Chloë Grace Moretz plays a teenage girl sent to a 1990s gay conversion therapy camp in this serious-minded film from Desiree Akhavan

This sensitive teen drama with Ansel Elgort and Chloë Grace Moretz turns into an unlikely, but engaging, murder mystery

Sorority sisters take on the family next door in this gross-out, faux-feminist comedy

Humanity’s greatest weapon against an alien invasion? Love. Love conquers all.

Dark Places is a decent little thriller, and writer-director Gilles Paquet-Brenner has a keen sense for the Southern Gothic atmosphere

Denzel Washington reverts to Man on Fire ass-kicking mode in this violent revenge film
