    The Monkey

    ★★

    A gory horror comedy that wasn’t that that funny, wasn’t scary, and honestly could have been gorier. A few kills are clever sequences, but others are just lazy. It’s disappointing this intriguing premise was half-baked.

  • Heart Eyes

    Heart Eyes

    ★★½

    I don’t know that I’ve ever seen a horror rom-com before, so Heart Eyes gets points for that, but it was a little too cheesy.

    Skinamarink is the only movie bold enough to ask the question, “what if a fever dream was boring as hell?”

    Kyle Edward Ball, I award you no points and may God have mercy on your soul.

    Sydney Sweeney, I owe you an apology, I was not familiar with your game. What starts as a stereotypical, supernatural flick turns into something much darker and subversive, and by the climactic final scene Sweeney is acting with a capital “A.”

    The story of how this was made is cool too: Sweeney auditioned 10 years ago and loved the story, but the production fell through. Then Sweeney became a headliner and used her newfound star-power to bring the film back to life by producing it herself — revising the script, hiring a director, finding financiers, and selling the film to Neon. Badass.
