In the not-LGBT but sort of queer category, director-writer Zoé Wittock s Jumbo, Jeanne (Noémie Merlant) starts her first day working at a small amusement park set near a French town s waterfall. This is convenient, since she s been visiting the park since childhood, tinkers with small light sculptures made from bicycle wheels and spare parts. She also has a sort of fetish for the rides, particularly the Move It, a swirling light-blinking machine which she nicknames Jumbo. She has no interest in the mild flirtations from Marc (Bastien Bouillon), her new male boss, despite her free-spirited divorced mother (Emmanuelle Bercot) goading her into dating. One night, as she performs her custodial duties, Jumbo comes to life, of sorts, like a bolted-down Transformer.

Her coming out does not go well, and until the ending, events take a dark then uplifting, if not odd turn. ....

With a raging storm outside, there’s plenty of dramatic, flashing lightning and shadowy interiors to keep the suspense alive in the short running time. When Zoe’s estranged friend Angela (Bree Desborough) unexpectedly arrives at her doorstep, it trades loud jump scares for the stewing fear of a lingering presence outside. ....
Dark Whispers Vol. 1, 2019. Directed by Megan Riakos, Angie Black, Kaitlin Tinker, Isabel Peppard, Briony Kidd, Jub Clerc, Marion Pilowsky, Katrina Irawati Graham, Lucy Gouldthorpe, Madeleine Purdy and Janine Hewitt. Starring Asher Keddie, Anthony LaPaglia, Andrea Demetriades and Bree Desborough. SYNOPSIS: A series of horror tales, linked together via their presence in a mysterious book. Australia is proving to be a fertile ground for horror filmmakers in recent years – and particularly for women working in the genre. Jennifer Kent’s The Babadook is already a bona fide modern classic of horror and Natalie Erika James’s Relic – released last year – seems to be on a similar trajectory. It’s Australia’s female horror talent which gets to step into the spotlight for the anthology ....
