'EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert' is a Bold Cinematic Experience Worthy of The King

This isn’t just a greatest-hits victory lap or a museum-piece curio; it’s a thunderous, sweat-soaked immersion into what made Elvis one of the most electrifying performers to ever step on a stage.

'Send Help' is a Disgustingly Great Time

One particular sequence had my entire theater audibly gagging, groaning, and laughing in unison. It was a beautiful reminder that communal revulsion is one of cinema’s great unifiers.

'Whistle' is a Visually Strong but Narratively Limp High School Horror→

February 06, 2026/ Nicolas Delgadillo
'Whistle' is a Visually Strong but Narratively Limp High School Horror

A few solid ideas, some decent scares, and an aesthetic worth admiring - all hampered by a script that never quite pulls its demons together.

'Twisted' is a Nasty Indie Horror That Lives Up to Its Name

While it doesn’t always hit peak greatness, it is consistently stylish and distinct in a genre that so often defaults to familiarity.

'The Only Living Pickpocket in New York' - A Quiet Requiem for an Aging City

The Only Living Pickpocket in New York exudes a lived-in quality from the very first frame to the last. It’s a movie grounded in brilliant texture and acutely tuned to the emotional spaces between the dialogue.

'Mother of Flies' is Grotesquely Beautiful

It’s pretty fucked up, all things considered, and I do mean that in the most complimentary sense possible.

'Josephine' - A Devastating Tale About the Loss of Innocence

A masterclass about the cost of growing up, the terror of parenting, and the impossible, yet endearingly hopeful task of teaching a child how to survive a world that has already failed them.

'Night Patrol' Turns Police Brutality Into Bloodsucking Horror

Its flaws are loud, but so is its voice. And sometimes, that’s enough to make the mess worth wading through.

'28 Years Later: The Bone Temple' Goes Even Weirder and Darker Than Before

It may not match the sheer aesthetic audacity of last year’s reinvention, but it compensates by giving its performers space to drive the story and by pushing the franchise’s philosophical ambitions even further.

Creature Feature Showdown: 'Primate' vs 'Killer Whale'

Neither film is exactly a classic, but taken together, they make for a fascinating snapshot of where modern creature features are at, or perhaps where they’re just forever destined to be.

'How to Save a Milestone' Chronicles the Survival of an Iconic American Venue

This isn’t just a documentary about saving a building. It’s about saving spaces where art is allowed to be messy, confrontational, inclusive, and alive. A very hopeful way to start 2026.

'Marty Supreme' is a Cinematic Sprint for Glory

Like Marty himself, the film is impressive, exhausting, and impossible to fully shake once it’s over. A prime example of a project firing on all cylinders.

'No Other Choice' is a Chilling, Unpredictable, and Hilarious Masterpiece

This is Park operating at the height of his powers, delivering a thriller that’s as unpredictable as it is darkly funny, as emotionally bruising as it is formally immaculate.
