When The Light Breaks is a film that came and went in the festival season, says Carsten, but never got a theatrical release here. More’s the shame — it’s a lovely, sad, and gorgeous work that really shines on the big screen:

What a pleasure to watch a masterfully crafted thriller, says Carsten, one that feels like the product of another era when these kinds of movies appeared regularly at the multiplex. His review of Crime 101:

Father Mother Sister Brother gets better as it goes along, with playful recurring jokes and expressions reminding us of a certain artificiality as well as Jim Jarmusch’s sharp, self-referential wit. Carsten's review:

Carsten wished "Wuthering Heights" was more transgressive, but there’s still a lot to appreciate in what the actors bring. It’s Jacob Elordi who is the MVP — he’s got a deadly, looming presence:

Crime 101 is a movie with an extended running time that genuinely flies by, never losing a beat in its pacing or plotting. Truly worth seeing, says Carsten:

"Wuthering Heights" is a full on epic romance, says Carsten, a bodice ripper, with gorgeous, gothic notes in the set design serving the relentless, self-destructive love affair:

28 Years Later: The Bone Temple is better than the last, says Carsten, taking the story away from the too-familiar alleys of zombietown to something even darker, a bleak vision of monstrousness in humanity:

Writer-director Joe Carnahan is an old hand at b-movie suspense, and with The Rip he delivers in spades. Carsten says the script also comes through with a terrific third act twist:

In comparison to 28 Years Later, Carsten says The Bone Temple feels a step in line with what writer Alex Garland does best, with a real dollop of humour to help the horror go down easier:
