This week on the I Hate Critics Movie Review Podcast, we dive into a bloody fairy tale twist, some high-stakes espionage, and a terrifying date night from hell—plus a couple of drum beats and a vampire classic for good measure.
The Death of Snow White
Directed by Jason Brooks – Starring Sanae
Loutsis
This isn’t the Disney version. Snow White is on the run from her
wicked stepmother and finds herself aligned with a group of seven
dwarves… who are less "Hi-Ho" and more "psycho." Expect gore,
survival horror, and a dark twist on a childhood favorite.
Warfare
Directed by Alex Garland & Ray Mendoza – Starring
Will Poulter, Charles Melton, Joseph Quinn
A gritty war drama where a Navy SEAL surveillance mission in Iraq
goes horribly wrong. Packed with tension, chaos, and Garland’s
signature existential dread.
Count Me In
Directed by Mark Lo – Featuring Stewart Copeland,
Claire Ferguson, Chad Smith, Clem Burke
A celebration of rock’s heartbeat—this documentary features some of
music’s most iconic drummers sharing what it means to keep time and
create rhythm. Warning: you might be inspired to buy a drum kit
afterward.
The Amateur
Directed by James Hawes – Starring Rami Malek,
Laurence Fishburne, Rachel Brosnahan
After losing his wife in a terrorist attack, a CIA codebreaker goes
rogue. Fueled by grief and intelligence, he sets out on a
globe-spanning mission of revenge when the agency fails him.
Drop
Directed by Christopher Landon – Starring Meghann
Fahy, Brandon Sklenar
What starts as a romantic evening for a widowed mom quickly
devolves into psychological torment when a mysterious figure
threatens her family unless she commits murder. Tense, intimate,
and full of suspense.
Sinners
Directed by Ryan Coogler – Starring Michael B.
Jordan, Hailee Steinfeld, Miles Caton, Delroy
Lindo
Twin brothers return home hoping for peace, only to find that evil
doesn't forget. A southern Gothic drama that mixes family trauma
with spiritual reckoning and small-town menace.
Classic Review: Fright Night (1985)
Directed by Tom Holland – Starring William
Ragsdale, Chris Sarandon, Roddy McDowall
Teenage horror nerd Charley Brewster is convinced his new neighbor
is a vampire. No one believes him, so he turns to a B-movie TV host
for help. Campy, creepy, and a total ‘80s gem.
