Moonfall might’ve made for an entertaining disaster film but the film feels dated feeling and looking like a relic of the 1990s and a cast that includes Halle Berry who clearly looks disinterested. I suppose if you’re interested this might be worth a rental.

Dirty O’Neil is an interesting crime-drama to say the least, a bit slow early on and the central character isn’t terribly interesting, not helped by Morgan Paul who doesn’t have a whole lot of charisma.

Scream 2022 is a decent entry into the now vaunted franchise. The kills are gorier than ever and the new cast actually mostly work and it’s nice to see the three legacy cast members back one more time even if their roles are on the limited side.
Tenetacles comes to Blu-ray from KL Studio Classics and stars John Huston, Shelley Winters, Bo Hopkins, Henry Fonda and comes out April 12th.
New Year’s Evil is a ho-hum horror movie with little horror and the kills pretty standard. Save for the finale, this is a bore of a film that might have a minor following but for myself, little about this was enjoyable outside of Kip Niven’s creepy but fun performance.
