The Red Tent (1969)

One Christmas Eve, after a sudden snowstorm, a group of teenagers will discover how their lives will change forever.

The movie opens with an empty house, cameras pan around from the perspective of what viewers are confused about at first, but turns out to be a spirit living in the home.

Laggies is a fantastic movie, filled with down-to-earth characters, transcendent themes, and witty comedy

Him is visually stunning—all concrete cathedrals and bone-rattling impact shots that look like a nightmare highlight reel. Marlon Wayans is magnetic as this legendary quarterback who's basically selling salvation with a smile that never quite reaches his eyes. But the story keeps running in circles: more tests, more cryptic pep talks, more ritualistic drills. The sports-as-religion metaphor beats you over the head when subtlety would've been more effective. The middle drags, and that finale chooses spectacle over substance. It's undeniably stylish, but left me cold. Also worth noting: despite the Monkeypaw connection, this isn't actually a Jordan Peele film—he didn't write or direct.

This horror, action, and fantasy movie released on Disney+ has a symbolic aspect.

The clever but socially-awkward Tetê joins a new school, and she'll do anything to fit in.
