RESIDENT EVIL – Review by Nadine Whitney

September 18, 2026 Nadine Whitney Andrea Miltnerová, Austin Abrams, Dariusz Wolski, game franchise, Kali Reis, Paul Walter Hauser, Resident Evil, Shay Hatten, Zach Cregger

I’ve never played ‘Resident Evil’ and I have vague memories of seeing the film series starring Milla Jovovich. To state that ‘Resident Evil’ as a game, comic, animation, film franchise hasn’t really penetrated my consciousness would be accurate. However, Zach Cregger’s skilfully lean and mean Resident Evil has definitely given me something tasty to chew on. Cregger’s ability to mix abjectly gross imagery with genuinely funny moments is a testament to how he’s a master of tone. And, despite my lack of video game play knowledge, I could see precisely how he worked the film as a tribute to the series, and also to the many fans and players of the franchise. Resident Evil is a bloody good time.

WEAPONS – Review by T.J. Callahan

August 5, 2025August 7, 2025 T. J. Callahan alden ehrenreich, Amy Madigan, Cary Christopher, horror, Josh Brolin, julia garner, Weapons, Zach Cregger

Following the success of Barbarian, Zach Cregger brings us the most highly anticipated horror film of the summer, Weapons…and you won’t be disappointed. You may not be totally satisfied or even understand what you just watched, but you won’t be let down. Even though the narrative Cregger wrote is fictional, the emotional center is rooted in reality, inspired by social issues, real life events and Cregger’s personal experiences.

BARBARIAN – Review by Susan Granger

September 12, 2022September 13, 2022 Susan Granger Barbarian, georgina campbell, Justin Long, Skarsgard, Zach Cregger

This year’s spooky season starts with Barbarian. It’s a dark and stormy night when documentary researcher Tess Marshall (Georgina Campbell) arrives in Detroit for an important job interview. Finding the Airbnb accommodation she’s rented, she realizes it’s ominously situated in a rundown neighborhood that’s filled with abandoned houses. When the key is missing from the lockbox, Tess discovers that that the dingy, dimly lit place is already occupied. Not to reveal too much, let’s just say there are malevolent twists and turns.

BARBARIAN – Review by T. J. Callahan

September 8, 2022 T. J. Callahan Barbarian, georgina campbell, Justin Long, Skarsgard, Zach Cregger

In Detroit for a job interview, a young woman books a rental home in a sketchy neighborhood. Arriving at night and during a rainstorm, she frantically tries to get inside and soon realizes she’s not the only tenant. The lodging is double booked, but the male in the main bedroom isn’t her biggest problem. Barbarian is AirBnBoo. AirBnBadTiming. AirBnBungling. AirBnBloody. AirBnBeastly. AirBnBrave. AirBnBizarre. AirBnBadass.
