True Crime Film 'Sound Of Freedom' Goes Viral, Exposing Child Trafficking

True Crime Film ‘Sound Of Freedom’ Goes Viral, Exposing Child Trafficking

There are things in this world far more horrifying than any slasher or creature feature you can dig up. Once in a while, I get to talk about movies that can help bring change. One of those is the new true story, true crime film Sound of Freedom, which premiered this week with little fan fair and little advertising and has now gone viral, bringing in over $11 million in its first week, with box office numbers now reaching over $40 million in its second week. In fact, it outdid Indiana Jones by a mile. Before we get into the movie’s details, here’s a statistic that should keep you up at night; according to the statistics more than 35 million people, including children, are trafficked yearly for sex, slavery and even organ harvesting. Sound of Freedom is bringing real attention to the crime that plagues every country in the world, including the US, where it is a billion-dollar-a-year industry. The

Blumhouse’s Hypnotic True Story Series “Look Into My Eyes” Premieres

Blumhouse’s new true story-inspired series “Look Into My Eyes,” like nothing you’ve ever seen, is now streaming on AMC+. The series explores the strange but true story of Dr. George Kenney, the former principal of North Port High School. After three students die under mysterious circumstances, a common link is identified – all were hypnotized by Dr. K. In reality, Dr. George Kenney fell from grace after serving ten years as a beloved principal at North Port High School in Florida, where he practiced hypnosis on over 70 students. In 2011, three students took their lives after seeing Kenney. When a local media story questioned his involvement and the possibility that he caused the deaths, the case went viral. In the end, Dr. Kenney pleaded no contest to two counts of practicing hypnosis without a license. He avoided jail time but did get one year of probation. Watch “Look Into My Eyes” today on AMC+ or Sundance.

Spoiler-Free Review: COYOTE (Romford Film Festival)  

Spoiler-Free Review: COYOTE (Romford Film Festival)  

U.K. science fiction thriller Coyote (2023) combines current social issues with lo-fi science fiction elements. The result is a film that boasts solid performances and thought-provoking themes. Partners Ekaterina (Therica Wilson-Read) and Anya (Borislava Stratieva) pay heavily to have one of them instantly transported using cutting-edge tech from Rasskazovo, where a violent crackdown on LGBTQ people is taking place, to a safe house in London for female immigrants. Orla Miller (Ailish Symons), the woman in charge of the safe house, is hospitable at first before she eventually informs Ekaterina that, as an immigrant, she stands to make money more quickly and in greater amounts if she provides sexual services to highly-placed men, which Ekaterina learns that the other women staying there are doing. Coyote is a lower-budget indie effort that wisely relies on minimal special effects, and the teleportation scenes are well done courtesy of Visual Effects Supervisor Howard Gardner. As with many good speculative fiction films, the focus is

A Virus Spreads In New Trailer For Apocalyptic Horror ‘End Times’

This July, watch the zombie apocalypse unfold in the indie film End Times, starring Scream Queen Jamie Bernadette (I Spit On Your Grave: Deja Vu, Sebastian) and Craig Stark (Once Upon A Time in Hollywood). Written and directed by Jim Towns (House of Bad, The Possession of Anne), End Times follows a pair of mismatched travelers, Claire and Freddie (Bernadette and Stark), as they try to escape a deadly pandemic that has turned Los Angeles into a zombie-infested wasteland. Claire is a privileged young suburbanite ill-equipped to survive in this hostile new landscape until she meets Freddie, a retired soldier who lost his daughter to the virus. As they travel together to reach the perimeter, Freddie teaches Claire the skills that will enable Claire to survive, and the uneasy partnership between the two grows into something more akin to a father/daughter relationship. Before they can reach safety, the two will have to escape brutal gangs, cannibals, cults, and the undead.”
