Review: ‘Silent Night, Deadly Night’ Finds New Life
In an era dominated by remakes and requels, Silent Night, Deadly Night returns not as a hollow exercise in nostalgia, but as a slasher that understands both its legacy and its controversy. Originally released in 1984 to intense backlash, the film has long occupied a strange place in horror history—reviled by some, embraced by genre fans. This new iteration doesn’t shy away from that baggage; instead, it reworks the story with intention, justifying its existence through bold narrative choices and a clear affection for the slasher tradition.

Review: Del Toro’s ‘Frankenstein’ Is a Gothic Masterwork
Read our review of Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein, exploring its gothic beauty, Oscar-worthy performances from Oscar Isaac and Jacob Elordi, and its haunting meditation on creation, abandonment, and the soul. A spoiler-safe, passionate analysis of one of the year’s most visually stunning and emotionally devastating films.
Sentimental Value is a quietly devastating exploration of what happens when art, memory, and regret collide. Joachim Trier crafts one of his most intimate films yet, following a once-famous father trying to reconnect with the daughters he left behind in pursuit of his craft. The performances—from Stellan Skarsgård to Renate Reinsve—are layered with quiet emotion, while the film’s delicate cinematography mirrors the fragility of its characters. Trier refuses easy answers; instead, he offers a tender, deeply human portrait of how families fracture, heal, and ultimately rediscover one another. It’s a masterpiece that lingers long after the credits roll.
