SCREAM 7 Review: A Maximalist Nightmare

Scream 7 is a cynical, maximalist nightmare that sullies one of the most dependable horror franchises in history. Sid, Gale, The Core 4, the fans, and especially Melissa Barrera deserved better.

APPOFENIACS Review | Fantastic Fest 2025

There's very little new to say so far as warnings about A.I. and deepfakes are concerned, but Chris Marrs Piliero’s Appofeniacs isn't too worried about saying anything new so far as it's highlighting an ongoing problem with the technology in both spectacular and absurd fashion.

COYOTES Review | Fantastic Fest 2025

Though Coyotes doesn't bother itself with highlighting the nonsensical fears of the city in which it's placed, it does tell its story through the kind of absurdist lens that feels like it's mocking said fear anyway.
