  • The Woman in the Yard, a psychological horror from Blumhouse
  • A Working Man, an action-thriller from MGM

I'm making this post to bring attention to original movies being released that people here might not have heard about. If it's recieved well, perhaps I'll make this a weekly series of posts about originals being released.

Okay, technically, A Working Man is based on a book, but for all intents and purposes, it's original.

I have heard about one and a half of these.

There are no longer gatekeepers, which means there are no longer promoters outside of narrowly defined online niches associated to specific brands or viral hits.

It... kinda sucks. I miss when we all heard about the same things. There were pros and cons to all the centralied control of dicourse, but man, do the pros sound increasingly better than the cons this century.

Yeah I have to check the Alamo app once a week to keep up what drives me nutts is they release all the originals in the same week to avoid the slop franchise movies. So it makes hard to see them in theater. Since the window for them being there is so short.

All three of these look pretty interesting.

At least "a working man" will be something i can just turn on and turn my brain off to. Sometimes you need that.

If A Working Man is based on a book, you can't really call it original. It's also another Statham action movie, which also can't really be called original.

I am excited to see Death of a Unicorn.

I was not overly excited by the trailer for "... Unicorn" but will watch it to give it a chance. The Monkey was borderline too silly for me but I did enjoy that one.
