Split (2016) |
Split is good, 'ole fashioned Shyamalan. It will greatly reward those who have still stuck with the filmmaker throughout his career and will hopefully introduce a new generation to his special brand of storytelling. - Movies.com

Better Watch Out (2016) |
The reason why I'm nervous to talk too much about it is because one of the movie's biggest strengths is having the audience constantly wondering where the line is drawn, and wondering what each character is capable of. - Movies.com

The Invitation (2015) |
Thanks to some remarkable performances all around from its stellar cast, a deft directorial hand from Karyn Kusama, and a dark script that needles its way into your brain, it's a story and experience you'll not soon forget. - Movies.com

The Visit (2015) |
A messed-up fairy tale that often nails the sweet spot between scaring us and letting us laugh at how scared we are. It's crowd-pleasing horror, the kind that can push moviegoers to the edge of their seats and send them to the water cooler the next day. - New York Daily News

Oculus (2013) |
Director Mike Flanagan (Absentia) apparently has not been paying attention to the rules of making mainstream horror movies in America, and that's probably why Oculus is one of the best American horror movies in years. - Movies.com

Europa Report (2013) |
If you want some actual science in your science fiction, though, the only 2013 movie (so far; Gravity is still coming) that delivers is Europa Report. And oh how it does deliver. - Movies.com

Attack the Block (2011) |
Some may complain about Cornish's readiness to assault your eyes and eardrums with zero warning, but a few loud bolts from the shadows still shouldn't result in anyone walking away unimpressed. - Cinematical

The Innkeepers (2011) |
It's this profound synchronicity between what the audience thinks and feels and what the characters feel -- a synchronicity all too often missing from most horror movies -- that elevate West's already remarkable instincts even higher. - Cinematical

The Adjustment Bureau (2011) |
Even if The Adjustment Bureau does have a few permanent bruises from running the Hollywood gauntlet, it's still a valiant effort about reconciling destiny and desire that pays off in intelligent, playful and memorable ways. - Cinematical

The Roommate (2011) |
It's efficiently-produced padding that can be used to fluff out the resumes of a few young Hollywood members. - Cinematical

Devil (2010) |
Don't let the Shyamalan snickering sway you from seeing this in theaters. You're bound to see it on DVD or cable down the line and regret that it took you that long to discover how good of a film it actually is. - Cinematical

Machete (2010) |
It's disappointing that a film with this many decapitations and naked Lindsay Lohans can be so boring. - Hollywood.com

A Nightmare on Elm Street (2010) |
Jackie Earle Haley is an excellent successor to the original's Robert Englund. Freddy Krueger isn't just scary again, he's the most disturbing he's ever been. - Hollywood.com
