In Revue: Ghosts, Rascally Rabbits, and Dutch Resisters

Well, it’s almost Easter. And you know what that means! Time for the annual wash of Easter movies that crowd theatres each year, seizing on the swell of springtime Easter-mania we’ve all grown tired of. Oh, wait, that never happens. And except for movies about Jesus, there really aren’t that many Easter movies. Well, there are now, as Hop, um, hops into theatres. If bushy tailed kiddie movies aren’t for you, then there’s also an okay haunted-house movie by James Wan and some wartime flag-waving out of the Netherlands. Also opening at TIFF Bell Lightbox is Essential Killing, starring Vincent Gallo as a wandering Taliban trooper, which we reviewed during TIFF 2010.
