Velvet Buzzsaw

2019
8
Director: 
Dan Gilroy

SYNOPSIS: 

After the discovery of some paintings by an unknown artist, a supernatural force enacts atrocious revenge on those who have allowed their greed to somehow hinder art.

REVIEW: 

Netflix product halfway between comedy and splatter... Horror satire on the world of contemporary art, I would say a "unique piece" in the panorama of the subgenre, set between the walls of luxurious American galleries. The atmosphere goes from a gloomy purple to a sunny heat, it feels like being on a carousel that goes up and down between laughter and fear. Jake Gyllenhaal always excellent, he perfectly embodies the role of a cynical and mellifluous art critic like never before.
Certainly one of the best films on the Netflix platform and it's a real shame not to have been able to see it in theaters when it came out because it's visually very beautiful and with a great cast.

They Live

1988

They Live by John Carpenter is not just a science fiction film; it is a fierce and still relevant gut punch against rampant consumerism and media manipulation. Carpenter, with his mastery of genre blending, gives us a film that, despite being from 1988, resonates with a disarming power even today. The film's strength lies in its brilliant simplicity: an unemployed worker, John Nada (played with rugged charisma by wrestler Roddy Piper), discovers a pair of special sunglasses that reveal the hidden reality. The world, seen through those lenses, turns into an unsettling black... Read More

Vicious

2025

Vicious is a psychological horror that relies on emotional tension and the fear of the unknown. As a woman, I found it particularly compelling how the film explores vulnerability within the home—supposedly the safest place we know. The protagonist embodies the growing terror of someone trapped not only inside her house but inside her own emotional weaknesses. The film builds an unsettling atmosphere from the very beginning, balancing heavy silence with bursts of panic. Some narrative choices feel deliberately slow, creating tension that can sometimes be frustrating, yet... Read More
