Renfield! I loved it. It was a nice silly distraction from, y'know life. If you like horror comedies, like Cabin in the Woods or Tucker and Dale Vrs Evil I can't recommend Renfield enough.

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, pretty good movie in the Harry Potter universe without all the school of magic theme.
Love this movie and all it's quirks.
The Little Mermaid (2023). It was mediocre. My main issue is its pacing -- it moved slooooooowly. Almost all of the underwater scenes were rather dark, as well, which took away some of the whimsy (I guess? Not sure what word is right here). Still, the pacing was the main negative.
Gravity. Meh...
It grinds my gears that the sole idea to create tension is the presence of stray ropes. And slinging objects. ๐ฅฑ
Saw a movie at the museum about some projects Jane Goodell knows of that keeps her optimistic about the state of the world and the ecosystem. Really uplifting and motivating, made me want to start volunteering and trying to make a difference
Nefarious.
It was definitely a nice twist on your typical demonic possession film, but I expect given that it's basically an hour and a half of two men talking it wouldn't go down well with your typical horror audience.
Could have done with a bit more mystery and a bit less telegraphing what was going to happen, but it was still an enjoyable time and the lead actor was great.
Recommend for anyone who likes their horror to lean closer to psychological thriller territory than the low-effort "just fill it full of screech noises and jump scares" fare.
