Love, Song: My Brother
Frank Ochieng @ Screen Anarchy
- Excerpt: Writer/director/actress Qingge Gao’s poignantly sedate Chinese-language romancer Love, Song (a.k.a Love, Song: My Brother) is a devoutly tender and expressive short drama about the identity of love and romance between lifelong friends grounded in the questionable blur of committed childhood friendship morphing into passionate young adulthood.

Five Horror Film Treats
Betty Jo Tucker @ ReelTalk Movie Reviews
The Inkwell
- Excerpt: The Inkwell has some serious problems in terms of character and tone—the former are largely stereotypes, while the latter relies far too much on broad silliness that seldom is funny—but it’s hard to know who to blame.
Kids’ Movies That Proved Surprisingly Controversial
Richard Jack Smith’s New Book
Betty Jo Tucker @ ReelTalk Movie Reviews
- Excerpt: My rave review of “A Poet Among Critics” by Richard Jack Smith
Smashing Time
- Excerpt: Smashingt Time is perfectly mad, in the best British sense, and screenwriter George Melly (known primarily as a jazz musician, he wrote only one other feature-length screenplay) and director Desmond Davis (known primarily for Clash of the Titans) pull out all the stops as they go for impact over logic. This is the opposite of a well-made film, in other words, but it’s a lot of fun if you’re in the mood for high silliness.
The Style of Sleaze
Peter Nellhaus @ Coffee, Coffee and more Coffee
The Terror Tells of Men and Monsters, Consumed by Fear, and Each Other
- Excerpt: The Terror is an impressive production, featuring a stellar lineup of talent both in front and behind the camera, all contributing to a tangible sense of authenticity.,Some fine writing builds the horrors that gradually engulf these men and unleash what’s within. Undoubtably one of the standout works of 2018.
