This weekend offers a mix of great movies: a restored version of a beloved horror film, a unique and often-missed vampire story, and a hilarious comedy that fans of Meet the Parents are sure to enjoy.

The trailer for Regretting You introduces the complicated relationship between longtime friends Morgan (Allison Williams) and Jonah (Dave Franco), alongside the fast-moving romance between Morgan’s daughter, Clara (McKenna Grace), and one of Jonah’s students, Miller (Mason Thames). While Jacob Oller of AV Club gave the film a C-, he notes that its predictable plot points hint at intentional humor, making it more amusingly flawed than outright bad. Oller explains that the movie seems to be aware of its own clichés.

In 2023, James Gunn and Peter Safran announced their initial plans for the DC Universe, which included movies and TV shows like Supergirl, a Swamp Thing film, and the Lanterns series. Since then, the schedule has changed, with new projects such as Clayface and a Superman sequel, titled Man of Tomorrow, being added to the lineup.

Even with a number of big superhero movies coming out this year, none have been huge box office successes, despite some promising reviews for upcoming 2025 releases. It’s important to keep this in context, though.

This year marks the 50th anniversary of The Rocky Horror Picture Show, and several original cast members, like Tim Curry and Nell Campbell, have been discussing its impact. They’ve highlighted how important the film was for people exploring their sexuality, particularly back in 1975 when it was first released.

Originally published in 1979 under the pseudonym Richard Bachman, Stephen King’s The Long Walk was long considered unadaptable for the screen. But a recent film adaptation, directed by Francis Lawrence, has proven critics wrong. The dystopian thriller has become one of the most critically acclaimed King movies in thirty years, and was a financial success, earning $55 million on a $20 million budget.

A new trailer for season 22 of Grey’s Anatomy reveals Jesse Williams will be returning as Jackson Avery. The clip shows a dramatic meeting between Jackson and Meredith Grey, where they disagree about her Alzheimer’s research. You can watch the trailer below.
