‘The Feast’ Serves Up Beauty and Grand Guignol Carnage [SXSW Review]

March 17, 2021 by Joe Lipsett

Welsh film The Feast opens with an employee manning an oil drill stumbling away from a dig site, blood covering their face.

It’s visually disconnected from the cold, sterile environment where the rest of the film takes place, but this seemingly incongruous opening hangs heavy over a dinner party from hell.  [Read more…]

‘Dreamcatcher’ Is A Messy Attempt To Fuse Disparate Subgenres Together [Review]

March 1, 2021 by Joe Lipsett

Dreamcatcher opens with a fairly conventional kill. A POC character, Kya (Nazanin Mandi), walks down a series of hallways before she is attacked and killed by a man wearing a mask. It’s familiar, but well executed and positions the film as a fun slasher film.

Alas Dreamcatcher has far greater ambitions, but lacks the ability to execute them. [Read more…]
