BORDERLINE Review: A Twisted Thriller That Doesn't Quite Cut Deep Enough

1 month ago | nofspodcast.com | Kimberley Elizabeth

Borderline wants to be a chaotic thrill ride—a pulpy, twisted home-invasion thriller where a deranged stalker traps a pop star in his delusion of love. And in flashes, it gets there. But for a movie with such an unhinged premise, it feels strangely restrained, like it’s holding back when it should be cranking the tension up to eleven. The performances are solid, the setup is fun, and Penny (Alba Baptista) nearly steals the whole show, but Borderline never fully embraces the madness it promises.
THE MONKEY Review: Osgood Perkins’ Hilariously Twisted Horror Comedy is the Best King Adaptation in 40 Years

2 months ago | nofspodcast.com | Kimberley Elizabeth

You ever watch something so weird, so wildly unhinged, that you walk out of the theater grinning like a lunatic, half-convinced you just hallucinated the whole thing? That’s The Monkey—a gloriously deranged fever dream of cruel deaths, deep-seated childhood trauma, and cackling absurdity. Imagine Twin Peaks if it was directed by John Waters, but with a murderous toy monkey at its core.

When it comes to romance, vampires take “forever” very seriously. And so do we. Maybe it’s the immortality, the brooding, or the way they make neck-biting look way more seductive than it should. Whatever the reason, vampire horror romances have been making audiences swoon for decades, blending love with death, passion with peril, and desire with destruction.

Josh Ruben’s Heart Eyes (co-written by Phillip Murphy, Christopher Landon, and Michael Kennedy) is a Valentine’s Day romantic comedy turned slasher that aims for both lovey-dovey sweetness and blood-soaked holiday thrills. Starring Olivia Holt and Mason Gooding, it flutters between cutesy rom-com banter and heart-pounding chases with a doe-eyed killer—though the bumpy pacing and shallow character work keep it from becoming a new holiday staple.

HERETIC Review: An Mostly Underbaked Thriller That Crumbles Like Blueberry Pie

Nov 7, 2024 | nofspodcast.com | Kimberley Elizabeth

From the minds of Scott Beck and Bryan Woods, Heretic starts strong, cooking up a tension-filled thriller with a faith-based twist, but halfway through, the recipe seems to fall apart. The setup is solid, with a well-calibrated blend of tension and Hugh Grant’s unsettlingly disarming charm. But for all its ambition, the film bites off more than it’s willing to chew, delivering theological debates without the promised payoff.
