  • La Piel Que Habito

    DIRECTOR: Pedro Almodovar
    CAST: Antonio Banderas Elena Anaya Jan Cornet
    Horror movies are typically made by directors who exclusively do horror. So when a filmmaker who’s usually in the art house business suddenly decides to try something else, this raises eyebrows. When Pedro Almodovar’s ‘La Piel Que Habito’ came out in 2011, the critics were severely divided. A loud and extravagant Frankestein-ish horror? Well yeah, that’s exactly what it is, and its briljant. Antonio Banderas stars as a twisted plastic surgeon trying to create the perfect synthetic skin. In order to do so, he needs a guinea pig… Read more

    DIRECTOR: Chan-wook Park
    CAST: Mia Wasikowska Nicole Kidman Matthew Goode
    Korean mastermind Chan-Woon Park (Old Boy) made his American debut with Stoker, a highly stylized and elegant film about India, a teenage girl who lives with her mother (a very creepy Nicole Kidman) in a lavish Californian villa. Her father has just died in a car crash, when suddenly her uncle Charlie appears. Charlie is charming and well-dressed, but underneath these layers of civilization appears to something much darker. A strange alliance between the traumatized girl and the sleeky uncle emerges. Read more

  • The Babadook

    DIRECTOR: Jennifer Kent
    CAST: Essie Davis Noah Wiseman Daniel Henshall
    ‘The Babadook’ is one of those rare, low-budget horror debuts we encounter once in every five years or so. The unnerving story of a widowed mother with her young son, both slowly crumbling under the fear of a mysterious book that comes to life at night, is just spot on. Director/writer Jennifer Kent does what horror filmmakers rarely do so effectively; that it is often ourselves we should fear. Read more

  • Lost River

    DIRECTOR: Ryan Gosling
    CAST: Christina Hendricks Iain De Caestecker Matt Smith
    When Ryan Gossling announced he was about to make his directorial debut, lukewarm reactions fell upon him. Even worse when the film came out; according to many, 'Lost River' was the sum of obvious influences. A bit of Lynch, a bit of Nicolas Winding Refn and a pinch of Harmony Korine. Indeed, Gosling's first effort as a director feels as a homage to the mentioned filmmakers, but in a good way. 'Lost River' is a creepy fairytale with lots of memorable scenes and stark images.

  • Get Out

    DIRECTOR: Jordan Peele
    CAST: Allison Williams Lakeith Stanfield, Daniel Kaluuya
    Get Out might seem like a genre film, but goes deeper than just being scary and plays into subtle social fears. It's about a black guy who visits the parents of his new white girlfriend for the first time. His parents seem perfectly fine, stereotypical liberal people at first. But the longer he stays at his in-laws, the more unsettling things start to unravel. A brilliant movie that is scary, hilarious AND thought-provoking at the same time. Read more
