A diverse lineup hits screens across Belgium, from Tarantino's epic 'Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair' to the hilarious 'Jim Queen' and the terrifying 'Evil Dead Burn'. Our top picks: the ultimate revenge saga, a queer comedy gem, and a fresh spin on zombie horror.
Welcome to another week of cinematic adventures in Belgium! From a four-hour vengeance epic to a virus that turns gay men straight, our screens are bursting with variety. Let's dive into the highlights.
Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair (8.1/10) – The Bride’s bloody quest for revenge returns in its director’s cut, combining both volumes into one seamless, 4+ hour experience. Did you know? This version swaps the anime sequence for a live-action one, and adds a new scene with Bill explaining his motives. A must for Tarantino fans.
Jim Queen (8/10) – A hilarious and heartfelt animated comedy about a gym-obsessed gay man in Paris who must save his community from a virus that turns gay men straight. Behind the scenes: the voice cast includes actual French drag queens, lending authenticity to the campy dialogue. A standout for its bold premise and infectious energy.
Evil Dead Burn (8/10) – Horror takes a marital twist: a widow seeks comfort with her in-laws, only to see them turn into deadites. The film cleverly plays on wedding vows – “till death do us part” – as she discovers her own dark past. Did you know? The director used practical effects for 90% of the gore, evoking the original Evil Dead’s tactile terror.
Moana (7.9/10) – The Ocean’s call is back! A re-release of the beloved Disney adventure, perfect for family outings. Fun fact: the animators studied real Samoan dance to perfect Moana’s movements.
The Furious (7.76/10) – A Chinese father’s relentless hunt for his kidnapped daughter. Expect John Wick-style action with a heart of gold.
Toy Story 5 (7.42/10) – Bonnie’s tablet obsession threatens the toys’ jobs. A clever commentary on screen time.
Wasteman (7.21/10) – A parolee’s fresh start is complicated by a dangerous cellmate. Gritty and tense.
Tuner (7.15/10) – A piano tuner discovers he’s a natural safecracker. A quirky crime drama.
DJ Ahmet (7.03/10) – A Macedonian teen finds escape in music. Beautifully shot in remote villages.
Masters of the Universe (6.98/10) – Prince Adam returns to a shattered Eternia. Nostalgia-fueled but uneven.
Our top picks: Dive into the epic Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair for a full day of vengeance, laugh out loud with Jim Queen for a queer twist on superhero tropes, and scream with Evil Dead Burn for a fresh take on zombie horror. Enjoy the show!
