Weekly Film Picks Span Horror, Austen, Columbus Festival

This week’s movie offerings include “Whalefall,” a survival thriller about a diver trapped inside a sperm whale with dwindling oxygen, alongside Jane Austen’s “Sense and Sensibility,” “You Can See Everything” and Columbus’s Nightmares Film Festival. Coverage describes “Whalefall” as a claustrophobic, high-stakes ordeal that combines bodily horror and environmental danger with the diver’s emotional reckoning over his father. The film is also part of a broader wave of thrillers arriving in South Korea, whose stories explore confinement and contemporary anxieties. For viewers seeking similar ticking-clock survival tension, suggested films include “127 Hours,” “Buried” and “The Dive.”
