January 26th 2021
This month has flown by and now our favorite day of the week returns one last time for the month. First up is sci-fi thriller Synchronic from the directors of Spring and The Endless. Next up hitting shelves is Come Play. This one I really enjoyed last year and look forward to adding it to the collection. Christmas season continues in January with a seemingly holiday action thriller, Fatman. Rounding out the week is season two of Doom Patrol, Dark Tower from Vinegar Syndrome, and Shudder exclusive Indonesian horror film Impetigore. What will you buy, rent or skip this week? Let us know in the comments. Until next week!
