Oddities is an odd delight
A freewheeling genre-bending delight that is scary as it is outlandish, Oddities is perhaps a little too much of everything, but it's hard to remain unimpressed when the results are this much fun.

Above the Line is an oddly bitter yet loosely playful satire about Hollywood
An unpolished, rough little gem that, while painfully clear about its inspirations, has enough gas in the tank to get where it's going on its own terms.
Godzilla Minus Zero
It isn't a modern masterpiece like Minus One, but very few are. Minus Zero is simply a very good Godzilla movie, and as the 39th addition to the monster saga, that's not bad at all.
Silver Pines is an admirable scare with rough edges
If you're a fan of horror games, Metroidvanias, and David Lynch, you owe it to yourself to play Silver Pines. It's that simple.
Final Fantasy Resonance is endless nostalgia for better and for worse
Like nostalgic ride through the old neighborhood, Final Fantasy Resonance is a breezy and charming entry to the expansive saga that doesn't quite rank up there with the all-time greats. Still, it's more Final Fantasy, and that's always a good thing.

Mineshaft: The Cruising Murders thoughtfully dissects the intersection between art and reality
A thoughtful and immensely compelling portrait of the good, bad, and downright ugly aspects of William Friedkin's beloved and reviled 80s thriller, Mineshaft is an essential time capsule, a passionate dissection of cinema, and a superlative companion piece to Cruising.
Blaise is brilliantly uncomfortable
As hysterically uncomfortable as it is funny, Blaise is a brilliantly observed satire about all the ways we needlessly complicate our lives.
Body Blow is a stylish queer neo-noir
Defiantly resisting the stereotypes hoisted upon queer cinema, Body Blow is a sleazy, visually intoxicating, and breathlessly sexy neo-noir that isn't for the faint of heart. It carries the torch lit by Paul Verhoeven with grace.
You Are The Film is a wild and unpredictable ride
A delightfully inspired microbudget love letter to cinema and the power of the imagination, You Are The Film warms the heart even as it warps your mind.
