Films I Watched in September 2026

Nightcrawler (2014) ★★★★⯪

I wasn't sure how I was gonna like this one, it's always a toss up with Jake Gyllenhaal films, but I really enjoyed it. The film really sucks you in immediately. Every character is doing messed up things but each have their own self justified reasoning for it. My fave is sweet little Rick, who didn't deserve to die, he just wanted $75 a night ☹. The soundtrack for this film is also superb, it brings you fully into the scene that's unfolding in front of you. It also made me feel like I could hear Lou's thoughts as he puts together his sprawling plans in an instant.

His House (2020) ★★★★★

I thoroughly enjoyed this film. Wunmi Mosaku and Sope Dirisu were amazing. Both of them, separately and together, absolutely acted their faces off. It was such a soul touching film. The supernatural elements were done very well, you could feel the sense of dread creeping up on you as the spirits slowly started to take over the house and their minds. 

The Whisper Man (2026) ★★★☆☆

A very middle of the road horror film, there was nothing disappointing or lacking in this film. It was just, fine. The acting is good throughout but that isn't surprising, seeing as every single actor in this film, save for the kid, is a very established name (even the kid has been in a big budget film already). The amount of star power in this cast is astounding for how mediocre this film is. Typical mediocre Netflix.
