Mandy

As revenge films go Mandy is a doozie. Scenes awash in blood and sweat, punctuated with screams was not my cup of tea. I suppose I admire the dedication to the story, but this one was pretty boring to me.

Thoroughbreds

A percussive score lends the tone to Thoroughbreds as two women set out to right a wrong. With more depth than your average coming of age film, the decision making process and methods are intriguing and entertaining. Good film.
