Big hype.

Other Mommy — 15. Other Mommy (2026)
A woman shows up claiming to be someone's real mother, and the premise alone should have carried this thing for ninety minutes. Instead Other Mommy keeps handing its characters choices no sane person would make, the kind that exist only to stretch out a chase nobody asked to be this long. The dread is there in flashes. It just keeps getting interrupted by people walking into rooms they clearly shouldn't.

The End of Oak Street — 14. The End of Oak Street (2026)
Talent isn't the problem here. The End of Oak Street stacks a genuinely strong cast into a story that never figures out what to do with any of them, leaving every big moment feeling flat instead of earned. Scenes meant to hit hard just sit there, undercut by pacing that refuses to commit to a mood. Good actors can't save a script that keeps getting in their way.

Mercy — 13. Mercy (2026)
Somewhere inside Mercy there's a smaller, sharper movie buried under layers of screens, overlays, and digital noise that never stop competing for attention. Every scene feels like it's fighting its own technology instead of telling a story through it. The visuals are loud enough to drown out character work that might've actually landed. By the end you remember the gimmick and forget the people.

Scream 7 — 12. Scream 7 (2026)
Seven movies in, the mask comes back out and so does every trick this franchise has already used twice. Scream 7 leans on jump scares and reveals that feel copied from its own earlier installments, as if nobody wanted to risk doing something new. The self-aware humor that once felt sharp now just reads as tired. A franchise can only wink at itself so many times before the joke runs out. | © Paramount Pictures

Busboys — 11. Busboys (2026)
Nobody walked into Busboys expecting prestige comedy, but even low expectations couldn't survive the first thirty minutes. The jokes land with the same rhythm over and over, like the script ran out of ideas halfway through and just kept going anyway. Timing issues sink scenes that clearly wanted to be chaotic fun. What's left is a comedy that forgets to actually be funny.

The Bride — 10. The Bride! (2026)
Jessie Buckley and Christian Bale lead The Bride!, and neither one is the issue. The problem sits in the structure, which jumps around its Frankenstein mythology like it's allergic to a straight line. Scenes that should build dread instead reset the mood every ten minutes. People wanted a monster story and got a mood board arguing with itself. | © Warner Bros.

Return to Silent Hill — 9. Return to Silent Hill (2026)
Fog, a dead town, and a radio crackling with static. That's the setup fans of the games have waited years to see done right on screen. Return to Silent Hill gets the look close enough to hurt, then fumbles the dread with pacing that forgets to build anything. The source material deserved sharper teeth than this. | © Screen Gems

Wuthering Heights 2026 1 — 8. Wuthering Heights (2026)
Every frame of Wuthering Heights looks like it belongs in a fashion spread, which turns out to be the whole problem. Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi get buried under lighting choices and costume work that keep upstaging them. Heathcliff and Cathy's story runs on obsession, not elegance. Somewhere between the corsets and the color grading, the actual heartbreak went missing. | © MGM/Warner Bros.

28 Years Later The Bone Temple — 7. 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026)
Danny Boyle handed the reins to a story that needed a steadier grip. 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple swings hard on imagery, piling on religious symbolism until the plague-ridden world underneath gets lost. Ralph Fiennes shows up and briefly makes it feel grounded again. Then the movie wanders back into its own fog of ideas it never fully earns. | © Sony Pictures Releasing

Evil Dead Burn jpg — 6. Evil Dead Burn (2026)
Here's a franchise that used to run on dread alone, no gimmicks required. Evil Dead Burn swaps that for a wildfire backdrop and a script that keeps explaining itself instead of scaring anyone. The kills look fine. The tension never shows up to meet them. | © New Line Cinema

Disclosure Day — 5. Disclosure Day (2026)
An alien arrives with something to say, and the movie panics. Disclosure Day spends its first act building toward contact, then trades the idea for helicopters and gunfire. The premise promised a conversation nobody's had in a mainstream blockbuster before. Instead it hands us a chase scene we've watched a hundred times. | © Universal Pictures

The Last House — 4. The Last House (2026)
Two people fall in love on screen, and somehow neither performance registers as human. The Last House leans on dialogue so stiff it sounds translated twice. The horror elements barely matter next to the line readings pulling you out of every scene. A cast this capable deserved words worth saying. | © A24

Supergirl — 3. Supergirl (2026)
Krypton blows up, a girl arrives on Earth, destiny calls. None of it feels new in Supergirl, a movie built entirely from parts audiences have memorized by now. The fights hit the same beats, the villain monologues the same way, the ending lands exactly where you guessed in the first ten minutes. Familiarity isn't the same thing as comfort. | © Warner Bros. Pictures

Scary Movie 6 — 2. Scary Movie 6 (2026)
Six entries in, and the joke well is officially dry. Scary Movie 6 parodies films audiences have already half forgotten, landing jokes a full news cycle too late. What used to feel sharp and fast now feels like a rerun of a rerun. Spoofing horror only works if the spoof gets there first. | © Paramount Pictures

The Devil Wears Prada 2 — 1. The Devil Wears Prada 2 (2026)
Miranda Priestly built a career on one rule: never let them see you struggle. The Devil Wears Prada 2 breaks that rule by softening her into someone barely recognizable. Longtime fans clocked the shift immediately, pointing to scenes that trade bite for sentiment. The sequel wanted closure and ended up erasing what made the original sting. | © 20th Century Studios
