Gail Daughtry and the Celebrity Sex Pass (2026) 73% 5/10 EDIT “The movie throws a lot of jokes at the audience, and the vast majority simply aren’t funny enough, especially given that this goofy film’s sole purpose is to make the audience laugh.” – Next Best Picture Jan 27, 2026 Full Review Wicker (2026) 92% 8/10 EDIT “"Wicker" is hilarious, vulgar, and ultimately heartwarming. It’s a fable brought to life through a screenplay with a unified dialogue style. The extensive makeup work on Alexander Skarsgård’s character is astounding.” – Next Best Picture Jan 27, 2026 Full Review I Want Your Sex (2026) 88% 7/10 EDIT “This is a movie about the repression of sexuality in the modern day, but made in such a way as to be relatively more palatable than some of his middle-finger-on-celluloid films of the past.” – Next Best Picture Jan 25, 2026 Full Review The Moment (2026) 57% 6/10 EDIT “Those who yearn for a return to Brat Summer will find themselves happily bumpin’ that, but any viewers who feel nothing at the sight of the color tennis ball green would do well to pass.” – Next Best Picture Jan 25, 2026 Full Review Paralyzed by Hope: The Maria Bamford Story (2026) 8/10 EDIT “The affection and admiration the filmmakers have for Bamford shine through without ever casting her in a hagiographic light. This bio-doc successfully does what all films of its type strive to do: it turns all viewers into fans of its subject.” – Next Best Picture Jan 23, 2026 Full Review The Dutchman (2025) 57% 4/10 EDIT “The stage drama packs layers of dense thematic meaning into its short runtime, whereas "The Dutchman" passes through understanding, logic, and even abstract reasoning like an express train bound for its final stop.” – Next Best Picture Jan 8, 2026 Full Review My Undesirable Friends: Part I - Last Air in Moscow (2024) 100% 8/10 EDIT “Julia Loktev’s stirring documentary is somehow simultaneously epic and intimate. And despite being 324 minutes long, at the film’s conclusion, viewers will undoubtedly be eager for the forthcoming Part II promised in the end credits.” – Next Best Picture Dec 30, 2025 Full Review We Bury the Dead (2024) 86% 7/10 EDIT “"We Bury the Dead" manages to pump new blood into the far-from-fresh corpse that is the zombie movie.” – Next Best Picture Dec 29, 2025 Full Review Ella McCay (2025) 22% B- EDIT “Despite the intentionally absent details (we aren’t even definitively told what political party Ella belongs to), Ella McCay – both the film and the character – is delightful, at times mystifyingly so.” – AwardsWatch Dec 10, 2025 Full Review Silent Night, Deadly Night (2025) 77% 6/10 EDIT “"Silent Night, Deadly Night" is no great piece of art, but in the same way that candy stuffed in a stocking is far from a five-star meal, it doesn’t matter to those seeking it out, and it’s enjoyable all the same.” – Next Best Picture Dec 10, 2025 Full Review Five Nights at Freddy's 2 (2025) 16% 1/10 EDIT “There’s simply nothing of value here, not even the thrill of an adrenaline rush from a cheap jump scare. Any attempts at shock are hollow and laughable.” – Next Best Picture Dec 4, 2025 Full Review Trap House (2025) 52% 5/10 EDIT “Such wince-inducing plot points are de rigueur for many action films from around the turn of the last century; it’s just surprising to see them being used in a new movie.” – Next Best Picture Nov 15, 2025 Full Review Palestine 36 (2025) 100% C+ EDIT “Although it’s understandable that Jacir would want to cover as much ground as possible when telling the story of such a wide-ranging, complicated event, the film isn’t structured in a way that builds energy in a captivating way.” – AwardsWatch Oct 30, 2025 Full Review Hallow Road (2025) 89% 8/10 EDIT “For those who like their thrillers tense, unpredictable, and totally engrossing, be sure to take a drive down “Hallow Road.”” – Next Best Picture Oct 29, 2025 Full Review Whitetail (2025) 90% C+ EDIT “[Natasha] O’Keeffe really is that great, giving a physical performance that does a better job at providing the film with depth than the shockingly shallow spoken words.” – AwardsWatch Oct 26, 2025 Full Review Put Your Soul on Your Hand and Walk (2025) 98% A- EDIT “It just may stand as one of the most important films about the Gaza genocide, showcasing the bravery and perseverence of the Palestinian people even as they face undeniably mightier forces.” – AwardsWatch Oct 26, 2025 Full Review The Hand That Rocks The Cradle (2025) 42% 5/10 EDIT “Rather than feeling like the kind of culture-shifting moment the original film became, this remake is more of a shrug, destined to be sadly scrolled past by disinterested streaming audiences.” – Next Best Picture Oct 22, 2025 Full Review Black Phone 2 (2025) 72% C EDIT “It’s pretty clear the story is the result of forced “we need to make a sequel” brainstorming sessions following the success of the previous film.” – AwardsWatch Oct 16, 2025 Full Review Tinsman Road (2025) 9/10 EDIT “With “Tinsman Road,” Banfitch has unlocked a new level of honesty for the horror genre.” – Next Best Picture Oct 12, 2025 Full Review Shelby Oaks (2023) 55% B+ EDIT “Shelby Oaks signals a promising start for Stuckmann’s directorial career. As shown by this film, his horror filmmaking instincts are finely tuned. ” – AwardsWatch Oct 9, 2025 Full Review Strange Journey: The Story of Rocky Horror (2025) 97% 8/10 EDIT “Thanks to lively interviews with every living member of "Rocky Horror's" creation and amazing archival footage, this is essential viewing for any "Rocky Horror" fan.” – Next Best Picture Oct 1, 2025 Full Review Bone Lake (2024) 84% 6/10 EDIT “Like an underwhelming vacation, “Bone Lake” has its equal share of pluses and minuses. For every frustrating decision by the screenplay, director Mercedes Bryce Morgan makes just as many ingenious filmmaking choices” – Next Best Picture Sep 25, 2025 Full Review HIM (2025) 30% C- EDIT “But by the time Him reaches its truly ridiculous final sequence, it’s hard to muster up even a forced feeling of shock.” – AwardsWatch Sep 18, 2025 Full Review The Kidnapping of Arabella (2025) 3/10 EDIT “The cynical, aloof energy displayed by every other character, combined with the exhausting non sequitur-based humor, make the film a, frankly, irritating watch.” – Next Best Picture Sep 5, 2025 Full Review Below the Clouds (2025) 94% 5/10 EDIT “The film’s pace is deliberately extremely slow, to the point of tedium, or even worse, boredom.” – Next Best Picture Sep 5, 2025 Full Review
