Trailer
Why watch this film?
A reboot of the classic horror 'Hellraiser: Hellseeker', which gives a much-needed breath of fresh air to the franchise after several failed sequels. In the new version, the story follows a young woman struggling with her addictions when she discovers an ancient puzzle box, but upon solving it, she unwittingly summons the malevolent Cenobites from another dimension. More than offering a compelling narrative, this reinterpretation of 'Hellraiser' offers great nightmare visuals, interesting revamped designs for the Cenobites, and a very interesting take on Pinhead, now played by Jamie Clayton ('Sense8'). It's a bit different from what came before, but both fans and newcomers to the franchise will enjoy it.

The Night House
Horror movies usually do well if they bring an engaging plot, a good dose of scares or intelligence in the script. Since everyone has their own interpretation of a story, many movies are a love it or hate it situation. 'The Night House' fits into this. Highly praised at the Sundance Festival, the production was a success with specialized critics in the United States. Starting from an excellent premise, which is mourning, director David Bruckner (‘The Ritual’) develops a confusing narrative, which opens so many interpretations that it gets lost. Not only that, the references to the recent 'The Invisible Man' (2020) end up taking away some of the fun of the story. 'The Night House' deals with depression, mysticism, murders, infidelity and abusive relationships, too many themes for a feature film of less than two hours. Despite this, the production delivers great scares, those not obvious ones that make you look around for figures. Rebecca Hall's performance is also worthy of praise, she is the thread of the movie.

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.
