Last year, three different Stephen King adaptations landed in theaters and each one also landed on my favorites list for 2025. Two are already available for home viewing and the third, THE RUNNING MAN, should be able today on Paramount+.

If you missed it, now's a great time to catch up.

After a theatrical release May 2025, Min Kyu-dong’s action thriller THE OLD WOMAN WITH THE KNIFE released on physical formats in Nov.

There are no bonus features included, sadly, which somewhat stunts the enjoyment of this complex actioner. #WellGoUSA #TheOldWomanwiththeKnife
Martial arts thriller “The Old Woman with the Knife” possesses an engaging philosophical question under its blood-letting surface.

Condolences on your loss, sir. May her memory be a blessing.

Good as the music is, brain can't handle it. Switched to the 1917 score.

Intense at times, but also dreamlike to match the vibe of the film.

Hopefully this works better.

An amazing resource! Thank you, Marya.
Over the last 5+ years I have interviewed over 130 female directors, cinematographers, or talent who have starred in a film directed by a woman

Ended up with one of the worst migraine's I've had in years last night, but trying to recoup by listening to Johnny Cash and writing about Jim Jarmusch's DEAD MAN.

Let's see how this goes, shall we?

I didn't read it aloud in a crowded room but to myself as my kids argued/discussed Minecraft, so I feel like it was the same thing.

This is beautiful, sir. Melancholic, hopeful, hilarious, and beautiful.
