street.” – Original Cin Apr 24, 2025 Full Review Sinners (2025) 98% A-plus “The movie will be compared to director Robert Rodriguez’s From Dusk Till Dawn, but the resemblance between the films is as valid as comparing limericks to poetry. Sinners is a ballad; a film that takes shape in beats and stanzas. It's all magic.” – Original Cin Apr 17, 2025 Full Review Psycho Therapy: The Shallow Tale of a Writer Who Decided to Write About a Serial Killer (2024) 81% A “A charming return to form for the adult comedy genre — dialogue-driven, character-first, and delightfully absurd. It's a smart and silly piece of narrative chaos that earns every word of its unwieldy title.” – Original Cin Apr 16, 2025 Full Review Skeet (2024) A “Skeet is a striking second feature for director Sexton. Thanks to his stellar cast, Skeet reclaims the term and reshapes it, giving it new meaning in a story about transformation, resilience, and the slow, stumbling path toward grace.” – Original Cin Apr 15, 2025 Full Review It Feeds (2025) 85% B+ “It Feeds is Archibald’s most refined work, a passport-holding horror film that crosses freely into mystery, thriller, and family drama. It’s a Lovecraftian nightmare threaded through the fabric of a Linwood Barclay thriller. ” – Original Cin Apr 14, 2025 Full Review Drop (2025) 84% B “Neither profound nor plausible, Drop is timely. As a cautionary tale told in an era where first dates can live or die on how often we glance at our phones, it’s a lot of outrageous fun. ” – Original Cin Apr 10, 2025 Full Review A Working Man (2025) 49% C+ “Director David Ayer likely believes he has stumbled upon the perfect formula while working with action-hero heavyweight Jason Statham following the success of their 2024 hit, The Beekeeper. But no. ” – Original Cin Mar 28, 2025 Full Review O'Dessa (2025) 38% C “O’dessa consistently edges towards but steps over (and occasionally stomps on) anything embracing the sultry, moody, or electrifying. It's a music film that never fully commits to the music. ” – Original Cin Mar 22, 2025 Full Review Novocaine (2025) 81% B-plus “It's hard to criticize a film that can both repulse and amuse, a film where you laugh while averting your eyes. Novocaine is that film—a raucous, non-stop, full-throttle slapstick comedy that makes The Three Stooges seem like a production of Swan Lake. ” – Original Cin Mar 11, 2025 Full Review The Rule of Jenny Pen (2024) 71% A- “The Rule of Jenny Pen is a dark and deeply unsettling film. Lithgow is unhinged and Rush is the perfect foil to attempt to bring him down. ” – Original Cin Mar 6, 2025 Full Review The Monkey (2025) 79% A “It’s only February, but the bar has been set for the most groundbreaking, original, and wild horror film of 2025. The Monkey is the one to beat.” – Original Cin Feb 19, 2025 Full Review Heart Eyes (2025) 81% A-minus “Despite some impressive kills and a respectable body count, Heart Eyes is more rom-com than slasher. However, it's a genre mishmash that creates a wholly unexpected delight. Imagine Jason Voorhees stumbling onto the set of Sleepless in Seattle.” – Original Cin Feb 6, 2025 Full Review Dark Match (2024) 68% B “Although Dark Match is an homage to grindhouse films and the horror styles of the ‘80s, it also transcends the veneer of its setting. You can ponder costumed violence turning real, or you can simply enjoy it as a dramatic, violent, satisfying thriller.” – Original Cin Feb 5, 2025 Full Review Flight Risk (2025) 30% B- “Mel Gibson directs a serviceable thriller with some stunning vistas and clever dialog but nothing that makes the film soar. ” – Original Cin Jan 24, 2025 Full Review Presence (2024) 88% B+ “As usual, director Steven Soderbergh brings a unique touch to this compelling story about a spectral presence observing a dysfunctional family that may be a watchful villain or a guiding light.” – Original Cin Jan 21, 2025 Full Review Wolf Man (2025) 50% C “Director Leigh Whannell's bloodless werewolf movie discards trenchant folklore for a plodding, uninspired tale. ” – Original Cin Jan 17, 2025 Full Review The Last Showgirl (2024) 83% B-minus “Anderson's character of a veteran Vegas dancer is, at least thematically, right on target. It casts her as a beautiful woman aging in a career that courts the young. And yes, Anderson is very good. It’s the film that ultimately lets her down.” – Original Cin Jan 16, 2025 Full Review The G (2023) 100% B-plus “A raw, gripping thriller that latches onto its most powerful asset: Dale Dickey’s extraordinary performance, every glance and pause loaded with meaning. There are echoes of Hal Hartley’s early work here, with its small-town textures and understated wit. ” – Original Cin Dec 5, 2024 Full Review Wicked (2024) 87% A-minus “Wicked can at times feel like a movie that’s one brick (and a second half) short of a road. But when all is said and sung, it’s still a road paved in gold. ” – Original Cin Nov 21, 2024 Full Review Hanky Panky (2023) 90% B- “With its quirky take on a doomsday scenario and a hero you could tuck into your pocket, Hanky Panky lives up to its title as a mischievous slice of offbeat nonsense. ” – Original Cin Oct 31, 2024 Full Review Smile 2 (2024) 86% C+ “It may have the makings of a cult film, but Smile 2 leaves one with the nagging sense that you need to rewatch the original just to confirm this is a sequel. ” – Original Cin Oct 17, 2024 Full Review Die Alone (2024) 80% A-minus “Dean crafts a haunting, romantic thriller. This isn’t just a zombie film; it’s a haunting exploration of love, loss, and what it means to hold on when everything else falls apart.” – Original Cin Sep 26, 2024 Full Review Will & Harper (2024) 99% A “Ferrell’s warmth and compassion reveal a side of him few have seen, and I doubt I'm the only one surprised by the depth of humanity woven into this story. Beyond the humor and pathos, Will & Harper is a touching and heartfelt exploration of friendship.” – Original Cin Sep 24, 2024 Full Review A Different Man (2024) 93% A-minus “Schimberg’s film is a blend of low-level sci-fi and mid-range body horror, though it’s body horror with a social conscience. It’s remarkable viewing, even as it distills its theme into a message of resilience that’s more idealized than realistic.” – Original Cin Sep 24, 2024 Full Review Speak No Evil (2024) 83% B-plus “After the traumatizing events in the original 2022 Dutch film of the same name, does the remake have any right to be so damned entertaining? I leave people to their memory of the fun version of Speak No Evil and keep the trauma of the original to myself. ” – Original Cin Sep 13, 2024 Full Review
