Examples:
The Substance is a wild ride that blends body horror with themes of female empowerment, drawing comparisons to films like Society and Death Becomes Her, while offering a modern twist on The Picture of Dorian Gray.
Edgar Wright's Last Night in Soho fuses the conceit of Midnight in Paris with Repulsion, Don't Look Now and the giallo aesthetic of Argento and Bava.
Carry-On offers a holiday action-thriller vibe reminiscent of Die Hard, with Taron Egerton as an everyday man entangled in a tense airport blackmail scenario.
Scorsese's Killers of the Flower Moon is part end-of-the-west western (think Giant) and part marital melodrama like Gaslight and Notorious.
Billy Wilder's Some Like It Hot is a classic comedy that challenged the Hays Code. The film's legacy sees plenty of drag-themed comedies, for better or worse.
Ti West's MaXXXine blends influences from Body Double, Hardcore, and The New York Ripper into a vibrant 1980s Hollywood slasher.
Paul Greengrass' News of the World starring Tom Hanks and Helena Zengel has critics recalling the filmographies of John Wayne and James Stewart, as well as François Truffaut's The Wild Child.
Ingmar Bergman's Persona from 1966 is a seminal psychological drama. What works has it inspired?
Steven Soderberg's Logan Lucky takes the heist film and puts it in NASCAR territory. Comparisons to The Killing are appropriate, but also From Russia With Love and Raising Arizona.
