A24's Sing Sing Coming To Max In March (Feb. 13)

["'Sing Sing' follows Divine G (Domingo), who while imprisoned at Sing
Sing for a crime he didn’t commit, finds purpose by acting in a theatre
group alongside other incarcerated men, including a wary newcomer
(Clarence Maclin)."]

 

Oh, good Lord! And A24 to boot!!

 I thought Showtime bought all their output as cheap programming.
 

A24's Heretic Sets Max Premiere Date (Feb. 12)

 

https://deadline.com/2025/02/heretic-streaming-premiere-date-max-1236286843/

 

["In 'Heretic,' two young missionaries (Sophie Thatcher and Chloe East)
from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are forced to prove their faith when they knock on the wrong door and are greeted by a
diabolical Mr. Reed (Hugh Grant), becoming ensnared in his deadly game
of cat-and-mouse. "]

 

March 7.

 

Cool. Been looking forward to this one (even though Sophie Thatcher is
another one who has ruined her looks with cosmetic surgery - and too bad
too, in someone so young...).

 Weren't you just complaining about A24?

I have layers!!  :p
Ian  (Real answer: I'm making an exception for "Heretic" as I think it might be promising, despite A24's involvement. Also, A24's "Bodies Bodies Bodies" was actually mostly OK, as was the "X/Maxine" trilogy. IOW, A24 has an OK record with "horror"...)
