Even though the holidays are upon us, that doesn’t mean the horror and sci-fi genres are slowing down, especially on the VOD side of things. For December, we have 21 different titles arriving on digital platforms, including two films I absolutely adored this year: The Eyes of My Mother (hits VOD on December 2nd) and Beyond the Gates (arrives on December 9th). Several other indie films will be coming home to VOD over the next few weeks, too, including Pet, Abattoir, The Possession Experiment, and Blood Brothers, and for those of you who may have missed it in theaters, Train to Busan hits VOD on December 13th, and it is not to be missed.
Other VOD releases for December include Solace, Morgan, Good Tidings, It Watches, The Disappointments Room, and the V/H/S-based SiREN.

September – along with January, to be fair – is known largely as a cinematic wasteland wherein studios unleash particularly unambitious projects upon the world, the kind of mid-budget films that tend to play it safe narratively and, if they’re lucky, could eke out enough money at the box office to turn the dearth of actual must-sees into a modest profit. When the Bough Breaks is a perfect example of this. With a reported budget of only $10 million, the film hews closely to the formula of its forebears and leverages the presence of two solid actors in the hopes of capitalizing on the post-summer, pre-awards season window.
The film stars Morris Chestnut and Regina Hall as John and Laura Taylor, a married couple who have been dying to conceive their first child. After years of trying and enduring multiple miscarriages, they have decided to go the surrogate route, and when they...

Some movies try to blend genres as a master chef would blend cuisines, combining flavors—some familiar, some exotic—to create an experience unlike any you’ve experienced before. Not so with When The Bough Breaks, a textbook potboiler starring Regina Hall as Laura Taylor, a chef (thus the metaphor) who we never actually see cooking, just taking bites of things and closing her eyes in sensual bliss, the better for us to admire her perfectly fanned-out false eyelashes. Laura lives in a beautiful New Orleans mansion with her sexy, devoted lawyer husband, John (Morris Chestnut), where they sip wine and luxuriate in silk pajamas that perfectly cup their perfectly rock-hard buttocks, and there’s nary a pore between them. Despite her Crate & Barrel catalog of a life, though, Laura is incomplete as a woman, because she can’t bear a child.

Welcome back to the Weekend Warrior, your weekly look at the new movies hitting theaters this weekend, as well as other cool events and things to check out.
This Past Weekend:
As expected, Labor Day weekend wasn’t good for the two new wide releases at all, although the romantic drama The Light Between Oceans (DreamWorks), starring Michael Fassbender and Alicia Vikander, ended up doing far better of the two. Also as expected, Fede Alvarez’s Don’t Breathe (Screen Gems) won the weekend with a four-day total of $19.7 million, a little less than I predicted. The Light Between Oceans ended up with slightly over $6 million, roughly the same as my original prediction but 20th Century Fox’s thriller Morgan, starring Kate Mara, bomb-bomb-bombed with a ridiculously bad four-day opening of just $2.5 million in its first four days. The Mexican comedy No Manches Frida (Lionsgate/Pantelion) ended up faring better in just 362 theaters,...

John and Laura Taylor (Chestnut and Hall) have a perfect life together – successful careers, a beautiful home – but they’re desperate to have their own child. When it’s clear that it’s not going to happen naturally, John and Laura choose surrogacy and end up finding Anna (Jaz Sinclair), a young woman who really wants to help the Taylors fulfill their dream of being parents. Except Anna isn’t what she seems, and she soon becomes fixated on John, changing from an innocent young girl into a dangerously obsessed woman.
