Just watched Witches in the Woods this past weekend - very tense film. Sure many of these don't get major theatrical releases, but they're out there. People whine that there's no original films out there but that's just not true. If all you do is see the biggest, most expensive, heavily marketed films, then that's you're own fault. I enjoy big blockbusters. I also enjoy low-budget films. As long as I'm entertained, I'm happy. And there's plenty out there to entertain you.

Go find it.

Yeah, I know. Its out there and some of it is good and some isnt. I hunt down independent films when I can or things that arent marketed heavily. I actually dont go see much at the theater these days. Not into the MCU avengers stuff at all.

I just think people are generally tired of things being rebooted/reloaded/whatever. It is happening a lot.
