Independent film can surprise you, especially horror films. Maybe low budget, maybe by new talent, maybe never picked up by a distributor. But that doesn’t mean they aren’t pretty fantastic films. Peter Szewczyk, the director of the 2021 film BEHEMOTH, worked with George Lucas credited with working on visual effects on AVATAR (2009) and HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS: PART 2 (2011), among other films.

To wrap up Pride month and the theme of lesbian arthouse films, we end with the highest profile of the four, AMMONITE (2020). Starring Kate Winslet and Saoirse Ronan, the film is based on two extremely important and real women in the field of paleontology.

For her latest subject is the aspiring model Maia (Ione Butler). At

Starting with old giallos from Europe to the hey day of the 1980’s, slashers have been a staple within the horror movie fanbase. With a few interesting slasher from 2021 including INITIATION, the subgenre has made somewhat of a comeback. The latest, STUDENT BODY, just came out on February 8th, 2022 wherever one can stream films.Jane (Montse
