"Maggie Gyllenhaal directs Oscar winners Jessie Buckley and Christian Bale in this feminist reimagining of the 1935 film Bride of Frankenstein, itself a riff on the Mary Shelley classic. Critics largely hated this one, and audiences stayed away en masse. You know what that means? Future cult classic!"
"Colleen Hoover is trying to become the Nicholas Sparks of the 2020s with the success of the adaptation of her It Ends With Us and the high-profile launch of this romantic weeper. Critics were mixed, but they usually are about romantic dramas."
"One of the best horror films so far this year is this Canadian chamber piece about a woman named Evy who hosts a podcast with her friend Justin. The pair receive a recording that purports to be from a couple dealing with a haunting."
The PVOD market is experiencing a lull, with few notable movie releases in January and February. Most 2025 theatrical releases are now available for home viewing, while 2026 titles are slow to appear. Upcoming months may see an increase in new releases. Notable films include Maggie Gyllenhaal's ambitious feminist reimagining of Bride of Frankenstein, which critics disliked but may gain a cult following, and a romantic drama adaptation by Colleen Hoover, which received mixed reviews. A standout horror film features a woman hosting a podcast about a haunting.
