Bloody and vicious with a lot of broken bones and brutal executions, Extraction unashamedly revels in violence.Just like the testosterone-filled bullet-fests of the eighties and nineties, this movie has one objective: to keep your eyes peeled to the screen
Sometimes mainstream comedies actually turn out pretty good and Palm Springs is one of them. It features familiar concepts and characters but still manages to stay entertaining and refreshing.
Based on a true story, this is one of those dramas with a really good and engaging atmosphere. The story unfolds matter-of-factly, without melodramatic moments or forced scenes. And it is a crazy story, a story that might seem stranger than fiction, but it is nevertheless true.
To complete the list of animals that can attack and kill you in Australia, The Pack adds vicious and bloodthirsty wild dogs. This is an effective little horror movie featuring a family trapped on their farm by, you guessed it, a pack of wild dogs.
Moody and atmospheric, The House of the Devil is a slow-burning horror with extremely strong eighties vibes. Written and directed by very talented Ti West, The House of the Devil is not a horror movie for everybody.

One of the principal themes of Teleios or Beyond the Trek revolves around the definition of what it means to be human. The story seems familiar and yet intriguing, reminiscent of Star Trek. This is not a space opera with huge battleships or aliens but more of a philosophical slow-burner working within the limits of the low budget.
I, for one, welcome our new alien overlords, especially since there's a good vibe about the whole thing. Alien television show creator is producer/writer Noah Hawley who previously worked on Fargo and Legion. So far, so good. I liked Fargo, at least the first season and Legion seems like an okay show.
Tired of movies that all look and feel the same? You want to try something new and different? Check out Reality, a French/Belgian slow-burning comedy that will break your mind. This is a perfect movie if you're having people over and want to blow their minds or engage them in conversation.
The best thing about Donkey Punch is that it's just so damn entertaining. This is a is a thriller with an interesting story, realistic atmosphere and good acting
