Scream Review
It is usual for the most staunch fans of horror to have a saga that is our favorite, something that tends to fuel debates with the longest-running sagas and in particular with the slasher . And despite the fact that everyone may have their preferences, in general terms we can agree that with the Scream movies the quality has been very consistent. That consistency and brilliance was due in no small part to two of the people behind the scenes on almost every installment, Wes Craven and Kevin Williamson . Now, 11 years after the last film , Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett , the men behind the highly recommendedWedding Night , along with Guy Busick and James Vandervilt in the script, are in charge of giving the saga a new life and bringing it to fruition. And the truth is that the play could not have gone better. I'm talking about Scream (2022).

The Last King Review
From time to time I like to immerse myself in the Streaming catalogs looking for little-known things that at first glance catch my attention, I will not deny that most of the time I end up convinced that I wasted my time and after a few minutes I end up leaving.

This time it was the 2016 Norwegian film “ The Last King ” directed by Nils Gaup . Surely it is not so unknown but I had no idea it existed and that was enough for me to want to come and talk to you about it.

Belfast Review
With recent films like Roma or Minari , one gets the feeling that there is a tendency among directors both veterans and newcomers to do a little introspective exercise to narrate a key moment in their lives but in a way that offers a piece of their soul, making it easy to connect with the public. And the truth is that in the face of awards such as the Oscars , voters should think the same, because these types of proposals usually work very well. And while the fate of today's movie awards is still a bit off the mark, he might as well join that group. This is Belfast.

Honeymoon Review
In 2021 , Netflix dared with a little experiment: to release a horror trilogy such as Fear Street for three weeks, generating a bit of conversation among fans of the genre. Leigh Janiak was in charge of the writing and especially directing work , and seeing the remarkable result with that trilogy, I wanted to investigate a bit to see if she had any previous work. My search turned out to be quite positive, and taking advantage of the voice of a director in terror, I couldn't sit idly by without giving her a little halo of light. I'm talking about Honeymoon.

Joachim Trier already had a remarkable career as one of the filmmakers on the European circuit, but personally, it wasn't until Thelma that his work caught my attention and I decided to closely follow his future projects. And his latest film: The Worst Person in the World after a long tour of festivals with the occasional award has managed to reach the Oscars in the categories of best international film and best screenplay , so my expectations when approaching it were almost excessive, but fortunately everything good that had been said about the tape was true.

Although many of Agatha Christie's works are nearly a century old, they remain highly respected and influential classics in the world of mystery literature. Some of her novels and her short stories may seem simple to modern readers, as her tricks and surprises have become common in the genre.

X Review
The relationship between sex and violence is as old as time itself. Both drives are present within every human being and cinema has been a great medium when it comes to combining the symbiosis that exists between the two forces in a thousand different ways. Perhaps where this harmony is most visible is in horror films , a genre where this idea has gained special strength both to confirm it as Shakespeare stated that "Violent pleasures have violent endings" and to do something much more disruptive. Today's case is somewhat more particular in terms of its treatment of these drives. I'm talking about X (2022).

Petite Maman (Little Mom) Review
A girl helps an old woman to complete a crossword puzzle and then says goodbye to her, then the camera accompanies the girl to an adjoining room where the girl says goodbye to another old woman, the same thing happens once more until finally the little girl reaches a room where his mother is. Petite Maman places us in what is clearly a hospice for the elderly and without further explanation, we understand that the girl's grandmother, her mother's mother, has passed away. The following minutes are key to understanding the entire plot because they reflect a discreet complicity between mother and daughter, it is a complementarity that manifests itself with the little hands of the girl reaching some sandwiches into her mother's mouth while she drives.
