Coyotes — Fantastic Fest Review
Colin Minihan’s latest feature Coyotes delivers exactly what its title promises. This horror-comedy follows a wealthy family in the Hollywood Hills as they struggle to survive a relentless attack by a ravenous pack of coyotes. The story unfolds over the course of one harrowing night, made even more chaotic by a severe thunderstorm that topples trees, knocks out power, and cuts the family off from help just as the carnage begins.
The Curse — Fantastic Fest Review
The Curse feels like a nostalgic trip back to the techno-horror films of the early aughts, calling to mind eerie classics like The Ring and Pulse, but with a distinctly modern twist. Instead of cursed videotapes or haunted websites, the threat here seeps through the familiar feeds of social media, making the film feel both unsettling and eerily relevant.
The Piano Accident — Fantastic Fest Review
Quentin Dupieux’s irreverent, brash sense of humor is almost certainly an acquired taste. Known for his offbeat and audacious storytelling, Dupieux has carved out a niche for himself in the world of absurdist cinema. But his quirky style may not be for everyone. With The Piano Accident, he turns his surrealist lens toward social media and influencer culture, providing the perfect opportunity for satire.
The Ice Tower — Fantastic Fest Review
It’s fitting that a movie titled The Ice Tower moves at such a glacial pace. That’s not necessarily a flaw, but it will likely test the patience of many moviegoers. Marion Cotillard is a commanding presence in Lucile Hadžihalilović’s film.
