Make sure to add these to your watchlist! BlackBerry BlackBerry masterfully blends wit and insight, offering an engaging and entertaining exploration of the rise and fall of a generation-defining device. If you’re a fan of corporate dramas, or simply nostalgic for the heyday of BBM, this film is a must-see! Skinamarink Skinamarink skillfully explores a deep-rooted fear, tapping into nostalgia to portray the unsettling experience of a child who wakes up at night to explore their family home. If the 'liminal spaces' horror trend on TikTok had you spellbound, this indie horror will be right up your alley.  Solo Dupuis strikes a thoughtful balance between exuberant performances and nuanced, reflective moments, offering a heartfelt glimpse into the vibrant and textured world of the drag community.  Infinity Pool Brandon Cronenberg's "Infinity Pool" is a gripping sci-fi horror that dives head first into a nightmarish world of hedonistic tourism. The film’s unapologetically bold and surrealist style made it a true standout in 2023.   Humanist Vampire Seeking Consenting Suicidal Person Ariane Louis-Seize's directorial debut is a bold, whimsical horror-comedy that offers a fresh take on the coming-of-age subgenre. The film follows a teenage vampire named Sasha, who is too sensitive to bite, and her romantic counterpart, Paul, a human high schooler struggling with suicidal thoughts.
