DIRECTOR: JAKE SCHREIER/2025On the way home from Thunderbolts*, I had a realization: This is just a soap opera. Maybe it’s because my sister mentioned Sebastian Stan played a recurring role on Gossip Girl or maybe it’s because the post-credits scene revealed—don’t worry, not a spoiler!—a rift in a longstanding relationship we will explore in the future.

DIRECTOR: PAUL FEIG/2025Can something be deeply stupid if it knows it? The short story “Flowers for Algernon” suggests self-awareness of one’s intelligence requires some level of it to begin with, but it also operates on the belief those with intelligence will use it for self-advancement. Though decked out in lush floral arrangements Algernon would envy, Another Simple Favor undercuts that assumption, operating with sentience but with little aspiration.

Below is a smattering of capsule reviews of some of the finest short films that played 2025 Salem Horror Fest. The horror movie Festival ran from April 30 to May 4, 2025. Bloody Mary is a clever twist on an old curse, mixing in the familiar horror setup with a fresh conflict: you have to say the right words to end the Bloody Mary curse, but saying them wrong only makes things worse.

Directed by David F. SandbergStarring Ella Rubin, Odessa A’zion, Peter StormareReleased April 25th, 2025Rated RSomething that I like about the slasher horror movie sub-genre is that they usually feature a group of close friends that go through the ringer together. All of us would love to be a part of a tight-knit group of pals who would do anything for each other, right?

DIRECTOR: GAVIN O’CONNOR/2025It’s been nearly a decade since we were first introduced to The Accountant, and it’s been almost as long since he and his brother have made time for a family reunion. Then again, saying they’ve “made time” gives them too much credit. Though the events of 2016’s The Accountant brought Christian (Ben Affleck) and Braxton (Jon Bernthal) together for the first time as adults, they fell into the classic adult problem of not finding time to keep up with their relationships.
