Good Movies / Re: Recent theatrical viewings
Last post by Dr. Whom - Today at 02:08:18 AMAnother World (2025)
This is a Hong Kong animated feature based on a Japanese novel. The titular other world is a kind limbo where the souls of the dead arrive. They are then helped by the soulkeepers to leave their old life behind and move on towards the cycle of reincarnation. One of these soulkeepers meets a little girl who can't move on because she is still looking for her kid brother.
The plot is pretty complex and it is hard to talk about it without giving spoilers. The movie is in fact a meditation about why people do hurtful things and about the possibility of escaping the cycle of violence through understanding. Although it looks like your standard cute anime, it is very dark, so for the love of God, don't take any young kids to see it. It does end on an upbeat note, so it is not quite as bleak as, say Unicorn Wars, but it equally does not shy away from the cruelty and unpleasantness of life.
Great stuff.

Good Movies / Re: Recent Viewings, Part 2
Last post by lester1/2jr - April 16, 2026, 03:11:44 PMThe Woman In Black (1989) - Watched this based on Trevor's intriguing review. I usually watch movies with subtitles just so I don't miss anything, but I definitely needed them for this one. It's British and very "not for export" so it was challenging to follow some of the dialogue.
An insurance guy is sent out to assess a property way out on the marshes in England. When he gets there, it's clearly a haunted house situation. He struggles to do his mundane job while being subject to insane ghostly marsh yelling, paranormal pranks, and of course, the titular lady.
It kind of felt like a metaphor for serving in a war, like when he says to his boss "You sent me there because you were afraid". The ending, which is what I think inspired Trevor's avant garde looking review, is a wild and memorable one for sure. This was remade a while ago with Daniel Radcliffe in the main role. I might check that out.
4.5 /5 It's not a modern fancy horror thing with cute girls and gore and plot holes perfectly cleaned up, but for a TV movie from the 80's, it's pretty on point.
