Mortal Kombat II (2026) 68% 2.5/5 EDIT “Mortal Kombat II reads as wonky and clumsy in its handling of the scant storytelling it boasts ... a battle of champions without any substantial buildup or pacing.” – Daily Dead May 6, 2026 Full Review Deep Water (2026) 73% 3/5 EDIT “Harlin’s back to slingin’ popcorn entertainment after his trilogy that shan’t be mentioned, which inspires hope.” – Daily Dead May 1, 2026 Full Review Mother Mary (2026) 72% 3.5/5 EDIT “It's an enigma that only Lowery could create, and while not without hiccups, proves why he's one of today's most interesting filmmakers.” – Daily Dead May 1, 2026 Full Review Lee Cronin's The Mummy (2026) 47% 2.5/5 EDIT “It's sickly comedic, properly twisted, yet a disappointing mummy movie that doesn't know when to hit the eject button.” – Daily Dead May 1, 2026 Full Review Exit 8 (2025) 93% 3.5/5 EDIT “Exit 8 is an unconventionally calculated time-loop trickster that scores another point for the video-adaptation movement.” – Daily Dead May 1, 2026 Full Review Trauma or, Monsters All (2026) 3/5 EDIT “Fessenden’s iconic independent horror voice is on display, as his under-the-radar monster series reaches its crescendo.” – Daily Dead May 1, 2026 Full Review Parasomnia (2025) 3/5 EDIT “The right moments become so articulately terrifying, and while underwhelming elsewhere, there's a refreshing endurance about Ross' follow-through.” – Daily Dead Apr 15, 2026 Full Review Thrash (2026) 43% 2.5/5 EDIT “It’s a cross between Crawl and Bait 3D, but lacks the toothy bite of either superior aquatic thriller.” – Daily Dead Apr 15, 2026 Full Review Faces of Death (2026) 68% 2.5/5 EDIT “Parts of 2026’s Faces of Death are enviable, but the overall thesis is lacking.” – Daily Dead Apr 6, 2026 Full Review The Serpent's Skin (2025) 93% 3/5 EDIT “It’s Mackay’s tenderest and possibly most crystallized vision of "Transploitation" yet.” – Daily Dead Mar 30, 2026 Full Review Forbidden Fruits (2026) 74% 3/5 EDIT “It's fun, tastefully tart, and absolutely has bite, even if you've experienced the underlying flavors before.” – Daily Dead Mar 30, 2026 Full Review Imposters (2026) 100% 3/5 EDIT “Imposters is this shifty, long-simmering, and substantive mind-teaser that skews into disaster, punched home by one heck of a finale.” – Daily Dead Mar 30, 2026 Full Review Never After Dark (2026) 100% 4/5 EDIT “Boyle's bewitching J-Horror examination of mortality and monsters flickers with this addictive liveliness despite its deceased characters.” – Daily Dead Mar 25, 2026 Full Review Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice (2026) 76% 3.5/5 EDIT “It's an unlikely combination of seeing double, evil mob bosses, and time machines that hits the spot, getting freaky with a killer ensemble of top-notch … well, killers.” – Daily Dead Mar 25, 2026 Full Review Normal (2025) 76% 4/5 EDIT “It's a little Fargo, a dash of The Last Stand, and plenty of Hot Fuzz with a Midwestern accent.” – Daily Dead Mar 23, 2026 Full Review Drag (2026) 93% 3/5 EDIT “It's a twisted take on reverse-engineered tropes that let its cast shine in spotlight moments, all leaning on Caplan's unique ability to sell being dead weight for nearly the entire duration.” – Daily Dead Mar 23, 2026 Full Review They Will Kill You (2026) 65% 3.5/5 EDIT “They Will Kill You is comparable to the Domino's order from an astoundingly baked teen who selects every topping ... It's the pepperoni, pineapple, buffalo sauce, and garlic-crusted late-night treat that's overflowing with ingredients” – Daily Dead Mar 23, 2026 Full Review Over Your Dead Body (2026) 68% 3.5/5 EDIT “Over Your Dead Body is cynical but compassionate; merciless but with tongue-in-cheek justice ... [but] doesn't avoid standard complaints of Americanized remakes.” – Daily Dead Mar 18, 2026 Full Review The Saviors (2026) 65% 3/5 EDIT “It's a quirky, comical, and cautionary tale about the broken American mindset that nails its peeping-tom thrills, but isn't as airtight as it thinks in execution.” – Daily Dead Mar 17, 2026 Full Review Pretty Lethal (2026) 57% 3.5/5 EDIT “Jewson's "girlie" action flick hits back, takes pride in its bruises, and is anything but a reductive description.” – Daily Dead Mar 17, 2026 Full Review Monitor (2026) 3.5/5 EDIT “Monitor isn't found footage, but it has a Butterfly Kisses quality to its approach (complimentary) ... a techno-horror terror that thoughtfully questions the ethics of content vetting corporations.” – Daily Dead Mar 16, 2026 Full Review Family Movie (2026) 92% 3/5 EDIT “It's [the Bacons' ode to] One Cut of the Dead, a sappy genre love letter to the act of filmmaking by creators who adore making movies.” – Daily Dead Mar 15, 2026 Full Review Brian (2026) 100% 8/10 EDIT “"Brian" is as laugh-out-loud as it is sentimentally fulfilling ... an unstoppably sweet testament to finding peace in individuality when existence seems to betray us by the hour.” – TheWrap Mar 15, 2026 Full Review Grind (2026) 95% 3/5 EDIT “Grind is shaky at points, but not enough to diminish the film’s unruly grab bag of Office Space-y nightmares. ” – Daily Dead Mar 14, 2026 Full Review Ready or Not 2: Here I Come (2026) 74% 4/5 EDIT “Radio Silence’s latest is feisty, ferocious, and back with a vengeance, stirring plenty of excitement should they want to continue making Ready or Not movies until Grace has vanquished every last tyrannical wannabe who Mr. Le Bail exposes.” – Daily Dead Mar 14, 2026 Full Review
