Zach Cregger’s Weapons isn’t just the best film of the year—it’s a horror masterpiece. Imagine Prisoners colliding with Magnolia, laced with a dash of the Coens’ absurdist humor, and you’re still not prepared for what this film delivers.

This is a BRILLIANT, razor-sharp commentary on the attitudes and institutions that emerge in the aftermath of a communal tragedy. Cregger skewers the destructive sensationalism of our news cycles, our obsession with knowing WHY, and our compulsive need to jump to blame—while hyper-fixating on the irrelevant. The result? We stall progress, allowing the objectively abnormal to quietly become... normal.

Told through a chilling masterclass in suspense and POV storytelling, Weapons forces us to confront a society with dwindling empathy—one disturbingly willing to tolerate dehumanizing acts as long as it’s packaged neatly enough to scroll past. I am obsessed. This is a film I won’t be able to shake for a long, long time.
