From filming style to a twisty narrative structure, “Saw” is a film that not only bore a franchise but has retained itself as a true horror classic.
Arthur must enlist the help of his half-brother Orm to protect Atlantis against Black Manta, who has unleashed a devastating weapon.
Malignant embraces the true cult sensibility that M3gan only gestures to, serving up a wildly entertaining and singular cinematic experience.
