The film is one that is best experienced with a friend who knows the “Dune” books well, as some things will go unexplained.

A Netflix Original, and a bizarrely different role for Brie, “Horse Girl” works in conjunction with multi-layered metaphors, though most predominantly the mental health/illness of the main character, Sarah (Brie).

Although the premise of the film alone was what caught me, its bizarrely unique execution reeled me in further.

Since it’s rare that filmmakers do video games justice, it’s also important to consider how awkward the translation from a game to a moving picture can be.

Instead, it’s important to yield my suspension of disbelief against the tone of the movie, which mostly feels like a college student’s excessively long biopic based on their black metal fanaticism.

“The VelociPastor” meticulously functions as a spiritual journey, comedy, drama, and action movie.

It’s almost surreal to see a movie that fits all the clichés of a normal music biopic without even focusing on the musician.

“The Forest of the Lost Souls” is, by all intents and purposes, a movie divided into two halves, not just cut in tone, but in genre, as well.

I found the low budget quality of “A Score to Settle” compelling enough for humor that I was willing to forgive the aimlessness of its plot.

In the advent of combining elements of two genres, “Brightburn” is a superhero horror film that contracts the concept of Superman, but on the other side of the coin.
