The Influencer Project Review: Disappointing Found Footage Horror Had Plenty Of Potential (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Found footage has been part of horror for decades, but even if there are examples of earlier films with a lasting legacy, such as 1980's Cannibal Holocaust, it feels like the genre is still living through the wave set off by The Blair Witch Project. The movie's style, subject matter, and even the way it was marketed to become an urban legend in itself, seem to have presaged the way found footage horror would take hold in the social media age. Now, a new entry in this lengthy canon, produced by s

In the last few years, however, he's transitioned to working behind the camera as well, first directing When You Finish Saving The World in 2022, followed by 2024's awards darling A Real Pain. The latter film, in particular, showed that Eisenberg was primed to be one of those actors-turned-directors who successfully evolves into
Babies Review: Seth Rogen’s Latest Struggles With Both Its Comedy And Drama [TIFF] (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Seth Rogen has pursued a wide range of projects across his career, and his recent performances in The Studio and The Invite prove his screen persona has changed a lot from the studio comedies that made him a leading man. Yet, Rogen still credits Judd Apatow, with whom he worked on several films, including The 40-Year-Old Virgin and Knocked Up, as being the key reason why his career is successful. It only makes sense, then, that Rogen would harken back to his roots at some point. By creating an a
