Over the course of six decades (1910-1970), tens of thousands of Australian Aboriginal children were forcibly removed from their homes due to the assimilation policies that were in place at the time. These policies claimed that the lives of First Nations people would be improved if they became part of white society, and an effort

“Darkness Falls wasn’t much different from any old-fashioned town on the Atlantic Ocean from Nantucket to Key West. Except for one thing.” That one thing, of course, is Matilda Dixon, better known as the Tooth Fairy. Most horror fans likely recognize this in-your-mouth ghost from her 2003 big-screen vehicle, but what they might not realize

In the years since this column’s debut, ’90s horror movies have actually found a sizable and heartwarming amount of rediscovery and reappreciation. Physical media has resurrected and restored numerous films to the point where even derided efforts like my beloved I Still Know What You Did Last Summer can get a celebratory 4K upgrade. With

If you were hoping for some postlaunch content for RoboCop: Rogue City, you’ve got your wish. Developer Teyon has announced a new update that adds a New Game+ mode for Rogue City, alongside a new difficulty setting.

Some movies can be so iconic that they accidentally end up damaging their own genre in the long run.

Filmmaker Rose Glass has an audacious way of exploring obsession, pushing it to extremes in beguiling, genre-defying ways. Her feature debut, Saint Maud, centered on a nurse who took her religious fanaticism to extremes, compounded by an obsession with her latest patient. Glass’s sophomore effort, Love Lies Bleeding, wields obsession as a destructive coping mechanism for the pain that
