The New Jersey Film Festival takes a bite out of The Flesh People

by Jack Bolton
published 2026-09-19

How far are you willing to go for success? What lines will you cross to feel important? Keshav Srinivasan asks these questions with The Flesh People, and the answers are gruesome. In this film, roommates Ricky (Jorge Carrión Álvarez) and Geraldine (Louise Heller) decide that the best way to make money is to do underground surgeries on people and serve food made of human meat. Trigger warnings aside, this might be one of the best body horror movies I've seen in a while.

Intense short Remember This screens at the New Jersey Film Festival!

by Catherine Liu
published 2026-09-16

Andrew Serban’s short film Remember This caught me in its visual logic before anything else, prompting me to explore its themes of certainty and ambiguity, which kept me engaged throughout. The black-and-white cinematography feels like a world that presents itself in certainties, in right and wrong, true and false, yet the more I watched, the less I could verify anything. The form and the content are in conversation the entire time, and I found that genuinely satisfying.



Honest and Emotional Documentary The Bond That Broke Screens at the New Jersey Film Festival!

by Penelope de la Cruz
published 2026-09-15

Some of the most difficult things passed down through families are the ones rarely spoken about. In The Bond That Broke, director Jeff Mizushima explores this through mother and daughter Kathi Ross-Nash and Dr. Zoe Ross-Nash, whose lives have both been shaped by eating disorders in very different ways. Kathi struggled with bulimia for decades, while Zoe became a clinical psychologist largely because of what she learned about her mother’s experience with an eating disorder. Their stories make them feel like two sides of the same coin.



Film Review - "The Runner"

by Eric Hillis, TheMovieWaffler.com
published 2026-09-13

Kevin Macdonald's The Runner is the latest in a wave of thrillers in which a hapless protagonist is forced to become an accomplice to a crime, receiving orders from an anonymous villain over the phone. The formula worked quite well in Drop and Carry-On, but crucially, those movies were anchored by lead turns from capable actors in Meghann Fahy and Taron Egerton. Expecting a performer as limited as Gal Gadot to carry a movie on her own is asking for trouble, especially when the script is as shoddy as the one provided here by screenwriter Mark Gibson.
