Updates from the sofa

Passenger begins with a creepy highway accident and a strong supernatural-horror setup. Paul breaks down what worked, what became frustrating, who may enjoy it, and whether the movie is worth watching, with a clear spoiler warning before the ending discussion.

Out of the Further still knows how to make Paul jump, but its new rules for The Further sometimes feel more gimmicky than scary. Here is the spoiler-free verdict, theater recommendation, and spoiler discussion.

Obsession is dark, uncomfortable, gory, and surprisingly layered—a horror movie about toxic love, control, consent, and the consequences of getting exactly what you wished for.

Primate delivers bloody kills, tense moments, and a ridiculous slasher-style chimp—but weak characters and gimmicky writing keep it from hitting the mark.
