In 2015, writer/director George Miller returned to the world of Mad Max thirty years after the last film. Entitled Mad Max: Fury Road, Tom Hardy replaced Mel Gibson in the role of Max Rockatansky. However, the character who really caught people’s attention was Imperator Furiosa (Charlize Theron). Now, nine years after Fury Road, we’ve got her origin story in Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga.

The Last Stop in Yuma County primarily takes place at the last stop in Yuma County—surprising, I know. More specifically, the film takes place in the ’70s at a rest stop whose filling station has run out of gas, leaving travelers stranded at the diner next door. The first patron we meet is a knife salesman (Jim Cummings) who is served by Charlotte (Jocelin Donahue), the diner’s sole worker. Several more patrons quickly join them, and here’s a brief rundown.

I Saw The TV Glow is something of a conundrum for me. It’s a movie that I loved and have to talk about. Except, I want to say it was John Squires, Editor-In-Chief at Bloody Disgusting, who recommended going into the movie completely blind, and I’m glad I did. My problem is that it’s a movie that’s hard to analyze without spoiling the hell out of it. So, I’d say watch the film first, then read this review. If you do that, then go ahead and skip the next section.

Every season of the show thus far has seen a location change, and this time, Chucky (Brad Dourif) has infiltrated the White House. The season premiere introduces us to the first family. There’s President James Collins (Devon Sawa), who somehow got elected as an independent, and First Lady Charlotte (Lara Jean Chorostecki), whose moral compass isn’t quite as straight as her husband’s. There’s also Grant (Jackson Kelly), a moody teenager, and Henry (Callum Vinson), Chucky’s new owner.

Clare (Maika Monroe) is a rideshare driver and aspiring screenwriter who recently moved to LA from Wamega, Kansas. One night, she picks up a stranger with the profile name Carl E. (Dane DeHaan), though the way he points out that’s an anagram of Clare makes it pretty obvious that’s an alias. And thus begins a cat and mouse game which plays out over the course of 12 hours.

Dark Harvest, based on the novel of the same name by Norman Partridge, is about a creature that rises out of the cornfields every Halloween. While the creature has several nicknames, it’s primarily referred to as the October Boy in the novel. In the film, it’s called Sawtooth Jack, probably because that sounds a lot cooler. Its body is also much more humanoid, I’m guessing because that’s easier to pull off with a man in a suit.

One winter day, Charlotte (Alyla Browne) discovers what appears to be an ordinary spider in her apartment building, who she catches and names Sting. Except, in actuality, Sting is from outer space and just looks like a spider. So, as a result, she isn’t hampered by that pesky square-cube law that prevents Earth spiders from getting any bigger than they are, less they be suffocated by the weight of their own exoskeletons.
