Review: The Monkey (2025)

Image
Darkly funny and grimly gory, The Monkey  captures the weird whimsy of Stephen King's source material--a short story published in the anthology Skeleton Crew back in 1985. In the hands of Osgood Perkins (Son of Anthony, and therefore part of a horror dynasty), the first hour of this twisted tale speeds by, with the audience excitedly anticipating another monkey-related massacre. The kill scenes are played for laughs, but long-time horror heads will nod in appreciation at the lengths the movie goes to in order to make them as memorable as possible.  Unfortunately, The Monkey also captures something else that's an occasional hallmark of Stephen King's work, and that's third act problems. Many of King's stories have compelling premises that don't quite pay off in the final act, and that's the case here, too, even though Perkins has adapted the screenplay himself is largely working from his own palate by the film's conclusion. Adapting a short story into 9...

Review: The Substance (2024)

Image
Demi Moore earned her first Oscar nom for The Substance , and she deserves it. After all, she's a survivor of the Hollywood machine who delivers a brave and memorable performance. The film also serves as a showcase for Margaret Qualley, who blazes into courageous territory herself.  But at some point, this potent cautionary tale from French filmmaker Coralie Fargeat turns into a bizarre splatter fest (not unlike Peter Jackson's Braindead , aka Dead Alive ) that diminishes its message and dilutes its themes in a tidal wave of gore and blood that is so relentless that it becomes desensitizing and, dare I say, uninteresting. A film that started as a scalpel ends as a sledgehammer, bashing us over the head so aggressively that I went numb to it a good thirty minutes before it finally ended. If the goal was to create an endurance test, mission accomplished. There's value in that, at least in the short term. I appreciate and support the important things this movie has to say abou...
