Film-Forward

Thriller

Coup!

Caddyshack by way of the Coen brothers.

War Game

A documentary that takes as its premise that more insurrections are inevitable, and therefore must be anticipated.

Birder

An erotic, queer serial killer movie in the tradition Alain Guiraudie’s Stranger by the Lake and William Friedkin’s Cruising.

Concrete Utopia

A massive earthquake tears through Seoul, yet somehow, one apartment complex manages to survive intact.

La Syndicaliste

An efficient but otherwise less than compelling addition to the whistleblower canon, starring Isabelle Huppert.

The Strangler

An intriguing, elegantly-crafted psychological portrait that is a hidden gem in the horror genre.

Saltburn

Writer/director Emerald Fennell dares you not to clutch your pearls.

Aberrance

A solid, psychological horror film from Mongolia.

Our Father, the Devil

A visually striking film that explores trauma, revenge, guilt, and, ultimately, forgiveness.
