2024 - PG-13 - 6/10 - Solid Sequel

Beetlejuice Beetlejuice is an overstuffed, muddy mess of a film that I was entertained by from beginning to end. It definitely needs some editing and better focus on the main storyline. That said, I had a great time with this movie. Michael Keaton hasn’t lost a step in the 35 years since he last played this role. I loved all of the Tim Burton elements in this film, which felt like a return to form for him. Don’t overthink it and there is a good time to be had with this return to the land of the recently deceased.

2024 - R - 7/10 - Impressively Unnerving And Intense

From the team who brought you the underseen but great Caveat is another intense little film. Taking place in essentially one location, Oddity does a great job of introducing few characters and plot points but drawing every bit of intensity and anxiety possible from those elements. From the beginning, this movie puts you on the defense and starts cranking up the tension. Great filmmaking and a sense of foreboding around every corner make this a great slow burn horror thriller.
