Grin and Bear it - SMILE 2 Trauma-horror sequel sees the curse latch onto a pop superstar...

Parker Finn's debut horror feature Smile was originally destined for a streaming release. No one - not even the writer/director himself - expected that a late change to theatrical would create a hit horror sensation that made almost 13 times its budget at the box office. Given those figures, the swift greenlighting of a sequel came as less of a shock. But Finn didn't want to make a second movie just for the sake of it.

Bad Romance - Timestalker Alice Lowe falls in love with the wrong man time and time again...

Her antidote to that? Timestalker a dark not-quite-romcom set over the course of centuries. Her protagonist Agnes finds herself attracted to the same man, Alex (Dunkirk's Aneurin Barnard), in every lifetime as she's reincarnated in the 1680s, 1790s, 1980s and the 22nd century. As romantic as that may sound, there's a bit of a catch: 'He's sort of a dickhead. On the surface he's appealing, but under, he's not.'

Layla initially seems comfortable with their queer, trans identity, but all that changes when they fall in love with Max (Louis Greatorex). We see Layla acting differently whether they are with Max, their friendship group and their conservative parents as they struggle, notes Al-Kadhi, to 'negotiate which bit of themselves to show different people in their lives'.
