15 Films to See in August
The month ahead appears to offer far more cinematic highlights than the typical August, though you'll have to venture beyond your local cineplex to catch most of them. True, the surprisingly good horror sequel Annabelle: Creation and Steven Soderbergh's return to filmmaking with Logan Lucky will screen in wide release. But it is this month's indies that really shine, including features like the Black Mirror-esque Marjorie Prime, festival hits like Good Time, Beach Rats and Patti Cake$, and the year's highest-scoring film to date.
With good early reviews, this origin story for the creepy doll introduced in The Conjuring looks to be an improvement on its predecessor, Annabelle, in every way. Directed by David F. Sandberg (Lights Out), the film chronicles the strange happenings at the home of a doll maker (Anthony LaPaglia) and his wife (Miranda Otto) whose possessed creation preys on the orphans they have invited into their home.
