Trailer
Why watch this film?
In search of a cure for Alzheimer's, humans experiment on sharks. The sharks become intelligent. Humans become the prey of the deadliest killer ever created. With this premise, typical of a B-movie, Deep Blue Sea begins. It is simple and banal entertainment, with some entertaining action scenes (and perhaps the most iconic death scene in all of Samuel L. Jackson's career). If you like shark movies with somewhat ridiculous premises, this is an established classic.

The Misfits
The wave of B-action movies is still going strong. And this time, we have a James Bond in the cast, Pierce Brosnan is the star of 'The Misfits'. The feature film follows Brosnan as a notorious criminal who is recruited by a group of thieves to carry out a big robbery. With a weak script, the production makes up for it with the locations and cinematography which is quite acceptable. It's good to warn that: it's not a movie that meets expectations, so if you don't have many, you'll certainly have fun.
Cleaner
In 'Cleaner', Tom Cutler is a retired police officer who still, in a way, remains active in his old field: now he works cleaning crime scenes. The man, however, finds himself in trouble when he erases the evidence of a mysterious murder that was never investigated. Starring Samuel L. Jackson (from 'Pulp Fiction') and Eva Mendes (from 'Hitch: The Date Doctor'), the movie received great reviews upon its release in 2007. At the time, The Hollywood Reporter - an entertainment-focused website - stated: "Jackson's perfect portrayal of a cop". It's an action classic!
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.
