Movie Review: Smile (2022) Will Leave Horror Fans Grinning

One of the biggest horror films of the year, Smile, will soon land on 4K Ultra, Blu-ray and DVD. Many have described it as the best horror film of the year, but is it? The film centers on a psychologist who, after witnessing the suicide of a patient claiming to be hunted by an entity that shows itself as a loved one and stranger with a big grin, realizes she’s its next victim. Doctor Rose Cotter, played by Sosie Bacon, sets out to discover the entity’s origins, track its victims to find a survivor, and learn how to escape her fate. If you are a fan of gore, you’re going to like this one. And let me tell you, the scene where the entity is finally revealed is killer! This thing is nasty! Instead of showing the entity throughout the movie, writer-director Parker Finn went with the more impactful horrors, the tension built with subtle signals, the unnerving thought of

Film Review: Piggy (Lund Fantastic Film Festival)

Spanish chiller Piggy (Cerdita, 2022) is a terrific serial killer/coming-of-age/bullying and revenge mash-up that digs in deep on questions concerning doing what’s right, scapegoating, the dangers of a collective mindset, and more. Writer/director Carlota Pereda balances all of these aspects winningly and delivers a blood-soaked feature that leaves plenty to consider throughout the viewing experience and long after. Laura Galán portrays Sara, a plus-size teenager who helps out at her family’s struggling butcher shop. She is harassed by mean girls Maca (Claudia Salas) and Roci (Camille Aguilar), with the somewhat kinder Claudia (Irene Ferreiro) not participating but not doing anything to stop it, either. When the girls make fun of her at the community swimming pool — also joking about a man (Richard Holmes) who is also at the pool — and steal her clothes after nearly drowning her, it comes as little surprise that she doesn’t report to her parents or authorities after she sees the three girls being
