Beau is Afraid

The Nomads of Fantasy ·

2025/03/16

Beau Is Afraid is not a movie that wants to be understood in a traditional sense—it’s designed to be an overwhelming, anxiety-ridden odyssey where meaning is entirely subjective. Ari Aster crafts a surreal, often nightmarish world that feels both deeply personal and universally unsettling. The film taps into the psyche of its audience, mirroring their own fears, relationships, and insecurities, particularly surrounding themes of guilt, maternal control, and existential dread. Whether you see it as a

Kill (2023)

The Nomads of Fantasy ·

2025/02/10

"Kill" is a relentless action thriller that stands out as one of India's most intense and exhilarating films. With its high-octane fight sequences, brutal choreography, and a gripping narrative set aboard a speeding train, the movie delivers a cinematic experience that rivals the best of Hollywood’s action genre. It skillfully blends martial arts with raw, visceral combat, making every scene pulse with adrenaline. Unlike traditional Bollywood films that often incorporate song-and-dance

RoboCop (1987)

The Nomads of Fantasy ·

2025/01/30

RoboCop (1987) is often remembered for its explosive action and ultra-violent sequences, but what truly sets it apart as a great film that has aged remarkably well is its biting social commentary and immersive world-building. Paul Verhoeven’s dystopian vision of Detroit—a crumbling city overrun by crime, economic decay, and corporate overreach—feels eerily prescient. At its core, RoboCop is not just about a cybernetic law enforcer taking down criminals; it's a reflection of America’s descent

As we wrap up our "Year of Bruce" with special guest Richard Liverman, it's time to spotlight Die Hard 2, a film that often stands in the shadow of its predecessor but deserves its own moment in the Christmas-action spotlight. While the original Die Hard has cemented its place as the go-to holiday action movie, its sequel doubles down on everything that made the first one great.
