Why watch this film?
When "[REC]" premiered, the "found footage" device was already widely known, but the movie is a demonstration that, in the right hands, the device can be used for a glorious and immersive horror experience that will be hard to forget. Directed by Paco Plaza and Jaume Balagueró, this Spanish production is one of the most remembered zombie horror films of the 21st century so far.

The Vault
It is natural to think of 'La casa de papel' when we talk about robberies in Spain, due to the popularity of the series. It is important to say that this movie has nothing to do with the show, however, it entertains in the same way. Very well filmed, with a good cast and story, 'Way Down' is realistic, fun and serves as a pastime, mainly by using the World Cup as a backdrop. It may not be the most surprising crime movie in the world, but it is worth watching.

Venus
From Spanish filmmaker Jaume Balagueró (La Casa de Papel), Venus is a sensational horror proposal that bets on both blood splattering in the style of a slasher, as well as a peculiar lovecraftian sensibility à la Mandy. The story follows a young nightclub dancer (Ester Expósito from Élite) who is wounded after stealing a suitcase full of ecstasy. Taking refuge in her sister and niece's apartment, she soon discovers that there are even more sinister supernatural forces at play. The plot gets a bit stuck between its subplot of mobsters and its cosmic evil, which makes this last aspect not as powerful as it could be. Nonetheless, it's still an hallucinatory journey that will leave all genre fans satisfied.
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.
