OBSESSION, the first feature film from breakout smash Milk and Serial writer/director Curry Barker is a cautionary tale that’s asks “what happens when the fantasy becomes real!?”

I've been waiting and waiting for Aislinn Clarke's follow up to her 2018 film The Devil's Doorway. Frewaka does not disappoint. It's a creepy Irish folk horror film that expands upon the themes from her first film.

Buffet Infinity plays like an old VHS tape, complete with ads, local weather reports, and news stories. It then morphs into cosmic horror. Check out our review as part of our #OverlookFilmFest coverage.

From @overlookfilmfest.bsky.social 2025, I offer a spoiler-free review of Brian Whitcomb & Bradford Thomason’s doc THE SPIRIT OF HALLOWEENTOWN.

It uses a 3-prong approach to explore the town and the influence of the Disney films shot there. Not all of which coalesces together. #OverlookFilmFest
Documentary “The Spirit of Halloweentown” seeks to investigate the relationship between the real St. Helens and its inhabitants separate from its cinematic connection. [The Overlook Film Festival]

Kiyoshi Kurosawa's Cloud has some scenes as unsettling as some of his classics like Pulse and Cure. It's also a genre-bending statement on class, but the pacing in the second half weighs it down a bit. Still enjoyed this one quite a bit!
