There’s probably no one I’d rather get drunk with more than Oz Perkins.

Mickey 17 2025
Odd, entertaining, and deeply unserious, Mickey 17 is more a chamber piece about interpersonal relationships than the zany sci-fi romp being advertised. Gleeful in its lampooning of religious fundamentalism while being completely uninterested in investigating it, the film wildly switches tones from slapstick to cynicism, throws narrative curveballs, and sloppily shifts focus throughout its (surprisingly long) runtime.
At its best when it leans into the absurdity of its concepts, its worst when trying to pull your heartstrings through half-earned sentimental…

Snowpiercer 2013
“My friend, you suffer from the misplaced optimism of the doomed.”
Bong’s bloody and prescient class war epic. Few things better than the sheer terror of the scene when they open the second cabin door to an army of masked men wearing body armor and wielding medieval weapons. Probably the best ensemble cast in Bong’s catalog and Evans gives a scorcher. Phenomenal score by Marco Beltrami.
We only have 6 years left to figure out how to avoid this.

Black Bag 2025
Crafty, stylish, slick as an otter’s back. If you can get your head around all the spy jargon, this is a damn good time at the movies. My favorite score of the year so far. I’ll likely never be rich, married, or powerful but this is exactly how I imagine rich, married, powerful people spend the majority of their time.

The Substance 2024
An answer to the age old question of “what if Zennials took Ozempic and got into jazzercise?”, Coralie Fargeat’s stunningly crafted social satire is the exact kind of bold, stylish, nasty thriller we need more of in modern cinema. A Jekyll & Hyde tale that comments on celebrity, age, and absurd beauty standards, The Substance also has the brawn to be a disgusting grindhouse movie in conversation with classics from Cronenberg, Gordon, and Romero.
By the end of its punishing bloodbath…
