The guest house
The Guest House The old Victorian mansion stood tall and proud, its faded white paint peeling and chipped. The rusted wrought-iron fence surrounding the property creaked and groaned in the wind, warning all who approached that they were entering a place of darkness and mystery.

The dark forest
The The forest was always a mysterious and eerie place to venture into, especially during the night when the darkness engulfed everything in its path. The trees towered high above, casting ominous shadows across the forest floor. There was a sense of foreboding that hung in the air, like something sinister was lurking just beyond sight. Despite the warnings of the locals, a group of friends decided to explore the forest one night, unaware of the horrors that awaited them.

The Empty House on Willow Street
The empty house on Willow Street had been abandoned for years, its once-beautiful facade now a rotting, decaying shell of its former self. The windows were boarded up, the paint peeled off the walls, and the roof sagged under the weight of years of neglect.

The Haunted Village
Start The Haunted Village Once upon a time, there was a small village nestled deep in the heart of a dense forest. The village was known for its warm hospitality and friendly people. However, there was a dark secret that the villagers kept hidden from outsiders. It was said that the village was haunted by the spirits of the dead. Some claimed that they had seen ghosts walking the streets at night, while others reported hearing strange sounds coming from the old abandoned house on the edge of the village. Despite these rumors, the villagers carried on with their daily lives, hoping that the spirits would leave them in peace. Little did they know, the ghosts were far from done with them.

BLACK ADAM
Directed by Jaume Collet-Serra, and featuring a remarkable lead performance by Dwayne Johnson, the spiky and majestic "Black Adam" is one of the best DC superhero films to date. This tale of a gloomy, seemingly malevolent god who reappears in a long-occupied Middle Eastern nation rejects most of the choices that bland-ify even the good entries in the genre. For its first third, it presents its title character—a champion who challenged a despotic king thousands of years earlier—as a frightening and unknowable force with a bottomless appetite for destruction. Known by his ancient moniker Teth-Adam, his reemergence from a desert tomb proves both a miracle and a curse for people who prayed for someone to defend them against corporate-mercenary thugs who have oppressed them for decades and strip-mined their land.

BLACK PANTHER: Wakanda Forever
The center of “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever”—the sequel to the hugely popular “Black Panther,” and a tribute to the late Chadwick Boseman—is sincere, even if the overall film feels manufactured. It begins with a funeral for the recently deceased King T'Challa. Shuri (Letitia Wright) and Queen Ramonda (Angela Bassett) are dressed in white, following the black coffin, whose top features a silver emblem of the Black Panther mask and the crossed arms of the Wakanda salute. Their mournful procession, winding through the kingdom, is contrasted with slow-motion tracking shots of dancers jubilantly dancing in memory of their fallen king. After the coffin arrives at a clearing, where it ceremoniously rises to the sky, we cut to an earnest, emotional montage of Boseman as T'Challa. The solemn, aching continuum of images soon forms the “Marvel Studios” logo, announcing that this is still a Marvel movie. And “Wakanda Forever” is all the worse for it.

THE NORTHMAN
Describing “The Northman” as director Robert Eggers' most accessible film verges on misleading. The filmmaker's prior works—the puritanical hallucinations of “The Witch” and the desolate, mermaid fetishization of “The Lighthouse”—traded in traditional macabre American folklore for unconventional, ambient freak-outs. “The Northman” repeats the best instincts of those films, though to lesser effect. It demands audiences deconstruct overbearing patriarchal values, toxic masculine heroism, and the folly of revenge by pulling viewers through extreme devotion to familial honor. Eggers’ brand of psychological shock is bolder here than his prior works and potent in bursts, but barely works on boldness alone.

Glass onion:A knives out mystery
The best bits in “Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery” are the ones you won’t read about in this review (and hopefully won’t hear about before you see the movie). But rest assured that they are plentiful, and they’re scattered generously throughout Rian Johnson’s uproarious if slightly inferior sequel.
