47 Meters Down: Uncaged

The depths of hell are not fiery, but wet and 47 meters below the surface. In Mexico, high school sisters Mia (Sophie Nélisse) and Sasha (Corinne Foxx) co-exist with Mia’s ocean-dwelling archaeologist father (John Garrett) and Sasha’s less adventurous mother (Nia Long). Sasha’s popular, Mia’s not, and the two don’t click yet. Seeing an opportunity […]

Crawl (2019)

Florida man, inspired by Ant-Man, tries to control alligators with grisly results. The state of Florida is known for a few things; citrus and cyclones are certainly in the top 5.

[…]

Us (2019)

Be afraid of what peers back in that mirror. Over thirty years ago in Santa Cruz, Adelaide Wilson (Lupita Nyong’o) experienced a traumatic event that she’s never quite been able to shake completely.

Greta

Everything has an end, even companionship. Frances McCullen (Chloë Grace Moretz) is still reeling after the recent loss of her mother.
