Criminally overlooked, this sci-fi tinged thriller packs a visceral punch, some legit scares, narrative twists and a truly original approach to time travel.
Flashback, generic title aside, is a underrated genre treat whose time has come. Recommended.
Bonus points for casting It Follows alum Maika Monroe and Keir Gilchrist. -

The Empty Man 2020
Writer/director David Prior does wonders with Cullen Bunn’s graphic novel, making a real treat for genre fans.
Largely ignored upon release, this one deserves a closer look and a reassessment.
