UMMA
The great Sandra Oh stars in the horror movie, telling the story of a mother and daughter living in happy isolation, until the cremated remains of a family member arrives, unleashing a demonic spirit upon them both.
THE WORST PERSON IN THE WORLD
As we said in our review, this is the first five-star movie of 2022. A fantastically funny drama about how coming-of-age can happen at pretty much any point in your life, and you’re never too old to learn how to grow up.
THE CELLAR
24 and The Girl Next Door star Elisha Cuthbert headlines this Irish horror about a family that move into a new home, only for the daughter to seemingly vanish in the cellar during their very first night there. As they try to find the missing girl, the parents discover that their new home has a very dark past…
