“Silencio…”Welcome to Mulholland Drive, the cinematic equivalent of wandering into a dream where everyone knows the script except you, and the moment you think you’ve figured it out… the film turns around, stares directly into your soul, and whispers “This is the girl.”David Lynch’s magnum opus is less a film and more a dark ritual, an intoxicating descent through the glittering gutters of Hollywood, where dreams curdle into nightmares and the line between fantasy and reality warp.

From The Raid director Gareth Evans comes Havoc, a brutal, chaotic juggernaut of a film that crashes through your senses like a wrecking ball. Sure, the plot is barely there to support the outrageous carnage. But oh boy, does Evans deliver on the visceral thrills. At the rotten, blood-pumping heart of Havoc is one of the most insane nightclub fights/shootouts ever committed to screen. A prolonged, jaw-dropping symphony of shattered glass, bone-crunching hits, and ballistic fury.
