Lewis Black: Thanks For Risking Your Life (2020)
Lewis Black, heir to the George Carlin throne of the comedy rant, performed this set just days after the rest of America shut down (the show was allowed to go on because it was in a sovereign Native American venue), so his commentary covers our current Corona-induced anxiety and his own hilarious frustration over The-Orange-One-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
