Critic Emma Jones tells us why North Macedonian production "DJ Ahmet", starring first-time actors, is a gem of an independent movie and proof that the small country punches well above its weight when it comes to cinema. We also discuss unsettling thriller "The Plague", starring Joel Edgerton, as a group of teenage boys at a swimming camp prompts comparisons with "Lord of The Flies"-style dynamics. Plus, body horror "Saccharine" explores contemporary obsessions with weight loss and body image, and the "Scary Movie" horror spoof franchise returns for a sixth outing, 26 years after its Y2K debut.
