It’s Girl Scout cookie season and Ara, Olive, Nikki, and Shannon Elizabeth are vying for coveted title bestowed to the top-selling scout: Cookie Queen. Whether you're into Thin Mints, Samoas, or Tagalongs, you'll enjoy this sweet and sincere celebration of girl power.

Ti West is now best known for his X Trilogy—X, Pearl, and MaXXXine-and, bizarrely, this Thanksgiving he'll drop his Gothic take on A Christmas Carol, Ebenezer. But his breakout was The House of the Devil, and it still rips nearly two decades on. Sometimes lumped into the so-called "mumblegore" microgenre, alongside up-and-comers like Adam Wingard (You're Next, Godzilla Vs. Kong), David Bruckner (The Ritual), and Joe Swanberg (V/H/S), what sets this satanic panic revival film apart is its fully realized throwback swagger (in name it even references arguably the first ever horror film, Georges Méliès' three-minute magic show from 1896).

But what starts out as a cheeky Halloween edition of the similarly titled Crimewatch goes terribly wrong, leaving shocked BBC viewers wondering what to believe.
