With Swarm, Janine Nabers and Donald Glover (both writers on Atlanta) have created a series so unconventional yet timely it’ll speak to an entire generation. It’s a story so surreal, you start to believe it’s real, and perhaps some of it even is. I found myself pausing certain episodes and Googling specific events, because I …

I Know What You Did Last Summer – Season 1 Spoiler Review | Amazon Prime Video
Lois Duncan’s classic novel was turned into two fan favourite slasher films in the late 90s (and a third straight-to-DVD sequel we don’t talk about). Amazon’s newly updated teen-sex & gorefest is nothing like those films. But what could’ve been an interesting take on the novel, turns into a frustratingly unfocused teen-drama that is anything …

Review – The Tomorrow War
I’m not gonna lie, I was ready to hate on this like there was no tomorrow. Chris Pratt has been “problematic” lately, so why would I waste my time watching him fight aliens for over two hours.

The dark comedy released through Netflix (depending on the country you’re in this could …
into:screens’ Top 20 films of 2020
2020 has been a serious ride filled with ups and downs. Cinema on its own had to deal with their own set of challenges as movie theatres all over the world were shut down and studios had to find a way to get their content to the public. Some succeeded, some seriously failed. But what …
Review – ‘The Craft: Legacy’
As with every reboot, sequel, remake, retelling of a cult classic story, ‘The Craft: Legacy’ bumped into a whole lot of protest when Amazon Prime released the first trailer of the SEQUEL to 1996’s ‘The Craft’. Just like its predecessor, a trio of witches are hoping to find their fourth member to complete their little …
