| - | | 2022-01-11 | Starship Troopers | 1997 | 6/5 | Paul Verhoeven makes a perfect distillation of American jingoism and glorification of war... It is basically the War on Terror in Space, given by clairvoyance years before reality. | | + | | 2025-10-05 | Nosferatu | 2024 | 4/5 | Orlok is back, with a mustache, same story of the original from 1922 but more didascalic and less visual; the theme of sacrifice and of the doomed monster well explained. Yet, you shan't easily such an evil vampire. Interestingly the movie almost feels in black-and-white even if it is in color. Probably to honor the original. | |
| - | | 2022-01-16 | Superuomini Superdonne Superbotte | 1974 | 4/5 | Italian comedy (Bud Spencer-like) meets kung-fu meets fantasy... What not to love? With slightly more budget and a better director it could be a classic. | | + | | 2025-10-08 | Metropolis | 1927 | 5/5 | At its core a revenge story, but with themes of propaganda, mass control and class warfare. Excellent even after a century. | |
| - | | 2022-01-23 | eXistenZ | 1999 | 3/5 | Weird and confusing existential and body horror movie. | | + | | 2025-10-10 | Le mille e una notte - Aladino e Sherazade | 2012 | 5/5 | A brilliant retell of the classic. Instead of several disjoint stories the insane lord is healed by its own very personal story. Romantic fantasy with lovable but relatable characters. | |
| - | | 2022-01-30 | The Warrior and The Sorceress | 1984 | 4/5 | David Carradine plays Kain a sour holy warrior in a fantasy remake of Yojimbo. | | + | | 2025-10-15 | Mr Vampire | 1985 | 4/5 | Set in a alternate world with clear supernatural rules and creatures a jiangshi goes amok. With help, and hindrance, from his two disciples a toist priest saves the day. | |
| - | | 2022-02-03 | The Masque of the Red Death | 1965 | 4/5 | People suffer, nobles party, the Red Death makes everyone equal. //...and the Red Death held illimitable dominion over all.// | | + | | 2015-10-21 | Paddington 2 | 2017 | 5/5 | Heartwarming child story about a anthropomorphized bear that find the best of everyone. //Ins't too idealistic? Shut up! We have to accept cynical to the extreme shows we can accept idealistic to the extreme too!// | |
| - | | 2022-02-12 | TerrorVision | 1986 | 5/5 | Cult comedy horror movie where a space monster comes via TV signals to eat a weird American family. I really enjoyed the intentional trash and the ending. | | + | |
| - | | 2022-04-25 | Tom & Jerry | 2021 | 3/5 | Jerry makes home in a gigantic hotel, Tom is hired to hunt it. Wanton chaos ensues. Really fun. | | + | |
| - | | 2022-04-25 | Tom and Jerry: Robin Hood and His Merry Mouse | 2012 | 4/5 | Another retell of the classic, with Tom and Jerry in it. Works unexpectedly well. | | + | |
| - | | 2022-09-15 | (Series) Extraordinary Attorney Woo | 2022 | 5/5 | Great legal drama/comedy, the overarching theme is that law and justice are different and each episode gives something to think or smile about. | | + | |
| - | | 2022-10-15 | (Series) Go Back | 2017 | 4/5 | A couple on the brink of divorce mysteriously go back in time when they first meet. In that weird but familiar setting understand what went wrong. | | + | |
| - | | 2022-10-31 | The Thing | 1982 | 6/5 | A parasitic alien being ate and replaces scientists in a isolated arctic base. Creepy and well done paranoia inducting horror movie. | | + | |
| - | | 2022-11-02 | Ivan Vasilievich: Back to the Future | 1973 | 5/5 | A really funny movie where an inventor by mistake brings Ivan the terrible in modern times and drops two friends in the past... | | + | |
| - | | 2022-11-12 | Falling for Christmas | 2022 | 3/5 | Funny Christmas movie with the usual themes of happiness in the simple thing. Nothing new, but enjoyable. | | + | |
| - | | 2022-11-12 | High School Ghosthustlers | 1995 | 2/5 | Ghostbusters + Japanese Highschoolers + mikos -> this movie. | | + | |
| - | | 2022-11-13 | Nosferatu - The First Vampire | 1922 | 3/5 | The oldest surviving <del>Dracula</del> Orlok movie. It is a silent black-and-white movie, still quite creepy. | | + | |
| - | | 2022-10-15 | The Lift | 1983 | 3/5 | The killer elevator movie. Kinda boring, but few points are really creepy. | | + | |
