Black Phone 2
Horror, Thriller (English)
How did the Grabber really return from hell?
Sun, November 2 2025
When hell itself is unable to stop its villain from calling collect, you know a horror franchise just got even more interesting. The Grabber calls back from the afterlife this time, and now he is even more dangerous. Did you think Ethan Hawke’s mask and mallet-clad serial killer was terrifying? Wait till you see what he can do now that he’s dead. This is a callback that we didn’t particularly want addressed, but here we are. Let’s dive into Black Phone 2 story and ending, both of which are explained here.

Diés Iraé
Horror, Thriller (Malayalam)
Who is haunting Rohan’s house & what do anklets mean?
Sun, November 2 2025
Rahul Sadasivan’s newest horror film, Dies Irae, portrays itself as more than just a haunted house exercise. In addition to jump scares and well-executed visual fright-craft, the title Dies Irae (Latin for “Day of Wrath”) alludes to a reckoning, something ominous. Let’s dive into the story of the Dies Irae movie and ending, explained here. Our hero is called Rohan, and he is the rich-brat-mega-mansion-owner type. Played by actor and Mohanlal‘s son Pranav Mohanlal, he has the house, the money, the parties, the friends. He also has a casual indifference toward those he considers inferior to him, which is pretty much everyone.

Good Boy
Horror, Thriller (English)
Who really was the dark figure haunting Todd and Indy?
Fri, October 31 2025
Ever found yourself watching a horror movie and thinking: “Man, the dog knows something we don’t”? If so, then the Good Boy horror movie is tailor-made for you. Helmed by debutant Ben Leonberg, it’s a genuinely fresh spin on the genre. It is told from a narrator who barks (well, mostly whines) instead of speaking and wags instead of walking away. (And yes, your dog will now stare at random corners for entirely justified reasons.) Let’s dive into the Good Boy horror movie story and ending, which are both explained here.

The Diplomat S03
Drama, War & Politics (English)
Who really stole the doomsday weapon Poseidon?
Fri, October 17 2025
It’s fitting that The Diplomat on Netflix ends its third season not with an explosion, but with something quieter, and infinitely more dangerous. A silence loaded with betrayal. For a show built on diplomatic finesse and political tension, The Diplomat season 3 brings its most devastating twist yet: the realisation that even love, loyalty, and diplomacy are just different dialects of manipulation. Let’s dive into The Diplomat season 3 story and ending, explained here, cast, and more.

Bhagwat Chapter One: Raakshas
Thriller (Hindi)
What really happened to the missing girls?
Fri, October 17 2025
Some tales require more than telling. They require you to feel them. Bhagwat Chapter 1: Raakshas begins with that very invitation. And from the very first frame, the film establishes the tone of a tale that is as disturbing as it is real. Let’s dive into Bhagwat Chapter 1: Raakshas ending, which is explained here, as well as its release date, cast, a brief review, and more. Before you proceed, make sure you have seen the movie, as this piece contains deep spoilers for the show. So watch the movie first, and then come back. Here’s your spoiler alert!

Lord Curzon Ki Haveli
Comedy, Thriller (Hindi)
Who was in the trunk all along?
Sat, October 11 2025
If you’ve ever stared at old British buildings from the colonial era that are scattered throughout hill stations such as Shimla and Mussoorie, and thought, “I bet something deeply absurd and faintly colonial is going on in there,” then Lord Curzon Ki Haveli exists to confirm your suspicions. Within minutes of the movie, we are in the territory of posh dread and psychological warfare, except this time, the ghosts are postcolonial. A mystery movie laced with dark comedy, it throws four Indians into an English countryside dinner party and watches them unravel.

Kantara A Legend: Chapter 1
Action, Thriller (Kannada)
What happens to Berme in the end?
Mon, October 6 2025
There are films that end with closure, films that end with questions. And then there’s Kantara: Chapter 1, which ends with a divine tiger, a scheming princess, a possessed king, and Rishab Shetty turning into a ball of fire before shapeshifting into a goddess’s wrath. Yes, subtlety packed its bags early in this movie. And chances are you walked out of the theatre blinking and muttering, “Wait, what just happened?”

Homebound
Drama (Hindi)
Do Chandan and Shoaib survive their long trek back home?
Fri, September 26 2025
It has been ten years since Neeraj Ghaywan blessed us film buffs with Masaan. A decade later, here we are. And Ghaywan is back with another film. This, too, feels like a long time coming. Let’s explore the Homebound movie, its story, and its ending, which are explained here.
