Festival season’s in full swing and our friends at the Chattanooga Film Festival 2026 have some treats to share with the announcement of their first fun wave. If you’ve ever been, you know that the fest attracts an island of friendly, passionate misfits and everyone has a terrific time in the dark.

A frustrated catholic schoolgirl accidentally forms a punk band with her “turd” friends and turns her campus upside down in Edie Arnold is a Loser, the contagiously charming, super energetic debut feature from writer/directors Kade Atwood and Megan Rico. Edie (Adi Madden Cabrera) hates her catholic school. The only modicum of joy she gets is fantasizing about rock ‘n’ roll while (barely) playing drums for her school’s terrible church choir. Sharing her frustration is the choir organist, the explosively enthusiastic Frances (McKenna Tuckett). The choir is populated by very pretty girls with very little talent, making their jobs as accompanists torturous. They wile away their school days complaining with their more subdued friends Judith (Niki Rahimi) and Ellen (Alexa Paige), all while the popular girls…

Grace may be done with the Le Domas family, but the family is nowhere near done with her in Ready or Not 2: Here I Come, the long-awaited sequel to 2019’s surprise critical hit directed by Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett. While this iteration of the film manages to retain some of the original’s fun, it finds itself mired in repetition in spite of an expanded world and a host of fun supporting characters. When we last left Grace Le Domas née McCaulley (Samara Weaving), she’d survived a deadly night of hide and seek conducted by the Lo Domas family, board game magnates who’d amassed a fortune thanks to a deal with Mr. Le Bail (aka, The Devil). We open on Grace smoking a well-deserved…
