Bone Chillers: Frankenturkey (1996)

I write for a diversity-focused film review blog, so I’ll be honest: I really wanted to like Pretty Lethal. Starring Maddie Ziegler, Lana Condor, Iris Apatow, Avantika, and Millicent Simmonds, Amazon Prime’s new thriller seemed like it would be a girl power movie about dancers with a horror action twist. Sort of a Suspiria for teens. But with shallow and unlikeable characters, a confusing plot, an overreliance on violence, and cringey dialogue, any fun the movie started out with was quickly lost. What was left was a faint echo of greater horror movies about dancers made before. 

Movies also have the ability to make the audience think deeper about an issue that plagues society. "Blindspotting" does that without shying away from the intense reality of police brutality and racial discrimination.

Sisters Mia and Emma discover and hunt down a unicorn with magical blood and want to protect it.

The film centers around two young women, Becca and Sam, who were once high school sweethearts until they reconnect in their town.

A pampered dog who gets lost and has to learn to live on his own while being flexible with surroundings.
