I have been given such an opportunity to be sent so many movies over the past few months, either by private links or screeners or DVDs/Blu Rays. I have not been a very good reviewer at my end so to make up for that somewhat I will share with you what I have been sent--NO, not the links etc but the information on the films and their release dates and platforms they are available in.
I have provided Trailers with each of the films to give you an idea of what they look like.
I will do another one of these soon from other studios

The first “must see” (Film Threat) independent movie of the year, The Drama Club arrives on VOD this June from Leomark Studios.
“Bringing to mind The Big Chill" (Indie Film Minute), The Drama Club features a solid ensemble cast in the story of a high school drama club that catch up twenty-years on.
It’s been twenty years since they met in their high school drama club, but the teenage romances, egos, and quarrels are lying just beneath the surface waiting to prove themselves once again. Touching on topics from male/female double standards, to politics, to LGBTQ and race relations, the group grows more this weekend than in the last two decades. In a twisted maze of ex-lovers, old grudges, and new spouses, the friends are thrown down a rabbit hole of alcohol-fueled bad decisions.
This June, “quality indie cinema” (The Independent Critic) can be found within the frames of writer-director Joe McClean’s The Drama Club, available 6/13 on VOD.
