The latest film from Netflix, I Came By is a home invasion crime thriller with a fair amount of pedigree. It has a good British cast, a good director (Babak Anvari, the British-Iranian filmmaker behind Under the Shadow and Wounds) and a plot that features an interrogation of elitism and a lot of twists. Yet its release has flown under the radar. It reminded me a lot of how Netflix handled Jean-Pierre Jeunet's Bigbug, which was very interesting but ultimately buried by the streamer because of how ‘out-there' it was. Is I Came By just as interesting? Yes – at least for most of its runtime.In London, Toby (George MacKay) and Jay (Percelle Ascott) are graffiti writers who target the wealthy elite. Together, they hack into their security systems, break into their penthouse apartments and scribble a message onto their walls: ‘I Came By.' It acts as a warning, designed to make their victims uncomfortable and inspire everyone else to fight this unbalanced system of wealth. Their next target is Hector Blake (Hugh Bonneville), a respected judge who has recently resigned after 30 years. Noted for helping refugees and asylum seekers, he has been given the nickname ‘Saint Blake.' But Toby is convinced something sinister is lurking beneath the surface – linked to the long line of colonisers in Blake's family history.However, at the same time, Jay wants out. His girlfriend Naz (Varada Sethu) is pregnant, and he truly wants to be a father. After all, Jay has been to prison before, and he doesn't want to put Naz or his child in any jeopardy. So an annoyed Toby decides to do the mission alone, breaking into Blake's home one night. And then, he hears some rattling noises from the basement. What is Blake hiding down there? Whatever it is, it shocks Toby to the core, and he ends up seeking a way to bring down Blake once and for all.Saying anything more about I Came By, including the secret of what is in the basement, would spoil too much. However, the film does start brilliantly, taking time to establish its themes of class and elitism, its character dramas and the shocking mystery that propels the film. The performances are a big plus point too. For instance, George MacKay is very good, carrying the searing intensity that makes him an incredibly watchable actor. Toby is a complex, prickly character. His cause is noble (he is fighting against the elite and the system propping up that group of people), yet he treats everyone around him almost pig-headedly. He appears to be in a state of arrested development, bouncing between jobs and focusing solely on graffitiing that doesn't seem to have a purpose outside its basic ‘Fight the Power' message. It is a sharp contrast to Jay and his shifting priorities.Meanwhile, Hugh Bonneville's performance as Blake is startling. The British actor is known for his kind, comforting roles in Downton Abbey or the Paddington series. This is a completely different kind of performance. Bonneville's Blake uses charm as a disguise, his chuckles covering several layers of sinister intent. Toby is right – there is more to Blake than his charitable acts. And his evil does stem from his past, from the father whose portrait looms over his living room. But the chilling thing isn't why he commits the acts we see. Instead, it is how Blake gets away with everything in broad daylight. His relationships with police commissioners and powerful figures (we see pictures of him with Richard Branson and Tony Blair) that allow him to slip undetectedBabak Anvari is good at creating terror out of unassuming situations, and the first 40 minutes or so of I Came By sees an effective building of tension. Afterwards, though, things start going a little bit downhill. Coincidentally, the problems begin with the first of the film's many jolting plot twists. Admittedly, this first twist is an exciting and daring choice. And it does lead to something interesting, with the narrative shifting its focus onto other characters – especially Toby's therapist mother Lizzie (a superb Kelly Macdonald). Ultimately, Anvari and co-scriptwriter Namsi Khan take a few too many turns with their narrative. As a result, not only does the end feel unsatisfying and unfulfilling, but by that point, the film has abandoned the elitism and battles between classes that should have been constant throughout ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

First is Academy Award winner Guillermo Del Toro's dark fantasy, PAN'S LABYRINTH (2006), mistranslated from the original title, “El Laberinto Del Fauno” or “The Labyrinth of the Faun”. Set in Franco's Spain, a dictatorship which emerged after the Spanish Civil War, Ofelia explores a magical gateway in hopes of escaping her reality to a better plane. We then jump forward to the Iranian Revolution and the Iran-Iraq War in UNDER THE SHADOW (2016), a BAFTA winning film from director Babak Anvari. Here the ghostly djinn are as malicious as the bombs and missiles dropping on Tehran, as themes of motherhood and feminism emerge to the front line. We'll highlight these concepts and discuss both movies' use of symbolism and metaphor, as well as provide some useful historical context. Which is stronger: harsh reality or gorgeous fantasy?   “Francisco Franco and the Spanish Civil War,” by Khan Academy youtu.be/TYke_R9_ar8 “Why Iranian women are posting pictures of their uncovered hair,” by Vox youtu.be/PNdwFftpndM “March 8, 1979 Iranian Women March Against Hijab and Islamic Laws,” by Arjang Sepasi (translation of report on Women's March) youtu.be/pxGYLk92edY   Up Next: ANTICHRIST (2009) / THE SCREWFLY SOLUTION (2005)   Follow us at:  instagram.com/cadaverdogspod twitter.com/cadaverdogspod facebook.com/cadaverdogspod   Send us your film suggestions at: cadaverdogspodcast@gmail.com   Cover art by Omri Kadim.

    Anna Bogutskaya (The Final Girls and The Next Supremes) and Mike Muncer (The Evolution of Horror) join Flixwatcher remotely to review Anna’s choice Under the Shadow.   Under the Shadow is a 2016 Persian-language psychological horror film written and directed by Iranian British Babak Anvari. Set in 1980s Tehran during the War of the Cities, mother and former medical student Shideh and her daughter Dorsa are haunted by a spirit or djinn. Under the Shadow draws easy comparisons with both The Babadook (Shideh’s maternal shortcomings are visualised by the spirit) and The Devils Backbone (a political war as seen by a child) and this is no detriment. Supported by strong performances from its two leads Under the Shadow is a powerful (while not strictly a horror in the traditional sense) film that deserves a wider audience.   Scores [supsystic-tables id=163] With a runtime of 84 minutes Under the Shadow is definitely worth a watch and scores a very high 4.20 overall. You can also watch Babak Anvari’s latest film Wounds available on Netflix now. What do you guys think? Have you seen Under the Shadow? What did you think?

American horror films often inject terror into ordinary suburbs and quiet forest cabins. Babak Anvari skipped that trope.

Hi everyone! We are legally obligated to welcome back Shane Hyde to the podcast, a condition of the One Movie Punch Secret Volcano Lair Accords signed last year in the wake of Reign of Terror 2019. If you want the full details, be sure to check out last year’s month-long event, beginning with One Movie Spouse’s review for CAN YOU EVER FORGIVE ME? (Episode #594), and continuing all through October 2019. A month worth of Shane’s sultry voice, and secret machinations. He’ll be up for a Hulu Original film, at least in the United States, and apparently Netflix everywhere else. Strange times we live in! Before the review, we’ll have a promo from our friends at the Pop Pour Review podcast! Every week, the PPR crew review a film, then craft a cocktail based on the movie. I don’t drink myself, but I know a few people that do, and every recipe fits in surprising ways. You can find them on Twitter and Instagram @poppourreview, or by searching for Pop! Pour!

Connect with us over social media to continue the conversation. Here we go! ///// > ///// Kia ora! I’m Shane Hyde, a Kiwi living in Australia. Everything down here is currently on fire, so I’m staying inside and reviewing movies. Today I’m reviewing 2019’s WOUNDS. Let’s go. Today’s movie is WOUNDS(2019), directed and written for the screen by Babak Anvari. This movie stars Armie Hammer, Zazie Beetz, Karl Glusman, Christine Rankins, all putting in great turns with regards to the acting. First up, WOUNDS is the story of Will (Armie Hammer), he’s a barkeep on the late shift, who breaks up a fight, finds a cellphone, and then finds things starting to spiral out of control. No spoilers! No spoilers! You’re the spoilers! I gotta admit my joyous surprise with WOUNDS. As I feel it's not the film it advertises itself as. In the first act, it feels a bit like standard fare, you know, a number of relationships and conflicts (shall we say 'wounds'?). These are established, dominos set in place, and then the finding of a lost cellphone that sets everything off - and what a crazy ride WOUNDS is to its endings, both literal and figurative. WOUNDS is based on a novel The Visible Filth by Nathan Ballingrud. WOUNDS has a similar world-building feel to RESOLUTION or THE ENDLESS (Episode #273). As our protagonist Will investigates the lost cellphone, we see and feel The True World unfold around him in unanticipated and unexpected ways. And I gotta try real hard NOT to spoil stuff here, because our protagonist was living a shallow and selfish life, but as he dives deeper into his entanglements, he becomes unstrung, and we feel that confusion along with him, such is the world building. Director Babak Anvari rose to prominence with an Iranian horror film: UNDER THE SHADOW (2016). Now, that was a chilling and complex horror story set in war-torn Tehran in the 1980s. WOUNDS is an impressive successor to that. It’s low budget but filled with talent in front of and behind the camera. Both films mark Babak Anvari as a 'director of choice' - somebody whose career I'll be following with some joy and anticipation. And in this, there are echoes of Koji Shiraishi's NOROI: THE CURSE (2005). We are as lost as our protagonist as he tries to get to the bottom of things. His understanding only coming when he eventually gives in to everything that he's struggled against. And for all of this, WOUNDS avoids  a lot of the tropes that you might expect. WOUNDS touts itself as a psychological horror, and for three quarters of the film that's about right. For the last quarter... well, I’ll leave you to make up your own mind about that one. WOUNDS is the rug pulled out from under your feet. Existential nightmare dressed as psychological thriller. Rotten Tomatoes: 53%  Metacritic: 51  One Movie Punch: 8.0/10 WOUNDS (2019) is rated R and is currently playing on Netflix.

Among the films I've seen, though, there's been a fantastic selection of horror films, and I thought I'd spotlight four of them: three narrative features, all by first-time filmmakers, and a documentary. First up, The Eyes of My Mother. An American film, but with occasional Portuguese dialogue, it's one of the first films I got to see and it's still stayed with me. One day, a little girl witnesses some terrible violence in her home; an intruder shows up but is subsequently overpowered, and from that moment that violence seeps through to her brain as she grows up and her life spirals into chilling psychopathic behaviour. Shot in black-and-white, there's a wistful, melancholy, poetic tone enshrouding the on-screen horror. With echoes of The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, the film delves into some very dark places, both explicit and not. But despite the disturbing and violent developments the film manages to retain a beautiful, almost meditative atmosphere, and our sympathy for the central character never leaves even though she's doing awful, awful things. I mean, all she wants is a family... in a way...A very promising debut by filmmaker Nicolas Pesce. Maybe hug a loved one after this. Next up, there's Baskin. Another highly disturbing horror film, this time from Turkey, written and directed by Can Evrenol. A group of police officers receive a distress call in a remote building and head over to investigate. Once there they discover some truly hellish stuff. The film's got lots of graphic gore and screaming, with a shudderingly creepy main villain. The visuals are striking and colourful and the score is particularly vivid. Unfortunately, there's not much of anything else. The pacing is uneven and I didn't really find myself being invested in any of the characters, so despite several really interesting and horrifying sequences it all in all made for unengaging viewing. Some great ideas in this, but not entirely well-executed. Moving slightly east again we have Under the Shadow, by Babak Anvari, set in Iran in the 1980s, after the Iranian revolution and during the Iran-Iraq conflicts. It centres on a woman and her husband and young daughter living in an apartment block in Tehran. Not only is there the constant threat of missile attacks but some strange, nightmarish things start to occur, and when the father is called away to military service the mother and daughter are left to deal with the supernatural dread that plagues them. Under the Shadow does a fantastic job of channeling serious political and parental fears into a deliciously slow-burning terror, the tension building and building, holding you captive until it explodes in the final ten to fifteen minutes, unleashing full-scale horror. All throughout it stays gripping, then right at the end it starts ripping. Excellently shot with some unsettling camera movements and production design that captures the period as well as the evil closing in. Probably my favourite of the three. Finally, I saw Fear Itself, a documentary on horror films written and directed by Charlie Lyne. Or rather, it's not so much a documentary as a cine-essay, a stream of thoughts on horror films and the way that they relate to real human fears and anxieties. Impressive in scope and mesmerising in equal measure, the film itself is essentially a collage, in that it consists entirely of edited-together footage from existing horror films, and hypnotic narration over the top that takes you on an engrossing journey through humanity's darkness. The range of films chosen is admirable, encompassing a vast range of horror cinema from across the world and throughout history, even using some films that aren't traditionally considered horror films but which have certain elements that illustrate the points that the filmmaker is trying to make about horror films, which in turn ties back to the points he makes about humanity. And the exploration of the themes is engrossing, thoughtful and at times quite personal. It's transfixing and thought-provoking and highly recommended not just for horror fans but for anyone interested in the depths of the human soul. And that's all the horror films at the festival that I've been able to see so far, but there's more to come! A few I'm looking forward to are Killing Ground and The Devil's Candy, both by Australian directors, as well as The Lure and The Love Witch, which from what I've heard are very very weird, and I can't wait. There's still another week left of the festival, so get out there and start shitting your pants in terror. I'll be in the cinema with you, toilet paper in hand. Till next time, see you there...Written by Ben VolchokSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
