Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug, The (2013)

  • Jackson, Peter, Popular
  • 2013, New Zealand, Peter Jackson, USA

Get Out (2017)

  • Peele, Jordan
  • 2017, Jordan Peele, USA
  • 8 Comments

A sharp and clever genre-bending horror-comedy that is timely in its racial allegory and refreshing in its execution.

Curious Case of Benjamin Button, The (2008)

  • Criterion Collection, Fincher, David
