HER PRIVATE HELL (2026)
HER PRIVATE HELL (2026), Nicolas Winding Refn, dir.

Phantasmagoric technologies deployed here include: mist, color, illumination, adornment, fashion, exotica, beauty, violence. It is not difficult to imagine a film marshaling these technologies masterfully in order to create a transcendent experience for its beguiled viewers. Is HER PRIVATE HELL that film? Does it produce that experience? Not really. But to its credit it truly doesn't go down like anything else I can think of (including other NWR movies), and at its best it does feel genuinely otherworldly, like a melodrama you might catch on late-night cable if you lived in the Black Lodge.
