LEE CRONIN’S THE MUMMY: The Most Viscerally Upsetting Studio Horror Film Ever (Highest Praise) “What if your missing daughter was turned into the Sloth Sin from Se7en?” is a horrifying logline Lee Cronin’s The Mummy is one of the most viscerally upsetting horror films I’ve ever seen.

MOTHER MARY is a Scintillating Psychodrama A sensual and spectral study of a fractured friendship, and creative pairing Like David Lowery’s other spiritual creations The Green Knight and A Ghost Story, Mother Mary is impeccably considered, deeply layered, resplendent in presentation, and unafraid to dally with the supernatural. It’s a film steeped in longing and artistry, a metaphysical chamber piece that […] The post MOTHER MARY is a Scintillating Psychodrama appeared first on Cinapse.

Raylan Givens and the Matter of Giving up Anger The pilot episode of FX’s Justified closes with Marshall Raylan Givens, without invitation, visiting his ex-wife at dawn. From the jump, Raylan’s life has been a bombardment of aggressively violent confrontations. He is violent by choice and, fulfilling the promise of the show’s title, justified in being so. Yet Raylan is unsettled, seeking his ex-wife’s […] The post Raylan Givens and the Matter of Giving up Anger appeared first on Cinapse.
