Trailer
Why watch this film?
Directed and starred in by Patrick Wilson (from The Conjuring), Insidious: The Red Door follows Josh Lambert (Wilson) on his mission to take his son Dalton (Ty Simpkins) to his new college dorm room. They don't get along and, like with the viewer, they can't find common ground. Silence reigns and neither of them knows where to begin the conversation. But after leaving the kid in his new place and driving away, Josh starts to realize that life without apparitions is far from just a distant memory. Father and son start having eerie visions that distort reality. Josh is alone, not knowing what path to take, while Dalton only has the help of his new roommate Chris (Sinclair Daniel), who tries to better understand what's going on. From then on, Wilson abuses of sudden jump scares to frighten the audience, with little story. The more demanding viewer won't find much entertainment in this movie, which seems to be destined solely to those who enjoy jumping in fear in the movie theater seat. A horror movie with its highs and lows, just like the whole franchise, but that seems to have a loyal audience and one that doesn't seem to want to retire soon.

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.
28 Days Later

Carried by animals and humans, the virus turns those it infects into homicidal maniacs – and it’s absolutely impossible to contain.
The Jack in the Box Rises
