Why watch this film?
A Hungarian horror movie with an interesting perspective. Post Mortem follows a wandering young man who, after surviving the war, works as a post mortem photographer. Guided by the vision of a girl, he ends up in a village plagued by mysterious deaths and apparitions. Tempted to leave immediately, he soon decides to investigate the intentions of the ghosts in the village with the help of Anna, the orphan girl from his vision. The script of this movie is somewhat convoluted and ends up falling into the conventional. However, its approach to appearances in photographs is interesting, so it's worth giving it a chance if you're a fan of the genre. Read more in our full review of Post Mortem.

Presenting the bereaved an opportunity for one final, indelible memory of their dead loved ones, Tomás creates family photos in which the living and the dead are posed together. Haunted by a vision of an orphaned girl, Tomás is drawn to a disease-stricken village that its inhabitants claim is overrun by ghosts.

Horror
The Nightman
The Nightman a dramatic thriller that explores the dangerous boundary between love and darkness. The story follows a young pregnant woman who begins to question the perfection of her boyfriend upon discovering his possible involvement in mysterious disappearances and murders, linked to his sleepwalking behavior. With praised performances and precise direction, the film delves into complex themes of relationships and personal dilemmas, keeping the audience engaged in its dark suspense.
Abigail
Abigail demonstrates why we should keep an eye on the director duo Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, especially when they have original material at their disposal (they also directed Scream 5 and 6, with mixed results). Abigail is a film that manages to balance the terror and tragedy of its characters with the absurdity of its premise, thanks to a clever script that plays with the conventions of vampire literature, careful direction, and a phenomenal cast (led by Mexican actress Melissa Barrera and Dan Stevens) that fully utilizes their roles. The plot follows a group of kidnappers tasked with a delicate job: to kidnap a millionaire's daughter for ransom. However, it all turns out to be a trap: beneath the guise of a 12-year-old girl, the victim is actually an ancient vampire who likes to play with her food. Like Ready or Not in its time, this film is self-aware, pushing its story and violence to the most absurd and fun limits without falling into self-parody. It won’t change the history of horror cinema, but it’s an excellent (and even stylish for a film of its genre, I dare say) choice for a fun time at the movies with friends.
