My First Year Off Campus: A Micro-Budget Thriller That Knows Exactly What It Is

There is a certain kind of indie horror that knows better than to oversell itself. My First Year Off Campus falls squarely into that camp. It is a micro-budget film, even if it does everything it can to keep you from noticing, and that quiet confidence ends up being one of its biggest strengths.

The White Lotus: Season 3 (2025) #DVD

As a massive fan of the first two seasons of The White Lotus, I was eager to dive headfirst into season three. Mike White’s Emmy-winning series has always thrived on the delicate mix of satire, mystery, and simmering tension, and relocating the story to the lush backdrop of Thailand only heightens that formula. The DVD release now gives fans the chance to relive all eight episodes, plus bonus content, and it is well worth adding to the collection.

Eddington (2025)

Ari Aster’s Eddington is a cinematic fever dream—an apocalyptic Western where cowboy hats are traded for face masks, and six-shooters for smartphones.

Unfortunately, in its swan song, the balance feels more off than on.

Clown in a Cornfield (2025)

Eli Craig’s Clown in a Cornfield is the kind of horror movie that knows exactly what it is—and executes with the confidence of a masked killer in broad daylight. Adapted from Adam Cesare’s novel by Craig and Carter Blanchard, the film is a back-to-basics slasher that manages to feel both comfortingly familiar and surprisingly fresh. Set in the economically shattered town of Kettle Springs, the story follows Quinn and her father as they attempt to rebuild their lives following a tragic past.
