Edie Arnold Is a Loser (2026) EDIT “This film feels like what might have happened if Twisted Sister’s “I Wanna Rock” video from 1984 was extended to feature length, and that is exactly my jam.” – ScreenAnarchy Mar 20, 2026 Full Review Ready or Not 2: Here I Come (2026) 75% EDIT “Maybe Ready or Not 2 should’ve stayed in hiding a little bit longer, perhaps until it came up with a way to grab the audience that we hadn’t seen before.” – ScreenAnarchy Mar 20, 2026 Full Review Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice (2026) 79% EDIT “Takes the best elements and possibilities of the genres its playing in and blends them to create an emotionally fulfilling rollercoaster ride where you might actually shed a tear at the end.” – ScreenAnarchy Mar 18, 2026 Full Review They Will Kill You (2026) 76% EDIT “Equal parts Evil Dead and Itchy & Scratchy, Sokolov’s affection for over-the-top set pieces as well as a knack for creating uniquely memorable visuals is bolstered by a cast empowered to do the absolute most in every situation” – ScreenAnarchy Mar 18, 2026 Full Review The Fox (2026) EDIT “Bless The Fox and all of its playful weirdness, we need more of that in this world, and of course, more Jai Courtney wouldn’t hurt, either.” – ScreenAnarchy Mar 18, 2026 Full Review Grind (2026) 94% EDIT “Poignant, relatable, and gleefully gory, Grind is a middle finger to The Man that we can all get behind.” – ScreenAnarchy Mar 18, 2026 Full Review Over Your Dead Body (2026) 73% EDIT “Uproariously funny, absolutely brutal in its disregard for the structural integrity of the human body, and lightning paced with jokes and stunts coming fast and furious, Over Your Dead Body is a definite winner for fans of bloodthirsty black comedy.” – ScreenAnarchy Mar 18, 2026 Full Review Hokum (2026) 95% EDIT “A gripping story that unrelentingly ramps up the tension while simultaneously delivering some of the year’s best jump scares.” – ScreenAnarchy Mar 17, 2026 Full Review Never After Dark (2026) 100% EDIT “Stunningly realized, fastidiously scripted and executed on every level, and genuinely frightening, Never After Dark is a beautiful nightmare from which I never wanted to wake up.” – ScreenAnarchy Mar 17, 2026 Full Review Imposters (2026) EDIT “Every time you think you know exactly where Imposters is going, it defiantly defies expectation, zigging where you think it’s going to zag” – ScreenAnarchy Mar 17, 2026 Full Review Tu Yaa Main (2026) 91% EDIT “Tu Yaa Main works as much as a romantic drama as it does a survival horror, and it excels in both areas.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 16, 2026 Full Review Whistle (2025) 63% EDIT “[A] textbook case of "turn off your brain and enjoy the ride" that never quite rises to the level of guilty pleasure. Unfortunately, this Whistle is more of a sad trombone.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 4, 2026 Full Review The Well (2025) 41% EDIT “Thrives on a sparse aesthetic. What flourish there is in the film is largely narrative, as the imagery tells a tale of a world in which there is no time or energy to spare. ” – ScreenAnarchy Jan 21, 2026 Full Review Night Patrol (2025) 53% EDIT “[A] rousingly entertaining collective trauma-centered bloodbath, eschewing the tedious navel gazing that often afflicts such enterprises.” – ScreenAnarchy Jan 15, 2026 Full Review Anaconda (2025) 48% EDIT “[T]he rare reinvention that acknowledges the faults of its source material – Cajun Jon Voight, anyone? – and exploits them for the jokes they always were... it surprised the hell out of me, and that’s exactly what I needed.” – ScreenAnarchy Dec 29, 2025 Full Review Black Phone 2 (2025) 72% EDIT “[A]t least the filmmakers tried something new with the latest iteration of these characters, however, this time the tone just feels uneven and the film is pushing in too many different directions at once... half way through I was ready to hang up.” – ScreenAnarchy Oct 17, 2025 Full Review Re-Animator (1985) 89% EDIT “The film is like a symphony, all of the parts play together in perfect harmony.” – ScreenAnarchy Oct 15, 2025 Full Review Find Your Friends (2025) EDIT “As bold a feature debut as I’ve ever seen. Love it or hate it, it’s impossible to remain neutral on Find Your Friends, and that may be the highest compliment a film can be paid.” – ScreenAnarchy Sep 24, 2025 Full Review HIM (2025) 31% EDIT “[HIM] leaves no room for introspection, no room for interpretation, it simply throws a messy spiral right at the audience’s face and expects them to catch it before it destroys the bridge of their nose. ” – ScreenAnarchy Sep 19, 2025 Full Review Every Heavy Thing (2025) 100% EDIT “A thriller that can stand toe to toe with any independent film, but with a unique outré aural and visual sense, Every Heavy Thing is Mickey Reece’s best film since he jumped into the genre film world.” – ScreenAnarchy Sep 2, 2025 Full Review The Return of the Living Dead (1985) 71% EDIT “The mix of extremely solid fright gags, fantastic comedy, and a razor sharp script from O'Bannon have made The Return of the Living Dead one for the ages.” – ScreenAnarchy Aug 6, 2025 Full Review The Bearded Girl (2025) EDIT “A charming story about the ways in which we are both beholden to and repulsed by the traditions and family obligations laid at our feet, The Bearded Girl is sure to speak to young girls in a way that will truly matter.” – ScreenAnarchy Aug 6, 2025 Full Review The Degenerate: The Life and Films of Andy Milligan (2025) EDIT “A powerfully empathetic portrait of an artist sorely misunderstood in his own time and beyond, The Degenerate is an enlightening film that will undoubtedly encourage viewers to explore his bonkers career and perhaps consider it from a different angle.” – ScreenAnarchy Jun 20, 2025 Full Review Final Destination Bloodlines (2025) 92% EDIT “Final Destination: Bloodlines puts its foot on the gas from minute one and doesn’t let up until you’ve laughed, cried, cheered, and cringed yourself silly. ” – ScreenAnarchy Jun 12, 2025 Full Review Queens of the Dead (2025) 84% EDIT “One of my favorite horror comedies of the year, Queens of the Dead is an absolute blast that surprised the hell out of me.” – ScreenAnarchy Jun 12, 2025 Full Review
