‘Predator: Badlands’ – A Warrior’s Redemption Film we Didn’t Know we Needed

by Carlos Ojeda November 4, 2025
written by Carlos Ojeda

In Predator: Badlands, director Dan Trachtenberg once again proves that the Predator franchise works best not as a blockbuster spectacle, but as a stripped-down survival drama.

Park Chan-wook’s No Other Choice is Dark, Gripping, and Bitingly Funny

by Ishan Wankavala October 16, 2025
written by Ishan Wankavala

Park Chan-wook’s No Other Choice is a darkly comic and visually stunning thriller about a laid-off paper factory worker whose desperate fight to preserve his identity spirals into absurd violence and moral collapse. By far my favorite film at NYFF 2025, it cements the South Korean film industry as a new behemoth not only in commercial success, but critical as well.
