Why watch this film?
Imagine a bizarre and somewhat scary mix of the killer doll Chucky and the artificial intelligence HAL 9000 from '2001: A Space Odyssey'. The result, without a doubt, will be something very close to the doll-title of 'M3gan', a horror from Blumhouse produced by James Wan ('Insidious', 'The Conjuring'). The movie, directed by Gerard Johnstone ('Housebound'), tells the story of a toy engineer (Allison Williams) who develops this strange and full of personality M3gan doll to make company for her niece (Violet McGraw) who suffers from the death of her parents in an accident. From there, in this mix of killer toys with horrendous artificial intelligences, we follow this relationship becoming increasingly toxic, in which a child simply does not know how to live without this realistic doll. Although there is a lack of personality in several moments of the story, which would certainly be more powerful if it were directed by Wan himself, 'M3gan' entertains, scares and shows that many horror stories, which could be banal, stand out when they are not taken seriously.

Horror
The Exorcism
The Exorcism marks the second film featuring star Russell Crowe in an exorcism role within a year—the other being the fun and carefree The Pope's Exorcist. Here, however, Crowe isn't exactly an exorcist but an actor playing this common type of character in a horror film. Marked by filming delays, interrupted during the pandemic and resumed four years later, the feature attempts to play with the metanarrative of the proposal and how actors relate to their characters, making brief comments on how the stories they portray can seep into the lives of the actors themselves. It is far (very far!) from a perfect film, with a broken rhythm and a glaring lack of depth. However, it can still be entertaining—despite all the parental drama—to watch Russell Crowe once again portray this character battling demons.

Run Rabbit Run
Loss and family trauma have been fertile themes in horror in recent years, with films like The Babadook and Relic. Understandably, similar themes can become tiresome, which could be said about Run Rabbit Run. The film follows a fertility doctor (Sarah Snook, Succession), whose seven-year-old daughter (Lily LaTorre) begins to exhibit strange behaviors that mimic those of a deceased family member. The movie builds tension around this mystery, gradually revealing the events that led to the past tragedy. Its lack of novelty is compensated by a genuinely tense and terrifying atmosphere, with strong performances from Snook and debutante Lily LaTorre.
