Heretic
We’ve mentioned that there have been a lot of thriller and horror films this year, very few of them have actually been good. But joining the long list is Heretic, Hugh Grant is unexpectedly the perfect person to be in a horror movie. He is normally a romantic comedy person, maybe a period piece here and there but he really hasn’t delved into the creepy and frightening. I remember seeing exactly 1 trailer for this movie exactly 1 time and being vaguely interested, and then I just completely forgot about it. So now that it has reentered my consciousness, let’s talk about Heretic. Now this is an A24 film, which means it is either brilliant, or god-awful but they really don’t seem to have an in-between.

Lord of the Rings: War of the Rohirrim
Lord of the Rings: War of the Rohirrim was one of the most anticipated films for nerds this year. I love Lord of the Rings and am always craving stories from middle earth. I don’t care if they are good or not, I just want them. So I personally was very excited about this movie. I was also just really excited to get another LotR animated movie. There is just so much you can do with animation and Lord of the Rings is just the perfect backdrop for it.

Nightbitch
So we have talked about some pretty phenomenal movies this year, we’ve also talked about some pretty terrible ones. But we have yet to talk about one of the weirdest movies of the year. Starring Amy Adams, Nightbitch is a film that came out this year. The premise of this movie alone is actually insane and at the very least, it's interesting.

Small Things Like These
Small Things Like These is a historical drama starring Cillian Murphy. I suppose for the purposes of award season this qualifies as an international film but when I do my wishes and wants it's gonna go wherever I think it should be. Cillian has proven time and again that he is an incredibly powerful leading man so I was excited to see him in a quieter film. Especially one I knew he was excited about as he helped produce the film as well. This is based on a book that was very much based on a true story, so the framing of this story is rooted in reality.
