As Wolfwalkers begins, the 17th-century Irish city of Kilkenny has a wolf problem.

Don’t avert your eyes from Alfredson’s gorgeously, meaningfully aestheticized vision, though you may want to cover your neck. But Alice Júnior visibly struggles to differentiate itself from a soap opera. They're awarded Emmys for their work. A vivid up-close view of the travails of U.S. troops in Afghanistan. While the setting is shifted from late-1980s Europe to 1968 Alabama, the bones of the story—scripted by Zemeckis along with Guillermo del Toro and Black-ish creator Kenya Barris—match those of Nicolas Roeg’s 1990 adaptation. No real blood or death is shown on camera, but there's frequent shooting and several explosions, and several real-life soldiers die.

The most hideous of this film’s images is a shot of the back of Brian’s neck after Aylmer—an eight-inch-or-so-long creature that resembles a cross between a tapeworm, a dildo, and an ambulant piece of a shit along the lines of South Park’s Mr. Hanky—has first injected him, with its cartography of blood lines that are so tactile we can nearly feel Brian’s pain as he touches it.

After asking Dana Andrews’s comically hardheaded Dr. Holden how can one differentiate between the powers of darkness and the powers of the mind, Niall MacGinnis’s wily satanic cult leader conjures up a storm of epic proportions to prove to the pragmatic doctor that the power of the dark arts is no joke. One of the most common claims made about horror films is that they allow audiences to vicariously play with their fear of death. Men are killed in this documentary (though you don't get to see the incident). Your privacy is important to us.

Throughout Raw, director Julia Ducournau exhibits a clinical pitilessness that’s reminiscent of the body-horror films of David Cronenberg, often framing scenes in symmetrical tableaus that inform the various cruelties and couplings with an impersonality that’s ironically relieved by the grotesque intimacy of the violence. Men die because they can't be rescued in time. While there are some elements to admire in this adaptation, particularly its being cast with mostly black performers, much of it falls into the category of Competent But Unnecessary Remake.

Counterintuitively, Sorogoyen has plunked the short, unchanged, at the start of his feature-length adaptation, which then diverges from it radically in pacing and tone without sacrificing the coherence of the feature as a whole, like an explosion followed by silence.

The use of GoPro cameras on top of helmets successfully immerses the viewer into the deadly world that soldiers inhabit, day in and day out.

It is the longest war in American History to date and it is still going on. But Mike’s journalistic credibility also serves, of course, as a necessary source of credibility for this documentary about the war in Afghanistan. Laugier’s film is grueling because there’s no real way to easily get off on images of simulated violence. This film’s landscape shots impose a filter of ambiguity that we can only puncture with speculation.

This movie has been showing around the country in limited release for several months.

But the film’s most interesting moments emerge precisely when it surrenders to the presumably illogical strangeness of erotic fantasy.

Things come to a head in a showy dramatic scene roughly halfway through the film set inside a swanky hotel ballroom. The entire story feels very contrived and almost like I am watching those ubiquitous reality TV shows most Americans can't get enough of. Perhaps the best way to enjoy In the Mouth of Madness is to relinquish your sanity, losing yourself inside of its loopy, Lovecraftian logic. Title: However, that coda is replaced by a non-Dahl framing device voiced by Chris Rock that brings a new wrinkle to the conclusion which would be more enjoyable if it weren’t doing double duty as the launch pad for potential sequels or spin-offs.
