This is our NEW RELEASE review podcast, ONE HOT TAKE.

So the film exists in two states. As a complete object, it is monumental, fluid, overwhelming in its design. As a memory, it remains something fractured, two meals served separately, each with its own aftertaste.

Synopsis:

A female assassin seeks revenge on her former lover and squad members, all of whom left her for dead.

This is our NEW RELEASE review podcast, ONE HOT TAKE.

Raimi leans into the tactile. Bodies are constantly under assault. Fluids, impact, proximity. It is gleeful in a way that borders on deranged, but always controlled. The disgust is not incidental. It is the joke.

Synopsis:

When an employee and her insufferable boss become stranded on a deserted island, the only survivors of a plane crash, they must overcome past grievances and work together to make it out alive.

To celebrate the release of WOLFRAM, I talk with director Warwick Thornton about his gentle sequel to SWEET COUNTRY, surfacing untold Australian history, strange rhymes with BLUEY, and facing the challenge of making something with the power and impact of poison (Sweet Country) and being compelled to create an antidote (Wolfram).

Synopsis:

Set on the colonial frontier of the 1930s, in the same universe as Thornton's multi-award-winning Sweet Country, Wolfram follows two swaggering outlaws who roll into a mining town, their cruelty shattering a fragile community and driving three irrepressible kids to break free from their white masters and set off across the Australian outback in search of home

Starring the brilliant Deborah Mailman alongside Erroll Shand, Joe Bird, Thomas M Wright, Matt Nable and Pedrea Jackson, and produced by Bunya Productions’ Greer Simpkin and David Jowsey, Wolfram is a taut frontier western where Aboriginal child labourers in the wolfram (tungsten) mines confront colonial brutality and injustice.

• Wolfram is written by Steven McGregor and David Tranter, and Tranter co-produces with Drew Bailey, and is co-distributed by Dark Matter Distribution and Bonsai Films.
• Wolfram had its international premiere in the Main Competition of the 76th Berlin International Film Festival in February 2026, where it was nominated for the prestigious Golden Bear.

WOLFRAM IS SCHEDULED TO RELEASE IN AUSTRALIAN CINEMAS ON APRIL 30, 2026.

The point was never the gig or the success. It is the continuity. The same faces, the same jokes, the same refusal to move on.

Synopsis:

When their plan to book a show at the Rivoli goes horribly wrong, Matt and Jay accidentally travel back to the year 2008.

This is our NEW RELEASE review podcast, ONE HOT TAKE.

What lingers is not the question of what the monster is. It is the feeling that the film has constructed a world where danger is both external and internal. The thing under the bed is no more or less real than the lives these characters have built. 

Synopsis:

An eight-year-old girl asks her scheming neighbour for help in killing the monster under her bed that she thinks ate her family.

This is our NEW RELEASE review podcast, ONE HOT TAKE.

What DaCosta understands is that this middle chapter does not need to climax. It needs to deepen. There is less propulsion than 28 Years Later, less of Boyle’s kinetic charge, but in its place is conceptual drift.

Synopsis:

As Spike is inducted into Jimmy Crystal's gang on the mainland, Dr. Kelson makes a discovery that could alter the world.
