(Welcome to The Daily Stream, an ongoing series in which the /Film team shares what they've been watching, why it's worth checking out, and where you can stream it.) The Movie: "A Simple Favor" Where You Can Stream It: The Pitch: "A Simple Favor"…

The first season of "Hunters" was simultaneously like a bolt of lightning and a lightning rod. Its presentation of the atrocities of the Holocaust was heavily criticized for exaggerating real-life horrors and trivializing them as a result. Its tonal…

"Everything Everywhere All At Once" is, appropriately, about ... well, a little bit of everything, as far as the human experience is concerned. Daniels' "Everything Everywhere All At Once" is a momentous achievement for a thousand tiny reasons and a…

It's the most wonderful time of the year, or so Andy Williams may have you believe. But while everyone was getting ready to spend time with their families, buying presents, and decking various halls with boughs of holly, film critics were scrambling…

Holy schnikes is it hard to live up to "Tommy Boy." While it wasn't exactly a critical darling, it performed ridiculously well in home video rentals, but none of that matters compared to the love audiences had and continue to have for the Chris…

The last "Star Trek" film to be released as part of the Kelvin timeline was the woefully undervalued "Star Trek Beyond," arguably the best of the three newest entries. Since then, "Trek" fans have been waiting (impatiently, no doubt) for a fourth…

The Movie: "Private Benjamin" (1980) Where You Can Stream It: Showtime The Pitch: Judy Benjamin (Goldie Hawn) has dreamed of one thing since she was eight years old, according to the film's opening title card: essentially, to be a wife. Specifically,…

The Movie: "The Secret Garden" (1993) Where You Can Stream It: HBO Max The Pitch: Young Mary Lennox (Kate Maberly) is an orphan. She was born in British-occupied India, where she was raised by her exceptionally wealthy and thoroughly ineffectual…

Anne Heche deserved better in every way. Her horrific treatment in the public eye led to her being pigeon-holed as the butt of a very cruel and stupid joke that bisexual people just can't make up their minds. Even now in death, publications ridicule…

When audiences were first introduced to Buzz Lightyear in "Toy Story," he was a toy spaceman based on the star of a hit sci-fi movie in-universe. "Lightyear" is that movie. If that's too much ridiculousness to process, just pretend that Buzz…

However memeable it's become over the years, "The Sixth Sense" is, in my opinion, M. Night Shyamalan's masterpiece. While rewatching it for this week's column, all I could do was remember what made it so terrifying to me as a child. I was 11 years…

(Welcome to TV, Interrupted, a series where the /Film team remembers, eulogizes, and makes a case for the revival of TV shows we loved that were canceled far too soon.) "Pushing Daisies" suffered from the same "problem" as other equally complex…

The found-footage movement was birthed by filmmakers with tight budgets and minimal resources who defied the odds to popularize home video horrors. Movies like "The Blair Witch Project" and "Paranormal Activity" showed that $15,000 and a handheld…

My ironclad love for the "Child's Play" franchise won't allow me to say there's a "worst" entry because they're all special. Around the internet, echoed through horror conventions, naysayers will tell you "Seed Of Chucky" is that low point. Don…

If you're reading this, then chances are you don't need me to tell you that "Scream" changed horror forever. Regardless of the other meta-horror features that came before it — of which there are several, perhaps most notably "Wes Craven's New…

Is there a more terrifying horror subgenre than aquatic horror? I'd argue there isn't. Who are we to understand oceanic depths and pitch-black waters yet to be explored? We can rationalize away zombies and ignore slashers as real-life canon, but…

We like to have fun here, in case you couldn't already tell. So this week, I decided to go with a contemporary creature feature that keeps the frights coming and your pulse pumping. Easily the best in the franchise, "Annabelle Comes Home" is a…
