Velvet Buzzsaw

HorrorMysteryThriller113 min

When a stash of paintings by a recently deceased unknown artist surfaces in Los Angeles, the city’s dealers, collectors, and critics rush to turn it into the next big thing — and something in the work starts pushing back. Jake Gyllenhaal is Morf Vandewalt, a feared critic whose verdict can make or wreck a career, while Zawe Ashton’s Josephina is the ambitious assistant who first brings the paintings into the art-world orbit. Rene Russo's gallery owner Rhodora Haze sees a market sensation, but the scramble for money and status draws a supernatural revenge through openings, studios, and private collections.
