This Satirical Thriller
Director Coralie Fargeat's unflinching critique tackles the demanding standards for female beauty along with the perceived horrors of advancing years.

Presence Film
The acclaimed director tests his directorial skills through this clever ghostly tale filmed completely from the viewpoint of the phantom. When a household featuring mother Rebekah and troubled teenage daughter Chloe settles into their fresh home, the camera – representing the ghost – follows them around.

This Creepy Thriller
The director's locked-room horror holds up well despite the lack of a continuation. Set in the late 70s in Denver, a series of disappearances has left the youth anxious. When Finney is taken by the villain and imprisoned in a basement, he anticipates a terrible outcome. Yet the old telephone in the room repeatedly calls, with spooky callers giving advice, as the prophetic visions of Gwen, his sister might rescue him. A genuinely scary movie. This Saturday, 10.50pm, on Film4
The Eyes of Tammy Faye
In the battle between faith and wealth, it's a knockout win for Mammon in Showalter's wonderfully garish biopic of the disgraced TV preacher plus her lawbreaking partner. The actor plays the corrupt Bakker, who proclaims early on, “God does not want us to be poor,”. Both individuals commence monetising the American public's Christian beliefs. It's a riot of tacky decor, bad makeup and bad faith, yet Jessica Chastain manages to present Tammy Faye in a likable light. Tuesday 14 October, early morning, Film4
