Following 2021's Welcome to Raccoon City and a short lived 2022 Netflix series, this is the third attempt to reboot the Resident Evil property in just the last half decade. The decision to hand the IP over to Zach Cregger, of Barbarian and Weapons fame, initially seemed odd, as Cregger's previous work in the horror genre is so distinctive that he doesn't seem like the sort of filmmaker who would be happy to play in someone else's sandbox. But Cregger has made this reboot his own. Remove the title and you essentially have a standalone movie, one that thankfully doesn't rely on prior knowledge of either the original video games or the numerous screen adaptations.

The Hanged Man screens online for 24 hours at the Fall 2026 New Jersey Film Festival on Sunday, September 27. Here is my interview with Director Korab Uka:
The school classroom is a microcosm of society. It requires a strong leader in a teacher who can ensure everyone is pulling in the same direction. All it takes is one bad apple to disrupt the whole system. When I think back to my school days there were some teachers who knew exactly how to make us behave, and others who simply weren't cut out for the job. The latter's classes were anarchic, with half the class time devoted to trying to corral the little monsters who recognised weakness in their teachers. The sad thing is, most of these teachers would probably have been perfectly good teachers if they were allowed to simply teach rather than having to play a psychological cat and mouse game with budding sociopaths.

The Makin Waves Song of the Week is "Two Moths" from "Long Live The Low," the latest album by Jersey City singer-songwriter Sean Kiely,
She has been called a "Natural born performer" but that only scratches the surface of this statuesque entertainer's description possibilities. Perhaps she has been described as a "Natural born performer" due to her past as a touring musical theater artist or a musician or maybe something else but one thing for sure is; she has the wow factor and that she is Erinn Alissa.
Milcah Bassel is fascinated by absence. Nevertheless, the objects she creates have true presence.
