This week we watch the latest horror film from the Austrialian brothers Danny and Michael Philippou. While its not turning out to be the sensation that their previous film, Talk to Me was, the film is stil very well made, well acted, and very dark. Bring Her Back (2025).
This week, we start a new segment where we go back through the IMDB top 250 list since we froze it in 2016 and see what has been added. This film is currently sitting at number 40 on the IMDB list, and also is rated the #1 best movie of all time currently on Letterboxd. Harakiri (1962), directed by Masaki Kobayashi.
This week, we watch the classic bottle movie where 12 humans with bias come to realize the baggage they bring to their view of the world. This film is understandably so high up on the list because of its message of understanding, as well as its entertaining thriller vibe. 12 Angry Men (1957), directed by Sidney Lumet.
week, we watch the sixth film (first in over a decade) in the Final Destination franchise. In these films, death chases those who escape it, and can only kill people in a series of more elaborate ways. This film leans heavily into the camp while keeping the over the top gore in potentially the strongest entry in the series. Final Destination: Bloodlines (2025), directed by Zach Lipovsky and Adam Stein.
This week, we watch the classic that changed the film industry forever. Indie attempts to copy the formula defined most of the rest of the 90s, but nothing came close to what this film achieves. This films iconic status has not diminished over the years, and it remains one of the funniest films of all time. Pulp Fiction (1994), directed by Quentin Tarantino.
This week, we follow up with last weeks episode with another Salles film. Releasing nearly three decades earlier, this film’s documentary feel shows promise from the director. It is also the first Brazilian film to receive a best actor/actress Oscar nomination. Central Station (1998), directed by Walter Salles.
This week, we watch last years winner of the Best International Film academy award. This film is a passion project from renowned Brazilian director, who spent 7 years making this film, which is a true story about a family he knew when he was a child, and the events that unfolded to that family during the military occupation of Rio De Janeiro in the 70’s. I’m Still Here (2024), directed by Walter Salles.
This week, we watch the first original screenplay from writer/director Ryan Coogler in over a decade. After solidifying his reputation with big budget series films (Creed, Black Panther), Coogler returns to original screenplays, and returns to film (IMAX). What results is one of the most wildly entertaining theater going experiences in years. Even if the horror genre generally turns you away, give this one a shot. Sinners (2025), directed by Ryan Coogler.

This week, we watch the Academy Award nominated official submission from Germany, that is actually an Iranian made film that was filmed entirely in secret and made it necessary for the director and many of the people who worked on the film to flee Iran. It is a very unique film in the way it was made, it shows some shocking real footage of the 2022 protests in Iran, and is worth a watch for the subject matter alone. The Seed of the Sacred Fig (2024), directed by Mohammad Rasoulof.
