Writer and director Ari Aster is back in theaters with his new A24 film, “Beau is Afraid,” a three hour-long horror comedy that depicts anxiety and mommy issues in the most confusing, abstract way.
In the past few months, several films with absurd plots have hit movie theaters successfully for some. The campy horror film “M3gan” about a robotic doll in a blonde wig, and “Cocaine Bear,” a movie about a bear on cocaine, were released this year.
The University of La Verne Film Society hosted its first event of this year on Tuesday night at La Fetra Hall. Their first event theme was focused on romance with a screening of “Chungking Express.” “Chungking Express” is a 1994 Hong Kong romantic crime comedy-drama that focuses on the need to make a connection with someone and be able to hold on to them.
The most wonderful time of the year is here. And now that there is a nip in the air, it is time to get cozy under a blanket with hot cocoa and a great Christmas movie.
