Prefer your classic literature with a twist? Then this Austen re-imaging may be for you. Based on the parody book of the same name, this thriller stars Lily James, Matt Smith, and Sam Riley. As is often the case, the book is better than the movie, but who doesn’t want to see beloved 18th century women brutally destroy the undead?
