Six of the Worst Bosses in Horror Ahead of ‘Corporate Retreat’

A terrible job can be even worse than not having one at all, but it’s not always the work itself that makes a job unbearable. Sometimes, the real horror of a 9-5 comes in the form of bad management, and that’s likely the reason why there are so many corporate horror movies featuring sociopathic managers and supervisors. In anticipation of Aaron Fisher’s upcoming Corporate Retreat, in theaters on May 22, presenting us with a worst-case scenario where executives are forced to take part in sick games in order to save their own skins, we’ve decided to come up with a list highlighting six of the worst bosses in horror!

‘Brazil Avenue’ Star Murilo Benício, ‘Turma da Mônica’s’ Kevin Vechiatto Board Smart Comedy ‘Nico’ From Lb Entertainment, +Galeria (Exclusive)

Murilo Benício, star of smash-hit Globo telenovelas such as “The Clone,” “América” and “Brazil Avenue,” and Kevin Vechiatto who grew up in Brazil’s biggest kids franchise “Turma da Mônica,” are set to headline “Nico,” a smart comedy from Lb Entertainment, behind “Netflix” global No. 1 Non-English TV series “Sintonia.” “Nico” is produced by Lb Entertainment and +Galeria and will be distributed in Brazil by +Galeria. Many Brazilian comedies have hit gold dust as raucous vehicles for a star TV comedian, who does his shtick. “Nico’s” comedy, in contrast, is “a comedy with a story, which packs a large emotional impact and is broad and accessible,” Lb Entertainment producer Felipe Braga told Variety. Benício and Vechiatto play father Márcio and son Nico who haven’t spoken for many years but are forced to embark on a hastily organized 30-hour road trip packed together in a cramped car. Nico is described

Brazilian Behemoth Globo Hits Content Americas With ‘Justice Misconduct,’ About ‘Whatever Is Left of a Person’s Life after Justice Takes its Toll’

Brazilian TV behemoth Globo presented its world premiere preview of Brazilian series “Justice: Misconduct” at Content Americas, while also spotlighting its 2024 slate, presenting via sleek fast-paced sizzle reels its array of ever popular telenovelas such as “Crossed Paths,” “Land of Desire,” and “Perfect Love” alongside teasing the continuation of its successful “Justice” series. “Justice: Misconduct,” the series created by Manuela Dias, is a narrative of moral complexity and human connection framed by the dilemmas surrounding the notion of justice. Season 1 debuted in 2016. Set against the richly textured backdrop of Recife in Brazil, the series unfolded through interconnected stories of characters navigating the turbulent waters of justice and redemption. Season 2 takes that success, building four new stories through its run. It switches geography too, an idea from director of the series Gustavo Fernández, placing the stories in Ceilândia, Brasilia and its environs. The first season’s success was highlighted by its

Fantasia 2017 Review: Friendly Beast aka O Animal Cordial

It’s a classic plot: throw some morally questionable people into a dire situation and see who goes carnal first. When approached poorly, these stories can be among the ugliest and dullest in cinema. But when explored from angles of character and raw desire and desperation, there are wealths of dark truths to unleash. Recently shown at the Fantasia International Film Festival, Gabriela Amaral Almeida’s debut feature film, Friendly Beast (aka O Animal Cordial) fiercely proves the latter point. The cruelties are petty at first, as they usually are. Coldly charming Inácio, owner of a high-end but unpopular restaurant, forces his cook Djair and spineless waitress Sara to stay late for two new customers. Anyone who has ever worked in food service will recognize their behavior—the proud tearing down of the wait staff, nitpicking at each other until any number of people are ready to snap. When two

Fantasia 2017 Review: Friendly Beast, Man Is the Most Dangerous Animal

It's nearly closing time at a struggling restaurant. The waitress, Sara (Luciana Paes) and kitchen staff just want to go home, while the boss, Inácio (Murilo Benício) struggles with money troubles, a nagging wife, and a desire for power and control in his life. A difficult couple enters, wanting a full meal, and Inácio forces the staff to keep working. Enter a pair of robbers, and the situation gets worse; but not as bad when the boss is able to get the upper hand, and suddenly an already dangerous situation turns deadly as sides are taken and people turn to the most abhorrent behaviour in the blink of an eye. Thus begins Friendly Beast, the debut feature from Brazilian filmmaker Gabriela Amaral Almeida. It's a... [Read the whole post on screenanarchy.com...]
