October typically brings about a horror bonanza for moviegoers, and the final Halloween installment and a new Hellraiser certainly fit the bill. But after the horror hits of September 2022, this month’s theme seems to be simply a deluge of cinema: awards season is heating up, so Cate Blanchett in Tár, Colin Farrell in The Banshees Of Inisherin, and Harry Styles playing a gay cop in My Policeman are in the mix, but there’s also all-but-guaranteed blockbusters like George Clooney and Julia Roberts’ Ticket To Paradise and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s Black Adam. Read on for The A.V. Club’s moviegoing recommendations for October and what you should know about each.

I didn’t think “Pain and Glory” was about the Almodovar’s childhood. Isn’t part of the plot about the director’s standin (played by Antonio Banderas, no child actor) taking up the heroin habit of his old leading man?
Amsterdam seems cool as fuck. My Policeman seems like the more daring choice for the versatile Styles.I thought we all agreed he was, at best, mediocre? Well, those of us who haven’t been paid have agreed.
I just can’t read the title without getting “My Sharona” stuck in my head, but with the word “policeman.”
I’ve had that exact problem with Don’t Worry, Darling and the Garbage song Push It.
OMG ME TOO!And both involve Harry Styles. I blame him for this.
“Slideshow: The Movie” looks epic, a worthy successor to “Coupon: The Movie”
You people are fools if you think this is the “final” Halloween.FOOLS!
Evil dies . . . {sigh} . . . eventually.
The director of School of Good and Evil is named Paul Feig, not Fieg.
“In Todd Field’s Tár, Blanchett plays the fictional Lydia Tár”
now I understand why the Google and Wikipedia searches resulted in nothing… = |
Something about the phrase “the trans Sense8 sensation” feels… gross.
Lol final Halloween.
lol The Rock looks so stupid.
David O’Russell can lick my boots
You lost me at “Start slideshow” but did get a well-deserved LOL from “the final Halloween” from your headline. Final? Ok…
