The 2018 movies from the Fantasia Film Festival mark the Mother of Movies being part of the remote press after assisting another website in 2017. Looking back over the 2018 movies that were released, there were some great ones. Check the list below and hit up the corresponding movie reviews.
2018 Movies, The Best of The Bunch
Brothers’ Nest An Australian Thriller
One of the highlights of the 2018 movies list at Fantasia Film Festival is Brothers’ Nest. Not just because it’s Australian (like me) but well, ok because it’s Australian.
On a cold morning in the middle of country Victoria, two brothers arrive at the family home intent on murdering their stepfather Roger. Terry and Jeff’s motive is simple – killing their stepdad will render their dying mother’s plan to change her will in his favor redundant.
A staged “suicide” has been meticulously planned but there is one thing the boys didn’t take into account – spending an entire day together. Old grudges, different worldviews, and a generally troubled history will pit these two brothers against each other. Brothers’ Nest is a tragic comedy about family, loyalty, and murder – because after all “blood is thicker than water”. Mother of Movies was granted an interview with Clayton Jacobson.

Tigers Are Not Afraid Released in 2019 to VOD
Estrella is 10 years old, and has three wishes: the first is that her missing mother returns. When the wish is fulfilled but comes with dire consequences, can she use the rest of them?
This film is from Mexico and comes with subtitles in English. Without a doubt, Tigers Are Not Afraid is worth your time. Tigers Are Not Afraid is a title that is an emphatically twisted story. If you like your horror infused with fairy tales then keep an eye out for the female-directed cinematic feast for your eyes.
2018 Movie Releases From Fantasia Film Festival
Microhabitat 2017
Whiskey and cigarettes are the only things to keep her dignity in this city.
What’s more, this South Korean Romantic Comedy took me by surprise with its unique premise. By all means, the story plods along like a sleeping elephant. But how can you not be intrigued by a woman who will give up just about anything to continue to enjoy the things she loves?
Knuckleball 2018
Fantasia Film Festival is the home of all the latest and best horror movies. In Knuckleball, you will be treated to a Home-Alone-style cinematic event. Isolated and targeted on a remotely located farm, 12-year-old Henry finds himself at the center of a maelstrom of terror, and a dark family legacy. Additionally, when his secretive grandfather dies suddenly in the night he is left to defend his life.
With its snowy landscapes and remote location, it had a whiff of Let the Right One (2008.) Both in the scenery and that it features a young dark-haired boy as the lead character. There is lots to like about Knuckleball.
Unfriended: Dark Web 2018
Finally, Unfriended, the sequel many were waiting for. When a 20-something finds a cache of hidden files on his new laptop, he’s thrust into the deep waters of the dark web. Coupled with the filmmakers from the original movie, Unfriended (2014), this surprisingly gripping thriller unravels in real-time, entirely on a computer
screen. A warning for the digital age. This is a must-see movie released in 2018.
