House (1977)

  • Others
  • 1977, Japan
  • Leave a comment

Works as a drinking game โ€˜midnight B-movieโ€™ for cultists, this teenage-girls-visit-haunted-house psychedelic head trip entertains with its over-the-top and bewildering horror-comedy and creative special effects.ย

Real Pain, A (2024)

  • 2024, Poland, USA

Featuring an exceptional performance by Kieran Culkin, Eisenberg writes, produces, directs and stars in this unassuming comedy-drama that was shot primarily in Poland, about two incompatible Jewish cousins on a Holocaust tour to remember their late grandmother.

Bound (1996)

  • Others
  • 1996, Lana Wachowski, Lilly Wachowski, USA

This neo-noir thriller is a terrific feature debut by the Wachowskis, with its careening twists and turns, and upending of gender codes, as two women must work out a survival plan after an opportunistic โ€˜heistโ€™ gone wrong.ย

Fall, The (2006)

  • Others
  • 2006, India, USA
  • 2 Comments

One of the most beautifully shot movies ever made, Tarsem Singhโ€™s modern cult classic is an โ€˜elegiac epicโ€™, an intertwining of two sets of narratives about the endless imagination and despair that the human mind can experience.

Fruits of Passion (1981)

  • Others
  • 1981, France, Japan
  • Leave a comment

Far from the kind of erotica that masquerades as political art, Terayamaโ€™s largely uninteresting cult oddity featuring Klaus Kinski is an absurd tale of sadomasochism as a white man forces his mistress to become a prostitute to test her deep love for him.

An interrogator and his subject are under the scrutiny of Huiโ€™s camera as he dives into a murky part of Singaporeโ€™s legal history through a highly psychological mode that will interest adventurous cinephiles with a discerning taste for the avant-garde.

Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl (2024)

  • Others
  • 2024, UK
  • 1 Comment

The iconic duo return in another rollickingly amusing adventure as they must clear their name after being framed for crimes they didnโ€™t commit, rendered in the tactile, almost corporeal stop-motion quality that Aardman has been reliably producing for decades.ย

Salamander, The (1971)

  • Others
  • 1971, Switzerland
  • Leave a comment

This Swiss drama shares a similar spirit with the breezy films of โ€˜60s French New Wave as an exceptional Bulle Ogier plays an enigmatic woman who is the subject of two writers in this thought-provoking work about what it means to construct a person(a) through fact and fiction.

Time Masters (1982)

  • Others

  • 1 Comment

Containing the hallmarks of great sci-fi fantasy movies, this enthralling but underseen animation from the โ€˜Fantastic Planetโ€™ director, with art stylings from Mล“bius, gives us intergalactic, mind-bending travel, as an urgent rescue crew attempts to reach a boy stranded on a hostile planet.

Sweeping, intimate and emotional, Salles returns to form with his first fiction feature in 12 years as a close-knit family is irreversibly impacted by the Brazilian military dictatorship in the early 1970s.
