After all, he is the son of Anthony Perkinsand before he started directing, he made his acting debut in no less than the sequel to Psychosisplaying Norman Bates in a flashback childish.

The Envoy of Evil (Amazon Prime Video)
Guardian is a much more modest film and shows that Perkins is comfortable with any type of budget. Which perhaps brings us to his stimulating beginnings, which he also shot on a shoestring and where he advanced his interest in satanic imagery before Long legs. The envoy of evilstill today, is one of his best films.
Avatar: The Sense of Water (Disney+)
However, the main premiere of the weekend is obviously Avatar: Fire and Ash. James Cameron is about to devastate the box office once again, and if you’re willing to cash in, you might want to refresh the previous installment. It is currently the third highest-grossing film of all time. The first is always the Avatar inaugural.
