With High Life approaching and Ad Astra arriving this summer, it’s shaping up to be another year of bold, beautiful sci-fi and one we hope doesn’t get swept under the radar is a favorite from the Toronto International Film Festival. Directed by Pella Kågerman and Hugo Lilja, Aniara is based on 1956 poem by Swedish Nobel laureate Harry Martinson and follows a group in a spacecraft bound for Mars that steers off course and an existential crisis kicks in for the passengers. Ahead of a release this summer, Magnolia Pictures has now released the first trailer.
Jared Mobarak said in his review, “Think High-Rise in space, the existential crises of being trapped in this cage feeding anxieties until sanity becomes hard-pressed to sustain. Chefone finds himself consumed by the power his position as captain affords — the trepidation and fear of mutiny at the start transforming into an entitled confidence...

"We can no longer steer Aniara..." Magnolia Pictures has debuted the first trailer for sci-fi thriller Aniara, an exceptional indie film about a spaceship carrying settlers to Mars that is knocked off course, causing the consumption-obsessed passengers to ponder their place in the universe. This premiered at the Toronto Film Festival last year, and stopped by a few other festivals. I saw the film at Tiff and totally loved it - writing a glowing review saying "this film is Amazingly good, perhaps the best indie sci-fi I've seen since Arrival, perfectly executed and invigorating in its rigorous sci-fi storytelling." Starring Emelie Jonsson, Arvin Kananian, Bianca Cruzeiro, Anneli Martini, Jennie Silfverhjelm, Peter Carlberg, and Emma Broomé. This film truly is one of the finest sci-fi films of the last few years, and I can't wait to see it again and dig more into its big ideas. I've been telling all my...

Blu-Ray Rating: 4.0/5.0 Chicago – Tomas Alfredson’s “Let the Right One In” was one of the most critically acclaimed films of 2008, an arthouse sensation that has been so beloved by everyone who has seen it that it ranks among the best films of all time on IMDb based on user votes. Based on the book by John Ajvide Lindqvist, “Let the Right One In” is a masterpiece of its genre, one of the most essential vampire films ever made. The Blu-Ray is a little disappointing, but the film itself makes up for it.
The theme of nearly every piece of vampire fiction is isolation. The vampire is the outcast, the count in a creepy castle who will outlive or kill everyone he’s ever cared about. “Let the Right One In” brilliantly melds that idea with one of the times when a lot us felt like outcasts - puberty.
