From The Director Of 'Se7en' And 'Fight Club' Comes 'The Killer'

From The Director Of ‘Se7en’ And ‘Fight Club’ Comes ‘The Killer’

From David Fincher, the brilliant filmmaker who brought you Se7en, Fight Club, and Zodiac, comes the intense action-thriller The Killer, a tale of an assassin who sets his sights on his employers after a mission goes wrong. Michael Fassbender reunites with fellow Snowpiercer star Tilda Swinton (Suspiria) in the film that also stars Charles Parnell, Arliss Howard, Kerry O’Malley, Sophie Charlotte, and Emilian Pernia. The Killer, described as a “brutal, bloody, and stylish noir,” centers on a solitary, cold, and ruthless killer who lurks in the shadows, awaiting his next victim. However, the longer he waits, the more he begins to believe he’s losing his sanity. Fincher directs from the script penned by Andrew Kevin Walker based on the graphic novel “The Killer” written by Alexis Nolent and illustrated by Luc Jacamon. The Killer follows Fincher’s hit series, “House of Cards” and “Mindhunter,” which both premiered on Netflix. The movie makes its Netflix debut on November 10, 2023. Check out

Movie Review: 'There's Something Wrong With The Children' And The Movie

Movie Review: ‘There’s Something Wrong With The Children’ And The Movie

Back in March director Roxanne Benjamin’s horror film There’s Something Wrong with the Children was released on multiple streaming platforms. While scrolling through Prime Video last night the film caught my attention. So I decided to check it out. In the film, When Margaret (Wainwright) and Ben (Gilford) take a weekend trip with longtime friends Ellie (Crew) and Thomas (Santos) and their two young children (Guiza and Mattle), Ben begins to suspect something supernatural is occurring when the kids behave strangely after disappearing into the woods overnight. The film started out good, with an interesting story. However, that wouldn’t last. In a time when we desperately need new stories and strong characters, we get dumb characters who constantly make dumb decisions. Let’s start with the two main characters, Margaret (Alisha Wainwright) and Ben (Zach Gilford). Gillard gives a nice performance and a character the viewers can find empathy with. He’s struggling with mental health issues (aren’t we all), so when

HBO has just announced their upcoming original three-part true-crime docuseries “Murder in Boston: Roots, Rampage, and Reckoning,” which tells of a murder that fueled racial unrest and mistreatment of people in the community.
