Sibling rivalries are as ancient as Cain and Abel. Cinema has seen so many stories where two brothers go against each other, where one is supposedly the bad brother and the other is the good. Recently, there has been a spin on this good vs. bad narrative. What if both brothers are bad and they go against each other? Budak Flat is essentially the story of two brothers, but the main character is the building where the two brothers live, hence the title Budak Flat. The film has allegedly been co-directed by four directors, but there is a unity to the jumpy nature of the film, and it doesn’t feel like multiple visions have tried to jumble up the film. The fidgety camera work, evoking the magic from the film La Haine, helps tell this bloody story in a gripping manner.

2022's "Scream 5" reinvigorated the horror franchise, which seemed to have ended with "Scream 4" in 2011. It was no small task, especially considering its legendary original director, Wes Craven, died in 2015. Its new directors, Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett - the duo behind production company Radio Silence who made "Ready or Not" in 2019 - have openly expressed their love and loyalty to the Scream franchise, so while the new Scream films do explore new aspects of the horror genre to fit the 21st century, you can be sure they still have plenty of connections to the original films that fans will recognize almost immediately.
Are the New Scream Movies a Sequel Series, or a Reboot Series?
Officially, 2022's "Scream" wasn't titled "Scream 5," but "Scream," making it a little unclear if it was a reboot. But 2023's new movie is "Scream 6," making it even more obvious that this is...

Scream rewired the horror audience in 1996, exploring anew the connective tissue that bridged the history of the genre with its future patrons and purveyors. The resulting franchise encompassed a host of familiar tropes of both the slasher and “whodunit” variety, comprising ringing phones accompanied by mysterious callers, self-aware and snarky young adults and rules to survive by that, perhaps by design, often don’t hold all that true in the end.
But just as important as any recurring narrative beat or cameoing survivor is a song. While it only plays for what amounts to a handful of minutes over the course of five films, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds’ “Red Right Hand” is as instrumental to the atmosphere of the Scream franchise as the looming threat of those who hide behind the trademark white mask caught in its silent howl.

When Scream became a smash hit at the end of 1996 and beginning of 1997, screenwriter Kevin Williamson and director Wes Craven were asked to rush a sequel for release less than a year later. Williamson was actively writing and producing Dawson’s Creek at the time, so he performed double duty by flying back and forth between Dawson’s North Carolina set and Scream 2’s Georgia set. Production was so accelerated that he wrote much of Scream 2 on set, and given the newfound, rabid interest in the budding slasher franchise, Williamson released “dummy scripts” to combat any leaks from casting and production about the ending.
“Wes [Craven] would make the actors come and read [the script] before they auditioned, and we just knew that people would start talking,” Williamson tells The Hollywood Reporter in support of Scream 2‘s 25th anniversary. “There was such an interest...

Christian Bale plays an 1830s detective tasked with solving a series of grisly, possibly cult-related murders in Netflix’s ice-cold thriller, “The Pale Blue Eye.” Watch the first trailer above.
Scott Cooper’s film, which the streamer acquired last year in a 55 million deal, takes place at West Point Academy, a military training school. When a cadet turns up dead, its leadership turns to Augustus Landor (Bale) for help – a local detective who, if rumors are true, “once elicited a confession with nothing more than a piercing look”.
The trailer opens on a wintry landscape, where Landor contemplates the crime at hand – a soldier has been hanged, with his heart expertly cut out from his chest.
