Film Review: “She Dies Tomorrow” Is a Creative, Fresh, and Relevant Take on a Culture of Fear

Impetigore (“Perempuan Tanah Jahanam”) (Joko Anwar, 2019) 3 out of 4 stars. As a film that is premiering in the U.S. on Shudder, Impetigore is a unique film that chooses an intimate setting to display its horror. Going against the mainstream flow of having monstrous or supernatural elements, the film takes its time to introduce […]
