Dial M For Melissa

Below is a list of 33 movies I've compiled that are to be released this month. Some have impressive casts or big budgets, but most are independent films that struggle for attention. I've watched all the trailers, which playlists are included for each Friday release, and have picked which ones I think will be worth the watch. Take a look at the trailers and comment on which you'd like to see!
