If you’re like me you’ve been eagerly awaiting brilliant writer-director Robert Egger’s latest film, The Northman. Well, there’s good news, it’s now available on VOD. Starring Alexander Skarsgård, Ethan Hawke, Nicole Kidman, and Anya Taylor-Joy, the film follows young prince Amleth, whose father, the king (Hawke) is killed by his uncle and his throne stolen along with his mother. Amleth swears to avenge his father and save his mother. Hidden amongst a berserker tribe, he grows into a strong, fighter who kills like it’s an everyday mundane activity. After a raid, a vision sends him on a quest for revenge and he brings death to anyone who stands in his way. Entwined with the story are the old legends of the north, worship of gods Odin and Freyja, ceremonies, and sacrifice. Mystics trigger otherworldly visions as men crawl on all fours like dogs and Valcaries carry the fortunate off to Valhalla. From beginning to end, The Northman is simply stunning.

Tsoukalos, this season of the hit series examines formerly secret government reports about unexplained events around the country and the world, along with ancient relics believed to be of extraterrestrial origin. “From prehistoric stone monoliths and sacred temples to dragon gods and time travelers, this season explores ancient technology and timeless relics that span the globe and the galaxy. As the government shifts from denial of the existence of extraterrestrials’ presence on Earth to releasing their extensive — formerly secret — reports on unexplained phenomena, there is a growing belief that aliens may not be visitors from other planets, but perhaps creatures from our own future. Do these findings reveal alien origins or the origins of humanity? “Ancient Aliens: Season 15” lands on DVD on July 19, 2022, from Lionsgate.

Dawning Young Min Kim makes his feature film directorial debut — he also wrote the screenplay — with Dawning, a psychological horror outing heavy on family drama. Haejin Park (Kim Ellis) may have physically left her home after her father’s suicide (shown in the film’s opening scenes) for a new life in New York, but the trauma of that memory still weighs heavily on her. She goes back to the California farm where she grew up to console her younger sister Soojin (Veronica Kim), who has just split up with her abusive boyfriend. There, dark secrets are uncovered and supernatural overtones are introduced. Writer/director Kim shows a deft hand at the helm, serving up some twists and turns that raise the suspense while addressing the scars that PTSD and trauma can cause. Although the dialogue is a bit stiff at times, Dawning looks great, boasts fine performances from its two leads, and leaves viewers with much to think about. Kageboshi

David Cronenberg, known for his body horror, like in The Fly, has a new film coming out, Crimes of the Future which made its world premiere recently at Cannes. Some viewers just couldn’t handle it and walked out within the first five minutes, with more leaving the theater “during a particularly grotesque scene involving Léa Seydoux and an open wound.” IGN reports. But Cronenberg expected it would happen. “There are some very strong scenes,” explained Cronenberg. “I mean, I’m sure that we will have walkouts within the first five minutes of the movie. I’m sure of that. Some people who have seen the film have said that they think the last 20 minutes will be very hard on people and that there’ll be a lot of walkouts. Some guy said that he almost had a panic attack.” Starring Kristen Stewart, Viggo Mortensen, and Léa Seydoux, the film is set in the not-so-distant future where humankind is learning to adapt to
