GOOD LUCK, HAVE FUN, DON’T DIE

“Not since Everything Everywhere All At Once (2022) has there been such a bonkers movie with a nutty, in-your-face title. The result is either an instant cult film or the surprise hit of the season.” – Daniel M. Kimmel, North Shore Movies

“Welcome to the bleak but brilliant world of director Gore Verbinski’s Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die, the darkest – and funniest – end of the world satire since Stanley Kubrick taught the world to Stop Worry and Love the Bomb in Dr. Strangelove.“ – John Black, Cinekong

ACTS OF LOVE

“The film offers a challenging look at the space where religion and psychology meet, and where community verges on cult.” – Killian Melloy, Cinesaurus Rex

WHISTLE

“The kills are all unique and, thanks to Hardy’s visual style and cinematographer Björn Charpentier’s work, beautiful (cinematically speaking). Genre fans will appreciate their efforts to make gore gorgeous; others may be less impressed.” – John Black, Cinekong

PILLION

“Who is Ray? Where does he come from? What does he want? Writer-director Harry Lighton teases the answers, but lets this mold-breaking rom-com speak for itself.” – Killian Melloy, Cinesaurus Rex

 

JIMPA

“A story of complexities that encompass all the love, resentment, and heartache of family as well as the contradictions that make for human nature and the deep truths it’s only possible to share in part, even with those closest to us.” – Killian Melloy, Cinesaurus Rex
