    Don't Look Now

    ★★

    #43: Paranormal horror (ghosts, haunted house, possession, etc)

    For such a highly regarded film amongst cinephiles and filmmakers alike, I'm honestly a bit perplexed at how much Don't Look Now didn't work for me. Even with all the unorthodox choices Roeg made stylistically, it just ends up coming off as a rather banal '70s supernatural thriller with little to no thrills. Maybe I'd glean more upon repeated viewings, as it seems a lot of others are able to, but I honestly don't see myself ever sitting down to watch this one again.

    Calm with Horses

    ★★★★

    Thoroughly impressed with this feature-length debut from director Nick Rowland. Calm with Horses is a well written crime drama with some damn fine performances from everyone involved, but especially from Cosmo Jarvis who plays the protagonist, Arm. This film strikes an interesting balance of both tension that leads to inevitable violence along with some genuinely touching moments that involve Arm, his ex, Ursula, and their autistic son, Jack, both of whom he's trying to provide for in the best way…
