Tenured (2015)
Low-Key Radically Honest
Hilarious deadpan, like "Stranger than Fiction" level good-I have to disagree with the negative reviews. Flat delivery and the dialed down production value let this hidden gem really be all about the story. And the story is a well-crafted slow-burn, a believable and relatable confession fully realized. The cheerleader bit. "It's just pain," with the blue rope of friendship. It's just the very best kind of stuff there is. See for yourself.
The Field Guide to Evil (2018)
Tasteful and Original
Cute concept (world folklore anthology); well executed.
This was much more subtle than a lot of mainstream horror which I think will subvert some watchers expectations, either positively or negatively.
I found the opening short examining the socio-religious stigmas surrounding homosexuality to be artful and insightful with a positive empowering message that wasn't crass or overstated.
At least one short examined elder care through the lens of witchcraft. The last short was a delightful dark comedy--Grimm meets Aesop.
It was cool to see something new in horror under the guise of being old.
