Water man will not be for everyone. More drama than pure fantasy, this family-friendly adventure deals with themes of grief, loss and friendship. Eleven-year-old Gunner and his family move to a new town, where the bookworm must contend not only with a lack of friends, but also with a harsh parent suffering from leukemia. His escape takes him to a fairytale forest, where his imagination comes alive. An adventurous story that deals with bigger issues.

This dark fantasy drama comes from Spanish director Jay Bayona, who has since branched out into massive franchises including Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom and the first two installments of Prime Video’s upcoming Lord of the Rings series. But perhaps his best work focuses on coming-of-age stories. A Monster Calls follows a troubled young boy who encounters a tree that promises to tell him three stories, as long as Connor tells him one in return. The Monster Calls is rooted in darker themes, one of which is death.

Crossing genres, Closet Monster uses its fantasy elements to open a fresh and moving window into adulthood. Traumatized by witnessing a homophobic attack, teenager Oscar must grapple with his feelings for Wilder. Be warned, Closet Monster incorporates levels of David Cronenberg’s body horror into its larger picture of internalized homophobia. With a great performance by Connor Jessup, Monster in the Closet is an indie gem.

It’s not Tim Burton’s best work, but Dark Shadows offers another chance to admire the director’s trademark gothic visual style. Based on the series of the same name, the horror-comedy follows a wealthy playboy who unwisely breaks the heart of a witch (Eva Greene). He turns her into a vampire and buries her alive. Two centuries later, Barnabas (Johnny Depp) emerges and discovers the world of the 70s while also harboring a taste for revenge. Although the characters and plot can be impressively fleshed out, Dark Shadows has a stellar cast including Michelle Pfeiffer and Helena Bonham Carter. Plus, it features Barnabas’ hilarious reactions to 70s pop culture.

Nicole Kidman, Daniel Craig and Eva Green make up the rich cast.

Centuries-old warriors on a mission of vengeance bring progressive heroes and smooth combat, though it doesn’t shy away from any clichés.
Netflix
