The Substance
This is a darkly funny, blood-soaked, absurd piece of body horror, where the danger lies in what we will do for acceptance.

Alien: Romulus
While ambition can be welcome, sometimes going back to the classics feels oddly fresh. That is definitely the case here.

Cuckoo
It is an unpredictable experience and one of the best horror movies so far this year.

Maxxxine
None of the three movies in this trilogy may reach greatness on their own, however, this is a fantastic total package.

Imaginary
It is an accurate example of Blumhouse horror, with a promising high concept, energetic filmmaking, a sense of humor and suspect execution.

Out Of Darkness
Overall, it is okay, with a few strong suspense scenes and, at only 82 minutes, it gets in and out efficiently.

Night Swim
Anything can work in this genre if the filmmakers can figure out how to inject tension into it. Here, they never did.

Five Nights at Freddy's
A bit of a mess; unscary, with a muddled plot and inconsistent tone.

It Lives Inside
It is pretty uneven, with a handful of strong bright spots and a bunch of derivative creature scenes that drag it down.

The Last Voyage of the Demeter
An atmospheric horror story that almost works because of a consistent mood of pure dread.
