Send Help (2026) 93% EDIT “Send Help unleashes a surprise hit with unexpected depth, shocks, fourth wall breaks, and even a jump scare or two. ” – DarkSkyLady Reviews Jan 26, 2026 Full Review Primate (2025) 79% EDIT “Primate maintains a fierce pace, getting to the nitty-gritty gore quickly and keeping audiences in suspense for who will make it. ” – DarkSkyLady Reviews Jan 10, 2026 Full Review Influencers (2025) 96% EDIT “Influencers is bigger but not always better, as it lacks the realism present in the first film, choosing instead to increase the drama and forgo answering questions. ” – DarkSkyLady Reviews Dec 22, 2025 Full Review 13 Days Till Summer (2025) EDIT “13 Days Till Summer is a well-crafted, suspenseful, and creepy slasher. It adds surprises to home invasion, but also ensures it’s memorable thanks to that mask.” – DarkSkyLady Reviews Dec 10, 2025 Full Review The Curse (2025) EDIT “It’s a film I enjoyed watching. However, it’s not one I would ever feel the need to revisit. It might work better as a short film. The Curse is fun with scares, but viewers need to suspend their disbelief and then some. ” – DarkSkyLady Reviews Dec 10, 2025 Full Review Widow Champion (2025) EDIT “Widow Champion takes viewers on a journey through a country and culture many are unfamiliar with. ” – DarkSkyLady Reviews Dec 9, 2025 Full Review Incomplete Chairs (2025) EDIT “Incomplete Chairs is interchangeable with any other torture porn horror over the last couple of decades.” – DarkSkyLady Reviews Dec 9, 2025 Full Review Affection (2025) 93% EDIT “Affection is gripping, physically uncomfortable, and engrossing as it builds to its climax with a twist. ” – DarkSkyLady Reviews Dec 9, 2025 Full Review Wicked: For Good (2025) 66% EDIT “It’s still amazing with some captivating songs, breathtaking emotional beats, and outstanding performances all around. Wicked for Good ties everything together with tearful joy, even though it feels incomplete and rushed. ” – DarkSkyLady Reviews Nov 21, 2025 Full Review Predator: Badlands (2025) 86% EDIT “Predator: Badlands cements that Dan Trachtenberg knows what works for the series and for moviegoers, blending action-packed entertainment with a genuine human (or Predator) story.” – DarkSkyLady Reviews Nov 7, 2025 Full Review CAMP (2025) 94% EDIT “Camp is an exploration of trauma and its effects that's strange but struggles to grasp the viewer, and with an almost 2-hour runtime, that lack of memorability harms it. It's not bad, but not great either.” – DarkSkyLady Reviews Oct 18, 2025 Full Review Bone Lake (2024) 84% EDIT “Bone Lake is a fun, awkward slasher that feels like a lighthearted Speak No Evil or a less paranormal Crimson Peak. Shocks are plenty, but scares are in short supply. ” – DarkSkyLady Reviews Oct 3, 2025 Full Review One Battle After Another (2025) 94% EDIT “One Battle After Another has inescapable flaws—particularly in its depiction of Black women—but is also entertaining with immense performances across the board. ” – DarkSkyLady Reviews Sep 26, 2025 Full Review Coyotes (2025) 59% EDIT “Justin Long and Kate Bosworth are a hilarious duo; from dialogue to just the sounds they make, they know how to build up humor. Thanks to them, Coyotes has enough working in its favor to make it worthwhile. ” – DarkSkyLady Reviews Sep 21, 2025 Full Review Kiss of the Spider Woman (2025) 77% EDIT “Kiss of the Spider Woman is an unexpected delight, especially for those who typically do not enjoy musicals. It carries audiences on a whirlwind journey that sweeps them away along with Valentín.” – DarkSkyLady Reviews Sep 8, 2025 Full Review Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Infinity Castle (2025) 98% EDIT “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Infinity Castle is a stellar first entry for the trio of films, building excitement for what’s to come and anxiety for who might not survive. The animation is astounding, capturing a world of wonder and demons.” – DarkSkyLady Reviews Sep 2, 2025 Full Review Hell House LLC: Lineage (2025) 26% EDIT “Despite a promising start, Hell House LLC: Lineage squanders its horror goodwill, opting for a clunky, uncertain plot and abrupt ending that leaves viewers floundering in incredulity. ” – DarkSkyLady Reviews Sep 2, 2025 Full Review The Long Walk (2025) 88% EDIT “Terrifying in its premise and heart-wrenching in its execution, The Long Walk achieves a gripping story with dynamic characters. ” – DarkSkyLady Reviews Sep 2, 2025 Full Review Freakier Friday (2025) 73% EDIT “Freakier Friday leans into generational comedies and gains traction the longer it goes on, making it a wonderful sequel with never-ending chuckles. ” – DarkSkyLady Reviews Aug 18, 2025 Full Review Weapons (2025) 93% EDIT “Weapons builds and releases tension while keeping audiences wondering until the end. However, the reveal is less terrifying and more humorous. ” – DarkSkyLady Reviews Aug 8, 2025 Full Review The Fantastic Four: First Steps (2025) 86% EDIT “The Fantastic Four: First Steps tries to walk before it can crawl, dragging down a promising cast with a subpar screenplay. ” – DarkSkyLady Reviews Jul 27, 2025 Full Review I Know What You Did Last Summer (2025) 36% 3.5/5 EDIT “I Know What You Did Last Summer carves up laughs, jump scares, and some eerie deaths, even if its third act goes off the rails.” – Nerdist Jul 16, 2025 Full Review Superman (2025) 83% EDIT “Superman is a human story, with the emotional center that’s loads of fun, with a worthwhile message, and an adorable doggy. It’s a film I’d happily rewatch. ” – DarkSkyLady Reviews Jul 10, 2025 Full Review M3GAN 2.0 (2025) 57% EDIT “While it leans into some unbelievable twists—piling villain on villain—that's part of its charm. M3gan 2.0 does justice to its predecessor, ensuring it is a sequel worth watching.” – DarkSkyLady Reviews Jun 27, 2025 Full Review Bark (2023) 100% EDIT “The climax surprises with an unexpected answer. While the dialogue could sometimes be more compelling, Bark crafts a strained atmosphere with the bare minimum of two enigmatic leads and a lush forest backdrop.” – DarkSkyLady Reviews Jun 15, 2025 Full Review
