In comparison to 28 Years Later, Carsten says The Bone Temple feels a step in line with what writer Alex Garland does best, with a real dollop of humour to help the horror go down easier:

Writer-director Joe Carnahan is an old hand at b-movie suspense, and with The Rip he delivers in spades. Carsten says the script also comes through with a terrific third act twist:

Although not all of Fackham Hall's gags are winners, says Carsten, they come at such a clip if one bombs another is following right behind. By the third act, you’re either on board with the silliness or you’re not:

Carsten calls If I Had Legs I'd Kick You a deeply anxiety-driven, claustrophobic picture, with the camera focused on Rose Byrne’s drawn face and hollow, sleepless eyes. His review:

It’s the question cinephiles always bristle at, says Carsten, but the truth wouldn’t satisfy. What does your favourite movie say about you?

Marty Supreme's Marty is a symphony of bad decisions — he will lie and cheat to get what he wants, damn the torpedoes and the consequences. Carsten's review:

If I Had Legs I'd Kick You has room for moments of surreality, says Carsten, but it all comes back to lingering guilt as a mother. It’s a bleak, harrowing ride:
