Days later, its inhabitants (among them S\u00f4nia Braga) notice that their village has literally vanished from most maps and a UFO-shaped drone starts flying overhead. There are forces that want to expel them from their homes, and soon, in a genre-bending twist, a band of armed mercenaries led by Udo Kier arrive in town picking off the inhabitants one by one. A fierce confrontation takes place when the townspeople turn the tables on the villainous outsiders, banding together by any means necessary to protect and maintain their remote community.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/LKTejyk9ZIA\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>[\/bg_collapse]<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Swallow<\/h3>\n<p><strong>March 6 <\/strong>(limited theatrical and VOD)<\/p>\n<p>Interest: <span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Moderate<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nThis didn&#8217;t initially look like something that would fit with the theme of The Last Theater, but watching the trailer makes me think that it might go to some pretty dark places.

A newly pregnant housewife, she seems content to spend her time tending to an immaculate home and doting on her Ken-doll husband, Richie (Austin Stowell). However, as the pressure to meet her controlling in-laws and husband\u2019s rigid expectations mounts, cracks begin to appear in her carefully created facade. Hunter develops a dangerous habit, and a dark secret from her past seeps out in the form of a disorder called pica &#8211; a condition that has her compulsively swallowing inedible, and oftentimes life-threatening, objects. A provocative and squirm-inducing psychological thriller, SWALLOW follows one woman\u2019s unraveling as she struggles to reclaim independence in the face of an oppressive system by whatever means possible.<\/p>\n<p>Official Site: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ifcfilms.com\/films\/swallow\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.ifcfilms.com\/films\/swallow<\/a><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/auVZKcxV7XQ\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>[\/bg_collapse]<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>The Hunt<\/h3>\n<p><strong>March 13<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Interest: <span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Slight<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nThis looks heavy-handed and maybe not-so-great, but I&#8217;m interested enough to want to see it. I think I&#8217;ll try my best to stay away from any comments about <em>The Hunt<\/em> though. Just a brief perusal of the YouTube comments immediately made me sigh, roll my eyes, and shake my head all at the same time. People are just using it as a platform to complain about politics, as if politics in film is something new. It isn&#8217;t, and the basic plot of The Hunt isn&#8217;t really all that new either.

But the elites\u2019 master plan is about to be derailed because one of The Hunted, Crystal (Betty Gilpin,\u00a0GLOW), knows The Hunters\u2019 game better than they do. She turns the tables on the killers, picking them off, one by one, as she makes her way toward the mysterious woman (two-time Oscar\u00ae winner Hilary Swank) at the center of it all.<\/p>\n<p>Official Site: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.TheHunt.movie\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.TheHunt.movie<\/a><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/sowGYbxTPgU\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>[\/bg_collapse]<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Bloodshot<\/h3>\n<p><strong>March 13<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Interest: <span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Moderate<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nThis is another movie that might not fit perfectly into the theme for The Last Theater, but it looks violent and pulpy enough that I feel okay including it this list.
