Willow Creek (2013)

Willow Creek (2013)

[5] Bobcat Goldthwait takes us to Bigfoot country in this found-footage film about a Sasquatch enthusiast who drags his girlfriend into the woods to help him shoot a documentary at the site where the famed Roger Patterson footage of the creature was…
The Final Destination (2009)

The Final Destination (2009)

[5] If you saw the three that came before it, you know exactly what to expect from The Final Destination, and you'll get nothing more -- perhaps a bit less. It follows the same plot as the other movies -- a kid…
Green Lantern (2011)

Green Lantern (2011)

[4] Green Lantern is probably the single-most generic superhero movie I've ever seen. It's not terrible so much as it is wholly unremarkable. It's mired in a scatter-shot script that dwells on plot points and secondary characters I couldn't give two craps…
Enemy (2013)

Enemy (2013)

[6] Jake Gyllenhaal stars in this ambiguous mystery about a man who becomes obsessed with tracking down his perfect doppelganger. Upon meeting, the two men (both played by Gyllenhaal) are confused, jealous, and fearful of each other. Things come to a head…
Ghostbusters II (1989)

Ghostbusters II (1989)

[5] The gang is back for another outing, five years after the enormous success of the first Ghostbusters. But its a mediocre follow-up at best. Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis, Ernie Hudson, Sigourney Weaver, Rick Moranis, Annie Potts, and director Ivan…
Spring Breakers (2012)

Spring Breakers (2012)

[7] At first, Spring Breakers seems like a beautiful excuse for gratuitous boobage, but as it unfolds, I found myself more and more engaged with Harmony Korine's (Gummo, Trash Humpers) story of four restless college girls who flirt with darkness and wrestle…
Rumble Fish (1983)

Rumble Fish (1983)

[6] Matt Dillon stars in this Francis Ford Coppola film about a high school hooligan who's infamous older brother (Mickey Rourke) comes back to town to try and change his bleak outlook on life. Rumble Fish is based on a novel by…
The Star (1952)

The Star (1952)

[6] Bette Davis stars as a washed-up Hollywood actress desperate to revive her career. You might think the film would be a bit autobiographical, but the screenwriters actually patterned it after Joan Crawford. (And Davis no doubt found some amount of joy…
Cold in July (2014)

Cold in July (2014)

[7] Cold in July is hard to summarize, and that's a big part of why it's interesting. It starts off with a bang, as Michael C. Hall (TV's Dexter) is forced to protect his home from an intruder. No sooner than the…
The Witch (2015)

The Witch (2015)

[10] I'll come right out with it: The Witch is my favorite horror film of the last ten years. Newcomer writer/director Robert Eggers serves up a masterfully creepy tale that's equal parts psychological and atmospheric, elegant and restrained, but not without some…
