You want to see something Really scary?
It’s 1968 in America. Change is blowing in the wind…but seemingly far removed from the unrest in the cities is the small town of Mill Valley where for generations, the shadow of the Bellows family has loomed large. It is in their mansion on the edge of town that Sarah, a young girl with horrible secrets, turned her tortured life into a series of scary stories, written in a book that has transcended time—stories that have a way of becoming all too real for a group of teenagers who discover Sarah’s terrifying home.
Oh yeah – count us in!
The film is directed by André Øvredal (2010 Norwegian dark fantasy film Troll Hunter).

“Do you want to see a haunted house.” I’m going to with No! on this one.
CBS Films, Lionsgate and eOne has released a brand new trailer for Scary Stories To Tell In The Dark. I can’t wait for this one!
It’s from the director of the 2010 Norwegian dark fantasy film Troll Hunter, André Øvredal.
In his review Travis Keune wrote, “Director Andre Ovredal wisely keeps keep the creatures hidden in the shadows, providing only quick glimpses, mostly through night-vision cameras. It’s a smart technique and really the only way this movie would work since these monsters are so goofy-looking (think Where the Wild Things Are crossed with Ed ‘Big Daddy’ Roth) that lingering on them would dilute the substantial tension that’s generated. The concept is so preposterous and the creature design so loony-tunes that it’s somewhat miraculous what Ovredal has pulled off here...

This season's most intense television scenes had to be tenderly crafted in the editing room. Whether it was the pivotal This Is Us episode that finally revealed the death at the center of the NBC drama's story, the chilling opening moments of The Handmaid's Tale's second season or the final episode of The Looming Tower that took viewers back to 9/11, each of these scenes required a sensitive touch when cutting the footage together in order to send viewers on the right emotional journey.

"Girls, I know this must feel very strange," the woman in the black robe says. She is older, stern, severe, authoritarian; she's addressing a group women seated in a circle, all of whom have been stripped of their reproductive rights, forcibly separated from their families and remanded to sexual slavery. "But ordinary is just what you're used to," she continues. "This might not seem ordinary to you right now. But, after a time, it will. This will become ordinary."

There are certain events from history that inherently lend themselves to being depicted on the movie screen. One such event is the destruction of the ancient Roman city of Pompeii following the eruption of the volcano Mount Vesuvius in 79 Ad. Pompeii has already been used as the setting of no less than nine films, many of them based on or inspired by Edward Bulwer-Lytton’s 1834 novel The Last Days of Pompeii. Now, the famous disaster is being brought to the screen again in a new film by director/writer/producer Paul W. S. Anderson, simply titled Pompeii. While Pompeii manages to be kind of fun, it remains pretty dumb, definitely cheesy, and not something you should rush out to see.
In the year 79 Ad, Milo (Kit Harington) is a Celtic slave who has been gaining fame for his prowess as a gladiator. When Milo and his fellow slaves are taken...

Concluding Starlog’s conversation with Shane Acker, the 9 director picks his favorite mechanical menace in the film, describes the process of creating sympathetic CG rag doll heroes and talks about 2-D vs. 3-D animation. Need to catch up first? Check here for Part I and here for Part II.
If you’ve seen the trailer for 9 (which premieres next week, 9/9/09), you know that the movie contains a number of mechanical and biomechanical monstrosities, and of all of them, Acker’s favorite was “the baby doll one, the Seamstress. That was in the first iteration of the short that I wanted to make, but I had to cut it for the sake of getting the film done. I was really happy that we were finally able to bring that creature to life and witness it. It’s a very unique and complex character, and we had lots of fun animating it.

Blu-Ray Rating: 3.5/5.0 Chicago – Rainn Wilson made the jump from supporting player on NBC’s “The Office” to leading comedy star in the so-so “The Rocker,” a film with a few inspired moments, some great cameos, and talented young actors, but the timing is a bit off with this routine. The Blu-Ray release goes a long way in redeeming the set list, but the entire show is still a little mediocre.
“The Rocker” is a frustrating comedy. Everything that works - Wilson’s fearless performance, great appearances from comedians like Jane Lynch, Will Arnett, Jeff Garlin, and Jason Sudeikis, likable young stars - is usually followed by something that just doesn’t click. There are some jokes in “The Rocker” that hit the floor with the thud of a bass drum. It may make a satisfying rental for some, but with the pedigree of the people involved, this super-band should have been better.
