Hold The Phone, Ponce de León


The Woman In The Yard
Blumhouse Productions (2025)
The reviews that I've seen for The Woman In The Yard have been pretty brutal, but I didn't think it was bad.  It's probably not going to end up in any of my favorites lists, and I will agree that the trailer looked better than the film ended up being, but I found it to be a decent psychological horror flick overall.  I tend to struggle with movies that have a lot of dream and hallucination scenes where the viewer is left to question what is real and what is in the mind of the characters, but it's not something that they could have changed and kept the story intact.


Death Of A Unicorn
A24 (2025)
I've grown tired of the "horror comedy" sub-genre and think it's long past due for horror films to just be horror films, but I still had fun watching this.  It felt like parts of it were inspired by Ready Or Not and the Jurassic World trilogy, which is definitely not two things that I thought I'd be comparing Death Of A Unicorn to when I saw the trailer.  If you don't go into this expecting it to be a serious horror flick, you have a pretty good chance of enjoying this.
