Why watch this film?
Defined as a Filipino spiritual horror movie set in Greece, 'Agia Emi' is the powerful debut of filmmaker Araceli Lemos. The story is about two Filipino-descended sisters, Emy and Teresa, who must stay in the Filipino Catholic community in Greece when their mother is forced to return to her homeland. However, things start to change when Teresa gets pregnant and Emy feels drawn to a mysterious condition that makes her bleed, which may have a connection to her mother's healing abilities. 'Agia Emi' is the kind of movie that blends horror and ambiguous mysticism, leaving the viewer to draw their own conclusions and presenting the female body as a terrain of opposing forces: beauty and monstrosity.

There's Something in the Barn
In this holiday horror comedy, Bill moves his American wife Carol and children Nora and Lucas to Norway where he's inherited a family estate. While Bill dreams of turning the adjourning barn into a bed and breakfast, his family struggles to adapt to Scandinavian life. Lucas discovers a mischievous barn elf from ancient folklore living in the barn with a set of rules the family must follow. When Bill dismisses Lucas's warnings and fails to follow sacred holiday traditions, the elf plots to get rid of the American intruders at any cost.
Thanksgiving
Among so many horror productions, it's challenging to stand out with a compelling plot or enough audiovisual creativity. It's also difficult to achieve the delicate balance between humor and violence to create an effective horror comedy. After some failed experiments (even in other genres), director Eli Roth (Hostel) returns to his roots—and basics—with a feast of gore and twisted yet effective humor. In Thanksgiving, a tragedy during Black Friday prompts the appearance of a serial killer inspired by the American holiday. As victims of his violent crimes begin to emerge in a Massachusetts town, the townspeople must uncover his identity before it's too late. A familiar story, yes, but with witty social commentary and, above all, a level of violence as extreme as it is ridiculous and entertaining, sure to satisfy fans of gore and the director.
