The Front Room
A24 films have felt hit-or-miss lately, perhaps because they're consciously expanding in a more commercial, mainstream cinema direction. MaXXXine, Priscilla, and Civil War were met with polarizing reviews, while The Zone of Interest was (in this writer's humble opinion) a brutal, immediate classic. After a year of whiplash-inducing releases, I'll be happily seated for a straight-up scary movie starring Brandy as a pregnant woman besieged by her weirdo mother-in-law. The flick is also the first feature for director duo Max Eggers and Sam Eggers—yep, they're Robert Eggers' brothers.
