The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai

Through the 8th dimension is the latest cinematic adventure of Dr. Buckaroo Banzai, the famed physicist/neurosurgeon/test pilot/rock star who sometimes saves the world. Oh, you are unfamiliar?
Peter Weller plays Dr. Buckaroo Banzai, who in this episode must save Earth from Red Lectroids, a group of interdimensional aliens led by an absolutely maniacal John Lithgow (delivering one of the most deliciously amped-up performances of the '80s). to offer). Banzai is aided by his bandmates, who are also his bandmates, including Jeff Goldblum dressed as a cowboy named "New Jersey".
One of the great joys of Buckaroo Banzai is that while it's actually a standalone film, it drops you into what feels like the middle of a long series, to its great (and often bizarre) benefit.
One of two films directed by WD Richter (1978 writer Invasion of the Body Thieves, Big problem in little China, and, no doubt, Stealthy), Buckaroo Banzai is an unforgettable cult classic. And remember… wherever you go, there you are. —Pete Volk

Return of Batman
Picture: Warner Home Video
A delightfully gothic adaptation of Batman with delightfully German expressionist architecture and a superb score by Danny Elfman, Return of Batman is filled with strange vibes, overwriting its bizarre plot with a tangible sense of Gotham as the real place.
Michael Keaton returns as Bruce Wayne, this time opposite the Penguin (Danny DeVito) and business magnate Max Shreck (Christopher Walken), with occasional help from Catwoman (Michelle Pfeiffer). An impeccable cast and truly unforgettable moments (the Penguin is running for mayor!), Return of Batman is the most complete version of Gotham City ever filmed. —PV

The Florida Project
Picture: A24 Movies
Central Florida is a strange place to be a child of a poor family. You grow up in the shadow of corporate dreamlands, where people from all over the world come to live out the fantasy of a weekend in the “happiest” places on earth, fueled by workers who historically earned on average $10 an hour. Directed by Sean Baker, The Florida Project is a little story set in that shadow, about a 6-year-old girl named Moonee (Brooklynn Prince) who lives in a Kissimmee motel called The Magic Castle with her mother Halley (Bria Vinaite), who, trying to making ends meet, often leaves Moonee to herself and the reluctant supervision of motel manager Bobby (Willem Defoe). The Florida Project is one of the best stories about Central Florida and Walt Disney World, a tale of childlike wonder and joy set a stone's throw from its monolithic commercialization and the economic hardships that keep tourists' monetary dreams afloat. —Joshua Rivera

Jeff Goldblum stars in David Cronenberg's 1986 sci-fi horror drama La mouche as Seth Brundle, a brilliant and ambitious scientist who undergoes a metamorphosis that would chill Gregor Samsa to the bone. The Fly is a mad science tragic tale that's as macabre as it is heartbreaking, heightened by Cronenberg's penchant for body-horror special effects, gratuitous violence and explicit sensuality. -YOU
La mouche leaves Amazon Prime Video the 31 march.
Get on the bus
Spike Lee's drama Get on the bus follows the story of 15 black men who collectively board a bus in Los Angeles bound for Washington DC, where they plan to attend the Million Man March. Sharing nothing in common but their race, destination and gender, passengers on board begin a shared journey of self-discovery that will compel them to answer the question of what drove them individually to embark on this pilgrimage. in the first place. Get on the bus is a powerful film, dispelling the misconception of the black experience as a monolith instead of a story of strength through solidarity, compassion and hope. -YOU

The never-ending story is a classic fantasy film dedicated to the power of storytelling to unleash and build the imagination of a young mind.

the hunter's night

The only film produced by actor-director Charles Laughton, the hunter's night is hailed by many as one of the most masterful stories ever brought to the screen. At the heart of the film's lasting legacy is Robert Mitchum's iconic performance as Harry Powell, a misogynistic serial killer with a flair for silver-tongued theatricality. Centered initially on the plot of Powell to seduce a gullible widow and discover the whereabouts of a stolen cache of $10, the film later unfolds on an odyssey through a rich expanse of stark, silhouetted environments, as the The widow's children desperately try to escape the mad preacher's murderess. intention.

Prestige

2006 Christopher Nolan movie Prestige, much like a magic trick, is (roughly) made up of three parts, or acts. The first part is the exposition, where we are introduced to the film's protagonists in the form of two rival illusionists played by Hugh Jackman and Christian Bale. Part two is the premise, where things go awry following a devastating onstage accident, pitting the two men on a lifelong collision course that turns their professional rivalry into a perilous vendetta. Part three is the climax, where the film takes everything we thought we knew about these characters and flips those assumptions to pull off the biggest cinematic twist of Nolan's career. Oh, and David Bowie is here dressed as Nikola Tesla. Do you watch closely? -YOU

Punisher: Warzone

I would understand if you missed Punisher: Warzone the first time – many people have done it. But Lexi Alexander's 2008 pre-MCU adaptation of one of Marvel's darkest anti-heroes is one of the best entries in modern superhero cinema, filled with life and color, an absolutely crazy about Dominic West as the main antagonist and lots of cartoonish violence. .
The third Punisher movie (the first being the oft-forgotten 1989 version starring Dolph Lundgren), this version stars Ray Stevenson as Frank Castle seeking revenge after his family is murdered. Alexander fully embraces the character's overtone and the violence he…
