  • ‎‘The Shrouds’ review by Jarrod Jones • Letterboxd

    2 weeks ago | letterboxd.com | Jarrod Jones |David Cronenberg

    ★★★ instances of mournful grace interspersed with some of the most goofball bloviations I've heard from Cronenberg yet; a labyrinth of grief and paranoia navigated by the starship Tesla; the director's fascination with the disintegrating body and finding a way to get horny about it — the hallmarks of his work are present, stitched together by the slightest threads, which forms a loose patchwork that allows much of this to fray out into full-on absurdism (your mileage may vary about whether...

  • Naomi Watts Grapples with a Great Dane and Greater Grief in The Friend

  • ‎‘Raising Cain’ review by Jarrod Jones • Letterboxd

    Jan 31, 2025 | letterboxd.com | Jarrod Jones

    ★★★½ gonzo, disorienting, maddening, and never boring, despite ostensibly being the feature-length version of the ending to Psycho.

two new reviews over at DoomRocket: Albert Birney's OBEX, easily my favorite film from this year's @CriticsFf, and Tallulah Hazekamp Schwab's MR. K, two oddball films about finding strength through adversity that I recommend mightily https://t.co/AsHsJ7QxZj https://t.co/lwBTiKUq5P
