Screamfest Review: “Big Baby”
By Billy Ray Brewton
October 14, 2025
Big Baby (Spider One, 2025) 3 out of 5 stars As a writer myself, I am always interested in and drawn to films about the process, as it were: the use of imagination to create ideas and the ability to take those ideas and turn them into a cohesive, engaging, and authentic story. Lots of films have tackled this over the years, with varying levels of success. On the high end, you have something like Adaptation, the Spike Jonze masterpiece from ... >>

New/Next Review: “OBEX”
By Christopher Llewellyn Reed
October 5, 2025
OBEX (Albert Birney, 2025) 4 out of 5 stars The films of director Albert Birney—be they of the live action variety (Strawberry Mansion) or animated (Tux and Fanny)—are always loving tributes to the meticulous process of artistic creation. Each shot within each scene is composed with great consideration, the visual components beautifully coming together while also advancing the story. Such is very much the case with his latest, OBEX, in which ... >>
Heartfelt Spirit Elevates “Good Boy”
By Adam Vaughn
October 3, 2025
Good Boy (Ben Leonberg, 2025) 3 out of 5 stars October launches with a unique horror film centered around one of the most original and adorable lead characters of the genre: a dog! Good Boy (not to be confused with the TIFF 2025-premiering Good Boy reviewed recently by FFT Editor Chris Reed) follows Indy (playing himself), a loving pup who follows human Todd (Shane Jensen) to his grandfather’s secluded—and somewhat ... >>
Marc Maron Moves Forward in “Are We Good?”
By George W. Campbell
October 2, 2025
Are We Good? (Steven Feinartz, 2025) 3½ out of 5 stars In the world of modern comedy, few folks have carved out a niche like Marc Maron. Over the last three decades, he’s built a reputation for being an irascible curmudgeon with good taste. It may seem rude, at first, but after enough time listening to him, you realize it’s all just a form of anxiety. The kind that’s kept people at a distance for years. However, Maron’s willing to make an ... >>
