Eight years after It Follows, David Robert Mitchell returns with a big-budget dinosaur thriller produced by JJ Abrams that plants prehistoric predators in a 1980s suburb. The End of Oak Street follows the struggling Platt family as their neighborhood is thrown back to the Cretaceous.
What starts as a familiar mashup of Steven Spielberg’s films quickly turns brutal and strange. Beneath the carnage is a film about failing marriages, suburban illusions, and how we try to board up chaos instead of facing it.
