Why watch this film?
'Crawl' uses the elements of "monster movies", a subgenre of horror that pits humans against beasts, to become one of the surprises of 2019. Perhaps Alexandre Aja hasn't repeated the brutality that characterized him in films like 'High Tension', but this movie definitely has a bit of that impact. The feature film is simple and was designed for quick consumption - and that is its point in favor, because its short plans and its accelerated rhythm make it exciting and fun, despite walking the thin line between horror and ridiculousness.

The 9th Life of Louis Drax
Jamie Dornan, the star of 'Fifty Shades of Grey', plays a psychiatrist who takes on a very special case: Louis Drax has survived seven accidents and is now in a coma in the hospital after falling off a cliff. His father is suspected of trying to kill the boy. But is this the truth?
Oxygen
French filmmaker Alexandre Aja gained notoriety in cinema by bringing tense stories to the big screen, regardless of the production level, such as 'Killer Predators' and 'High Tension'. In 'Oxygène', the filmmaker continues with his trademark in an even more tense and claustrophobic setting. In this Netflix exclusive production, Aja follows the desperation of Elizabeth (Mélanie Laurent), who wakes up in a cryogenic chamber at the wrong time. She does not know who she is, how she got there, or how to solve the drop in oxygen levels. With an exciting start, 'Oxygène' draws attention to the controlled environment, almost restricted throughout the 100 minutes to the space of the cryogenic chamber, playing with the sensations of the viewer. Too bad that, in the second half, first-time screenwriter Christie LeBlanc forgets that "less is more" and bets on a series of twists that only tire the viewer. But it's still a good movie, with tension at its peak and Laurent's (‘Respire’) and Mathieu Amalric's surefire performance as the voice of an artificial intelligence.
Thriller
Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey 2
Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey 2 is the unlikely sequel to the feature film that placed the characters of this playful and childlike universe into a world of violence and horror. However, don't expect a production as weak as the previous film: with the success of the first installment at the box office, the production had more money to invest, and thus Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey 2 manages to be more realistic, violent, and impressive compared to the first film. The characters' masks are much scarier, and it ceases to be a complete joke. It's still difficult to take the film entirely seriously, especially with this bizarre premise of Pooh and his friends seeking bloody revenge, but you can already feel more fear and, above all, immerse yourself in the wave of violence that the film promotes. To have fun with friends.
