Tomato

Nick Schager

Splat
C

When a Stranger Calls (1979)

"Aggravatingly devoid of suspense."

Nick Schager

Splat
C+

"A mature, striking exploration of the way that kids feel."

Nick Schager

Splat
C-

White Chicks (2004)

Tomato
A

The White Diamond (2005)

"A superb portrait of the dangers as well as euphoria that can come from chasing one's most treasured dreams."

Nick Schager

Splat
C+

Nick Schager

Splat

Splat
D+

Wonderland (2003)

"Unwarrantedly interested in B-list celebrity-gone-to-seed."

Nick Schager

Tomato
B+

The Woods (2006)

"One of the most polished and inventive horror flicks of the still-ongoing year, a synthesis of classical supernatural and sexualized imagery that expands upon, rather than simply regurgitates, its celebrated predecessors."

Nick Schager

Splat
C+

Wristcutters: A Love Story (2007)

"Fugit ably keeps this superficially controversial, and yet actually rather conventional, film from devolving into obnoxious oddness."
