Sick 2022
A straightforward and mean slasher/home invasion horror. Although it doesn't reinvent the wheel and I thought the COVID stuff was too lame and didn't really play well, especially coming from the writer of the Scream franchise. this is still an undeniably fun film. And a very tight one. I love how brutal some of the kills are and I also appreciate that it contains fewer stupid decisions compared to any home invasion flick out there.

M3GAN 2022
A fun cheesy watch. This comedy horror drama feels like a January release, playing it too safe and polished, and definitely suffers from its PG rating. It's a lot more comical than what you'd expect, I didn't see the trailer before going in, yet somehow I wish it went further with the campiness. Thankfully, the concept is fun enough and it also features an unexpectedly strong emotional core.

Flat, boring, unengaging. I waited over a year for this and was disappointed. This is another case where a film with a unique concept never managed to grow into something bigger. It's like taking a good short film and stretch it out needlessly. The experience of going through 'spooky' internet videos and playing it constantly evoke a good sense of discomfort, but it can't quite make for a compelling narrative. The story may be relatable to some audience but it's clear I'm not part of those audience.

I found the choice of non-linear storytelling to be very strange as it's mostly ineffective when applied to the subgenre.…
