Unfriended is the kind of movie that I already can’t wait to watch again in ten years. Better yet–I’d love to watch teenagers ten years from now watch it and see if it makes any sense to them. This is to say, Unfriended is a movie that is violently in the moment, a unique and…
In 1973’s “The Exorcist,” 1986’s “Witchboard” and 2014’s “Ouija” (among others), we learned that playing with a Ouija board can expose you to some really dangerous spirits.

Sean Penn seems an even unlikelier B-pic headliner than Neeson once was, considering…
Bond is back. And just in time it seems to uncover a secret that threatens his future but is unlockable from his past.
