Grafted (2024)
78%
EDIT
“The movie has plenty of bright ideas but sadly loses a little focus on how to deliver them. It’s a lot of fun for sure, but the higher end of actually making a point about the surface consumerist 21st Century world gets somewhat muddled.” –

EDIT
“Itch! is an old-school horror tale which successfully brings in perfectly explained motivations to its characters’ actions and explores difficult feelings and emotions. More than anything else though, it’s a fun horror flick.” –

Dream Team (2024)
EDIT
“Best viewed as a loving parody of 1990s entertainment excesses with a hallucinogenic twist, if you’re still up and haven’t slept for some time, Dream Team, could be just the ticket. ” –
