PRACTICAL MAGIC 4K UHD: More Magical Treasures with Special Features

Thu, 10 Sep 2026 11:02:11 -0500

Directed by Griffin Dunne, and written by Robin Swicord, Akiva Goldsman, and Adam Brooks, the film is based on the bestselling novel written by Alice Hoffman. The book was published in 1995. Practical Magic is full of many wonderful witchcraft wonders in 4K UHD. Sisters and family curses have meaning, which is why it’s essential to revisit this movie before the release of Practical Magic 2, which opens in cinemas on September 11. Audiences are in for a treat of nostalgia with the 4K UHD edition of the 1998 classic. I appreciate the previous bonus features on the 4K UHD because they take viewers back in time. There is a sense of how the sisterhood came together in the special bonus feature titled Casting the...

ONCE UPON A TIME IN HARLEM: New Trailer and Poster

Thu, 03 Sep 2026 12:00:12 -0500

Proudly touting its distinction as "the only film this year to screen at Sundance, Cannes, Telluride, TIFF, NYFF and London," Neon has unveiled a new trailer and poster for Once Upon a Time in Harlem. Conceived and filmed by William Greaves, a Black actor who became disgruntled with the roles that were available for him to portray in the film industry in the late 40s and early 50s, moved to Canada, received training at the National Film Board of Canada -- yay Canada! -- and became a documentary director, coming to wide notice with 1968's Symbiopsychotaxiplasm (see our own Jim Tudor's review), Once Upon a Time in Harlem is a truly unique film. The official verbiage explains why: "A decade after his death, genre-defying filmmaker...

FORTITUDE Trailer Premiere: The WWII Story That Was so Crazy, It's True

Wed, 02 Sep 2026 11:00:00 -0500

If you know your World War II history you will know about Operation Fortitude and the deception plan to convince Germany that the Allied invasion was going to happen in one place in France when it was really going to happen at Normandy. The Allies did this through the use of fake equipment, false radio traffic and false information fed through double agents. This new movie from director Simon West, is the dramatization of that remarkable story. The director is backed up by a heck of a cast as well. Fortitude stars Matthew Goode, Ed Skrein, Jordi Mollà, Alice Eve, Art Malik, Lukas Haas, Adrian Topol, Emilio Sakraya, Maeve Courtier-Lilley, Paul Anderson, with Ben Kingsley, with Michael Sheen and Nicolas Cage.

Vlissingen 2026: FILM BY THE SEA Recommendations

Sun, 30 Aug 2026 09:00:08 -0500

On Friday the 11th of September, Vlissingen's Film by the Sea festival starts. It's the 28th edition this year, and it has become one of the largest and most glamorous festivals in the Netherlands. Last year saw over 45 thousand tickets sold, and the average audience rating for the films was a whopping 4.2 out of 5. The increase in ticket sales has been considerable each year, so will the festival hit 50K in 2026? We'll see! It's quite an achievement for a festival which is, geographically, a bit out-of-the-way for most people. Utrecht, Amsterdam, Rotterdam and Leiden are all within an hour's travel of each other, but Vlissingen (or Flushing) is in Old Zeeland, in the South-West, part of a group of islands and...

The official teaser was released today, and at the very end, when Abigail submerges her head under water in a tub, we hear a baby crying.

NY's MUSCLEFEST: Part Film Festival, Part Celebration of Underground Trans and Queer Cinema

Thu, 27 Aug 2026 13:02:01 -0500

Running September 3-6, Muscle Distribution and the Roxy Cinema present MuscleFest, a four-night mini-festival celebrating the distributor's deep-cut restorations, alongside a fearless slate of underground trans and queer cinema. I discovered Muscle Distribution last year at Fantastic Fest with their restoration of Dildo Heaven, the charming "Nudie Cutie" from octogenarian filmmaker and "Queen of Sexploitation" Doris Wishman. Working at a sex shop in Miami in the early '90s, Wishman directed the delightfully shameless, all-top-no-bottoms romp while she was in her late 80s. The completed film premiered at the New York Underground Film Festival just months before her death from lymphoma, before being released posthumously on video in 2002--and, like so many of the films Muscle champions, largely disappearing from the conversation. What really sold me...

Breda 2026: Prepare For Pests, Poop And Performances

Tue, 25 Aug 2026 18:00:06 -0500

In the Netherlands, the film festival season is upon us. Every few weeks there will be another big film festival, and kicking off the pack this coming weekend is Breda's B-Film, Underground and Trash Film Festival, known as BUT for short. Running from the 26th till the 30th of August, expect Breda to be the center of questionable (but nonetheless great) taste. This year, the festival's main theme is, as the festival poster above attests, "Simply the Pest". And that means a number of great films new and old will be shown about waves of icky animals. Expect classics like Ticks, Slither, Cronenberg's The Fly, Night of the Creeps, Slugs and Bruno Mattei's completely bonkers Rats: Night of Terror. Thursday will be "Toilet Thursday" with...

The Danish horror anthology, Adorbable Humans, a modern-set but darker take on four tales from Hans Christian Andersen, will be available worldwide on a streaming platform near you (We think? We hope!). The four tales are directed by Danish directors Anders Jon, Michael Kunov, Kasper Juhl and Michael Panduro.
