A towering colossal film. A masterpiece, as great now as the fiftieth time and compulsively watchable. Scorsese’s best? Contrary the revisionists: quite probably.

Evil Dead Rise 2023
A hodgepodge of reference points from better films. Impressive in how unpleasant it is, but it’s in service of nothing and Rise still pulls its punches at the end.

The Black Stuff 1980
Should have called it The Bleak Stuff. The closing images of a defeated Yosser holding back tears in his work van bring to mind the lesson Homer Simpson would years later impart to us: “You tried your best and you failed miserably. The lesson is, never try.”
