KINDS OF KINDNESS
After the success of Poor Things, Yorgos Lanthimos and Emma Stone are back for another mind-bending dark comedy. This film features a triptych fable following a man without choice who tries to take control of his own life, a policeman who is alarmed that his wife who was missing at sea has returned and seems a different person, and a woman determined to find a specific someone with a special ability who is destined to become a prodigious spiritual leader.

LAVENDER FIELDS
Whenever mother Jodi Sta. Maria has a new teleserye, we’re watching. And her latest project sees her do what she does best: get justice from the people who wronged her. The show centers on a flower farmer who starts a relationship with a wealthy man. But unbeknownst to her, he’s married, and what’s worse is that she gets pregnant. Following a failed attempt on her life, she decides to re-emerge with newfound influence to find her child and get revenge. Lavender Fields is now airing nightly on ABS-CBN and Netflix.
BEETLEJUICE BEETLEJUICE
Did someone say sequel to a decades-old classic? Three generations of the Deetz family return home to Winter River after an unexpected family tragedy. Still haunted by Beetlejuice, Lydia’s life is turned upside down when her rebellious teenage daughter, Astrid, discovers the mysterious model of the town in the attic and a portal to the Afterlife is opened. With trouble brewing in both realms, it’s only a matter of time until someone says Beetlejuice’s name three times and the mischievous demon returns to unleash his very own brand of mayhem. See how this unfolds as the movie is now screening in local cinemas.

One thing about James McAvoy, he’s going to eat up a horror movie role. This American remake of the acclaimed 2022 Danish horror film of the same name centers on an American family who meets and befriends a charming British family while on a weekend in their idyllic country estate. A dream holiday ensues, but it soon warps into a psychological nightmare as not everything is what it seems. The intense suspense thriller screams in cinemas this September 11.

THE SUBSTANCE
Horror fans, you might want to keep this on your radar. This body horror movie follows a woman in her 50s whose star has waned over the years. Looking to revitalize her career, she agrees to a proposal where, if she takes a mysterious substance, she becomes a younger and more beautiful version of herself. You can probably imagine what happens next. Following its electric debut at Cannes last May, the movie now hits local cinemas this September 25.
