Rating: 4 cats
Director: Noah Buschel
Starring: Jane Alexander | Kevin Corrigan | Marin Ireland | Odessa Young | Sam Waterston | William Jackson Harper

The Man in the Woods

Michael says: “While not quite as accomplished as THE VAST OF NIGHT, this nostalgia-focused thriller set in 1963 hits some similar marks, and surprised me at its cleverness and strong writing, after a slightly awkward start. The budget is clearly

Rating: 3.8 cats
Director: Kevin McManus | Matthew McManus
Starring: Alex Maizus | Brandon Waltz | Charles Kwame Odei | Dylan Hartigan | Jordan Puzzo | Kevin Corrigan

Rating: 4.75 cats
Director: Jack Perez
Starring: Ariel Gade | Barry Bostwick | Eric Price | Karen Black | Kevin Corrigan | Leo Fitzpatrick | Lucy Davis

Some Guy Who Kills People

Jason says: “Funnything about the festival circuit; a movie can be there for a while – I missed seeing this at Montreal’s Fantasia Festival last July, catching THE INNKEEPERS instead.  I don’t regret seeing that at all, but I was

Director: Bob Byington
Starring: Alex Karpovsky | Justin Rice | Kevin Corrigan | Kristen Tucker | Pat Healy

Harmony and Me

Diane says: “Caught this at International Film Festival of Boston. A very funny, rambling story of one guy’s heartbreak, and the response of those around him. (Could he be compared to the Job of A SERIOUS MAN?) Justin Rice is
