Fantasia ’25 Movie Review: “HOLD THE FORT” has fun with monsters
It feels like a valentine to the genre as a whole, and has a bit of fun with all of its attendant tropes and creatures.

The filmmakers keep the twists and surprises coming, taking the audience into unexpected places that are both unsettlingly strange and blackly humorous.
On every level, it evinces a high level of care and thought, meshing personal pain with supernatural terror to conjure up something resonant and chilling.
The Adams Family’s latest was one of several fright films to be honored.
It’s a combination of paranoid thrills and dark comedy.
