That idiosyncratic nature plays out in the look of the sets and costumes, the colour palette and lighting, the dialogue and performance of the actors and the whimsical nature of the stories they tell. Seldom laugh-out-loud funny, the humour is too dexterous for that, this is the kind of mirth that builds most in remembrance.

Trying to reduce Asteroid City to a mere synopsis does it a disservice as it is a work filled with subtext, subversion and subliminal cues that emerge in retrospection. Anderson’s movies almost always grow in stature the more you think about them. They are uniquely memorable.

It’s those memories that power avid fan’s desire to have so many of his works on high rotation at home. Asteroid City will have the power to be either the most or least favourite of his films and that distinction will only come into focus after many visits to his deep well of weirdness.

From the beautiful mind of Wes Anderson, starring an all-star cast comes ASTEROID CITY, a wonderfully colourful and hilarious cosmic tale about a family and their travel to a remote American town aptly titled Asteroid City.

The itinerary of a Junior Stargazer/Space Cadet convention (organized to bring together students and parents from across the country for fellowship and scholarly competition) is spectacularly disrupted by world-changing events.

“…it’s beautiful to look at, surreal, nostalgic and funny in a weird, distanced way.” – San Francisco Chronicle

“Wes Anderson returns with one of his most dazzling, rich and playfully self-reflexive films to date.” – Little White Lies

“Asteroid City, the latest from Wes Anderson, is a true achievement from one of America’s most unique cinematic voices.” – Chicago Reader

Minutes in and the first blonde is dispensed with in a most bloody fashion. Playing the first hand dealt is a red herring but this accelerated level of energy helps to grab the audience’s attention. As the story develops there is more than a slight reliance on knowing the broad strokes of the franchise.

The Munch masked marauder is portrayed as an even more relentless killer and this fills every scene with a strong sense of danger. And in traditional slasher film shortcomings, no one ever carries out the much needed double tap, so things constantly escalate.

Paying dividends for fans of the first five, Scream VI is a thrill ride that is packed with self-referential easter eggs and gratuitous murders. It’s also peppered with twists a plenty (some you’ll see from a mile away and some not). The final resolution is so over the top, it’s a perfect way to make a memorable chapter pause for the oversaturated horror fan.
