Boarding School follows in suit with the continued reinvigoration of the horror genre, breaking away from the cliché and introducing new scares.
A striking cautionary tale with authentic performances, Searching is a small thriller whose computer-screen gimmick actually elevates its subject matter.

The Forest of the Lost Souls is an impressive debut that will find its audience in those filmgoers who appreciate cinematic genre fusion.
Along Came the Devil balances haunting imagery and genuine scares with a realistic story about family, tragedy, and overcoming loss
