    Dark Nuns
    Dark Nuns doesn't reinvent the wheel. If you're seeking out an exorcism film that's going to shock you and be vastly different from what you've seen before, you're going to be disappointed. But what Dark Nuns does have are two central characters of the like that we don't often see.

    Lilly
    Lilly becomes a chiseled-down Wikipedia summary version of a life, dipping in here and there to show you the big moments, but in the process, characterization and emotion are stripped away.

    Trust
    Trust does a great job of showing what Turner is capable of. The problem is everything around her. Pardon the pun, but it takes an interesting premise and doesn't trust itself to craft a compelling story with interesting characters around it.

    Code 3
    Rainn Wilson gives one of his best performances in this compelling action comedy.

    Traumatika
    A short runtime kills any character development and tension.

    Coyotes
    Killer coyotes aren't all that scary, and the comedy of the supporting characters feels forced and overly written. Kudos to the crew for coming up with a premise and refusing to send it off the rails into fantastical absurdism. Still, just because you keep the plot grounded doesn't mean that there is enough to keep up the tension.

    The Pout-Pout Fish
    The Pout-Pout Fish is not bad by any means, but don't go in expecting a new animated classic. Little kids will probably enjoy it for the innocent, lesson-filled, mild fun it is, especially if they've been introduced to what inspired it first. There's nothing wrong with that. It's what The Pout-Pout Fish aims for, and it achieves the goal.

    R.L. Stine's Pumpkinhead
    There is fun to be had here, but it's spread too thin in a movie where even 90 minutes is too long.

    Long Shadows
    It's flat characters on an unfinished stage, rehearsing a bad script, with no weight behind any of the odd choices and filming techniques. It wants to be a movie, but it doesn't know how. Just stay on your horse and ride past this one.

    Trap House
    Trap House is a fun enough time worth watching, but it traps its star and doesn't let him out.

    Wardriver
    Wardriver feels familiar. It's Dane DeHaan that makes it worth investing in. If only they had gone deeper, Wardriver could have lifted itself past expectations into something more compelling.
