Another week, another new reason to be excited about some new films and series coming this year and next. Andrew Garfield delivers a chilling warning, Elizabeth Holmes and Nathan Fielder have a moment, and more below of this months biggest trailers so far.
The fall festival season is taking shape. The Venice Film Festival concluded its events on September 12, announcing its winners, and the Toronto International Film Festival kicked off on September 10, showing a variety of films including Rogue Trooper and Coward. Also this week, Zach Cregger stepped away from the director’s chair on Gladys, and Adolescence’s Stephen Graham joined Michael Mann’s Heat 2. Widow’s Bay also dominated the Emmys with eight wins at the Creative Arts Ceremony, with the final night of the awards to take place Monday, September 14.
Julián is another symphony for the senses from Cartoon Saloon, delivering a powerful, thematically rich story about the value of being yourself.
Coward has a lot of powerful, effective filmmaking to recommend, with top-of-the-line craft and impressive central performances, but ultimately is a few choices away from being a “great” feature. It’s already been selected as Belgium’s submission for Best International Feature for this awards cycle, so there will be more conversation to come on how it fits into the race.
I always find that the cult comic book movies take infinitely more creative liberties than Marvel and DC, which have created an ever-tiring subgenre of their own. The most entertaining comic book movies are the ones that are inherently subversive, unconventional, and even weird. Enter “2000 AD,” the British cult comic book that gave fans […]
As the festival buzz winds down and other major film festivals begin to take shape and galvanize public interest, the prestigious Venice Film Festival awards are slowly taking form as the jury decides who the winners will be. This year’s jury, led by Maggie Gyllenhaal, includes filmmakers and writers from around the world. Understanding their […]
'Black Zombie' director Maya Annik Bedward spoke with The Rolling Tape about zombies, Haiti, and the history behind the living dead.
Premature might look like a typical rom-com, but it becomes surprisingly personal, reflecting a Glasgow charm.
Zombies are an iconic feature of horror that have existed for almost a century, the earliest representation appearing in White Zombie (1932). However, how much do we really know about the roots of the zombie, where did they come from, and what does it tell us about our culture and our understanding of this trope? […]
Na Hong-jin's 'Hope' is pure gonzo action filmmaking that would leave Michael Bay in bewilderment.
Nicole Kidman and Sandra Bullock stun in 'Practical Magic 2,' a spell-binding sequel packed to the brim with romance, midnight margaritas, and sisterly bickering.
Following its milestone 50th Festival, the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) is back, kicking off September 10 and running until September 20, 2026. Coming just off the heels of the Venice Film Festival, TIFF marks an exciting time for the Fall Festival season, featuring North American and World Premieres. This year, Kasey Dunifer, Nadia Arain, […]
Timothy Hall's independent film is a melancholic queer southern romance that deserves to be seen.
There’s no doubt, Kahn ingratiates himself with the material, yet it never feels like he’s exploring more than what he’s comfortable with, or adding dimensions to characters beyond what their traumas would suggest. 15/18 (A Place to Heal) shows an unvarnished portrait of mental health afflicting young adults who are on the verge of being independent. But by the time the ending nears, it never feels like we learned anything more than at the beginning.
Thank God! Furious is renewed for Season 2, as per Deadline, and I cannot get enough of these damaged yet ferocious characters. I want to see what more they could bring to the table. Whether the story picks up directly from the devastating events of the finale or opens an entirely new chapter, it will be exciting to see how far Furious is willing to go.
