Film and Television Reviews

Direct from SXSW 2021, here are our capsule reviews of Here Before, Our Father, I'm Fine (Thanks for Asking)

Let’s take a look first at the opening day documentaries we indulged at SXSW 2021: Confronting a Serial Killer, Kid Candidate, and Sasquatch.

Director Keith Thomas delivers a modern, innovative spin on classic demonic storytelling, with a deep respect for Jewish culture. The Vigil is this year's first must-see horror film.

Silk Road is not the immersive detail on everything that spawned from the actions of Ross Ulbricht’s fascinating endeavor, but it remains a fairly riveting account on one of the greatest crimes of this century nonetheless.

Gerard Butler and Morena Baccarin star in Greenland, about an estranged couple attempting to reach safety before a comet destroys Earth.
