Last year, we covered much of 2022's Sundance virtually, and 2023 marked the first year since 2019 where things returned to Park City in full swing! Though unable to attend in person, Allison and I managed to see a few gems that we both really enjoyed. Check out our full coverage for the fest after … Continue reading Sundance 2023 Wrap-Up

★★★★ (Written by Allison Brown) Fans of Syfy’s The Magicians rejoice! Olivia Taylor Dudley is back in something equally mystical and devilish: Onyx the Fortuitous and the Talisman of Souls!

Sundance 2023: When It Melts
★★★★ (Written by Allison Brown) Be forewarned: When It Melts is not a light watch. It is one of the most disturbing and numbing dramas I have seen in ages.

AIF 2022: Unicorn Wars
★★★★ For some reason, Unicorn Wars has evaded me several times, despite screening at various different festivals that I was covering. Finally, I was able to check out this animated gem for the Animation is Film Festival! Effortlessly epitomizing everything I loved about gleefully demented cartoon Happy Tree Friends, this Spanish feature crams in more … Continue reading AIF 2022: Unicorn Wars
AIF 2022: Summer Ghost
★★★★ How exactly did a fourty-minute long Japanese animated film about ghosts have me crying by the end? I can safely say that Summer Ghost was not what I expected, but in the best way possible. It details the friendship between three strangers potentially brought together by fate in incredibly vidid detail. Each character is … Continue reading AIF 2022: Summer Ghost
