“Fear” D+
A horror novelist takes his girlfriend on vacation to propose, but bobbles it, and when friends come to celebrate her birthday instead, confession of phobias causes fear to start taking hold. The jump scares don't land, the fears themselves are all a bit silly, and it feels like the film is holding back the majority of the time. Starring Joseph Sikora, King Bach and Annie Ilonzeh. Directed by Deon Taylor. (Katie Walsh, Tribune News Service) Rated R for bloody violence and language. At metro theaters. 1 hour, 25 minutes. PARENTS GUIDE: Too scary and violent for kids. OK for mature teens.
“Infinity Pool” D
A tourist and his wife are involved in a vehicular homicide outside of the resort where they are staying but must pay to have themselves cloned so they are executed for their crime. The film is sophomoric, fetishistically violent and hypersexualized. Starring Alexander Skarsgard, Mia Goth and Cleopatra Coleman. Directed by Brandon Cronenberg. (Michael O'sullivan, Washington Post) Rated R for graphic violence, disturbing material, strong sexuality, graphic nudity, drug use and some coarse language.
At metro theaters. 1 hour, 57 minutes. PARENTS GUIDE: This is not for kids or anyone with an aversion to the twisted and perverse!
