BD Review: Tim Anderson Calls ‘A Reckoning’ a “Powerful Piece”
Bloody Disgusting’s Tim Anderson (Tex Massacre) has been a busy dude, but we’re excited that he’s returned with a fresh review for a new indie he’s raving about.
Entitled A Reckoning, Anderson calls A.D. Barker’s film “a powerful piece and one that will drive the viewer directly into the main characters shoes–which is the place where ‘A Reckoning’ really lives and breathes. So, as this film becomes available to a wider audience, consider whether or not you are mentally equipped to take the journey laid before you by the cast and crew of this amazing little independent film.”
By clicking the title above you can read the entire review, and check out the trailer, art and stills. Keep up with the release of the film at it’s official website.
Chris Columbus (Gremlins – writer, Home Alone – director) is headed back into the director’s chair for Thursday Murder Club, Amblin’s upcoming feature film adaptation of the same-titled novel written by Richard Osman. Variety first reported the news this morning.
It’s not a horror movie, mind you, but rather a star-studded murder-mystery. Think Rian Johnson’s Knives Out… only this particular murder-mystery is set in a retirement community!
Variety details, “The book, released in 2020, tells the story of four septuagenarian friends who live in a retirement community and solve cold cases for fun. When a shady property developer is found dead, the four find themselves in the middle of their first live crime.”
Helen Mirren, Pierce Brosnan and Ben Kingsley are “being eyed” to lead the cast!
Richard Osman’s 2020 novel was such a hit that it launched a franchise. Follow-up The Man Who Died Twice followed in 2021, with The Bullet That Missed coming along in 2022. And then there was The Last Devil to Die in 2023, with a fifth book in the series expected in 2025.
