And Rebecca Hall, Amber Midthunder, Nathalie Emmanuel, and even Pete Davidson are all bringing the horror. Read on for these and more August 2022 titles that belong on your moviegoing radar.

2022 is a bad year for Beast. Even Idris Elba probably won’t be able to get me to root for humanity over lions. Maybe don’t eat the kids though.
When done well, these pictures demand to be seen on the biggest screen possible, on opening night, with a rowdy audience ready to have fun.That sounds like a terrible time
Gotta mention The Ghost and the Darkness if you’re going to name-drop movies in response to Beast. Give Val his due!
He plays chief hostage negotiator Eli Bernard opposite John Boyega’s
Brian Brown-Easley, a downtrodden Marine veteran who was owed na $892
disability check and resorted to the most drastic of measures to call
attention to the injustice.
“owed na”?
