Why watch this film?
'The Texas Chain Saw Massacre' is one of the greatest horror movie classics, responsible for etching Tobe Hooper's (also director of the frightening 'Poltergeist') name in history. This cinematic classic was remastered for its 40th anniversary, and still stands strong, with fantastic imagery and photography and a somber atmosphere - it's a must-see for horror lovers. To watch the restored version, check out the movie listings in your area: the film will be playing in more cities in the coming weeks.

Poltergeist
Released just days apart from 'E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial' and also produced by Steven Spielberg, 'Poltergeist' is its complete antithesis. After all, the movie shows the dark side of American suburbs, a kind of dark fairy tale seen through the suffering of a family. This emphasis on characters is what made the movie a modern classic of terror, in addition to its spectacular special effects (BAFTA winners and Oscar nominees). If you're a fan of 1980s cinema, this feature is a must-see.
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.
