Autopilot Rom-Com and Looping Nightmares: A Four-Film Review Roundup

Four new releases are reviewed: You, Me & Tuscany is buoyed by Halle Bailey but crippled by ugly visuals; Exit 8 creates an atmospheric loop-like mood yet drags; Hamlet as a modern London adaptation limps under busy camerawork and editing, despite Riz Ahmed's strong turn; Faces Of Death uses meta-horror to critique online content but doesn’t fully land. Overall, the round-up is mixed, with several high-potential ideas undercut by execution issues.

Netflix’s Hitchcockian Wedding Week Dread Comes to Life in a New Miniseries

Netflix’s eight-episode miniseries Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen builds a creeping, Hitchcock-inspired mood as a couple prepares to wed at a remote cabin. Early episodes lean into atmosphere and mystery, with episode four delivering pivotal reveals that push the story forward. While Camila Morrone leads with a strong performance and Jennifer Jason Leigh shines as the matriarch, some characters feel more like props than fully drawn people. Overall, it’s a tense, mood-driven watch that horror fans may want to binge for its sustained dread, even as it withholds some answers for later.

Adam Scott stars as a troubled American novelist who travels to a haunted Irish inn to scatter his parents’ ashes, only to confront a cursed honeymoon suite, a murky mystery and a director’s diffuse script. While Hokum delivers a claustrophobic mood and striking production design, Damian McCarthy’s script leans into atmosphere over explanation, mixing supernatural hints with a non-supernatural crime plot and leaving some threads unresolved as the film heads toward streaming.
