A real aspect of boxing — dangerously fast weight loss — sports films have ignored becomes body horror we have not seen before in #TheCut. The genre’s motivational clichés get twisted, nastily and poignantly.

The #DailyStream becomes the #DailyScream for spooky season! Today: when we ordinary mortals are the monsters. I’m so in love with the vampires of 2014's #OnlyLoversLeftAlive (Tilda Swinton & Tom Hiddleston), with their lofty idealism, their engagement with history, science, art. #Hulu US, #Mubi UK

The #DailyStream becomes the #DailyScream for spooky season! Today: the only vampire feminist spaghetti western. #AGirlWalksHomeAloneAtNight is gorgeously sinister, its creepy cool engorged with suspense and desire. #Kanopy US, #StudiocanalPresents UK

#DailyStream: what is war good for? profit! (say it again). Andrew Niccol’s 2005 satire #LordOfWar follows Nicolas Cage’s arms dealer as, among other crimes, he holds a fire sale of Soviet munitions in 1990s Ukraine. It’s very laugh-until-you-cry. @hbomax US thru 2/28; @NetflixUK
