10 Cloverfield Lane is the giant monster attack/apocalypse horror film we deserved when the original Cloverfield came out in 2008. That film was an ambitious but messy shakycam disaster film with the bones of a good intimate horror/survival film trapped inside.
In Neon Drive, you control a car through eight separate levels, avoiding obstacles to the time of a New Wave/Synth beat. The controls are left/right (so arrow keys, a/d, or the directional buttons/stick on a controller). That’s it. Tap once to move over one lane on the road. The game shifts perspectives during the song. One moment you’re driving on a flat surface avoiding raised platforms, the next you’re dodging lasers from a spaceship.
This film is meant to leave you feeling angry about injustice in the world. It’s also an unrated horror film that has no content warning or parental advisory on it. The provided plot description is intentionally vague to avoid spoiling anything.
The Falling is, quite honestly, one of the strangest horror films I’ve ever seen. After the death of their close friend Abbie (Florence Pugh), a group of young women in a boarding school begin to experience uncontrollable fainting spells and mass hysteria. Is it the spirit of Abbie speaking through them? A side effect of memorializing their friend through the occult? Or a group of young people crying out for attention from an establishment that tries and fails to control their every thought and action?
