The Texas Chainsaw Massacre

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre


Rated: R
Based loosely on true events that inspired both the original The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and the Oscar-winning The Silence of the Lambs, the new film will center around a handful of friends who become isolated in the company of a deadly clan of cannibals. The original film not only struck a deep chord with the youth culture of the time but revitalized the horror genre, influencing virtually all of the successful horror franchises that followed it, from New Line's own Nightmare on Elm Street series to The Blair Witch Project.
The Station Agent

The Station Agent


Rated: R
Fin McBride can work up far more passion for trains than people. When Fin's train-store boss dies and leaves him an abandoned depot, Fin hopes solitude will at last be his. He arrives in town a man who does not want to be bothered. But his life unwittingly intersects with the tracks of two others: a grieving painter (Clarkson) who nearly runs Fin over and a lonely, motor-mouthed hot dog vendor (Bobby Cannavale) always hungry for conversation. In spite of himself, and entirely by surprise, Fin becomes swept up in their lives, and even in a romance with the town's sexually provocative librarian (Michelle Williams) -- as he reinvents himself as the catalytic center of a community.
Runaway Jury

Runaway Jury


Rated: PG-13
Set in New Orleans, this is the story of a mysterious man, Nick Easter (Cusack) gets himself not only on the jury of a landmark case against a gun manufacturer, but as the foreman, in an attempt to influence the other jury members to vote a certain way (in partnership with his girlfriend, Marlee, played by Weisz, who tries to swindle the attorneys outside the jury). The case involves the widow of a man killed in an office shooting suing the gun manufacturer of the weapon that was used, under the claim that they knew the store that sold it was not obeying the laws about firearm sales.
Sylvia

Sylvia


Rated: R
This is the true story of the romance and marriage of American poet/novelist Sylvia Plath (Paltrow) and English poet Ted Hughes (Craig). Born in Boston during the Great Depression, Plath first attended Smith College, which was also the setting for her first suicide attempt. Receiving a Fulbright scholarship, she traveled to England to attend Cambridge, where she met a dashing young poet who would win her heart, and ultimately become her husband. Their marriage was rocky, however, and they eventually separated in 1963 when Hughes broke her heart by taking on another lover, Assia Wevill. Crushed, Plath attempted suicide again (by famously sticking her head in her unlit oven), and was successful. Hughes went on to publicly accept responsibility for causing her lethal anguish.
Veronica Guerin

Veronica Guerin


Rated: R
In the mid-1990s, Dublin was nothing short of a war zone, with a few powerful drug lords battling for control. Their most fearsome opponent was not the police but the courageous journalist Veronica Guerin (Blanchett), who covered the crime beat with unmatched intensity. As she investigated and exposed the "pushers," balancing her home and family against her responsibility to her readers and her country, she became a national folk heroine to the people of Ireland; each attempt on her life only galvanized her legend. Her brutal murder in 1996 forced a dramatic revision of Ireland's laws and led to the arrests of the nation's top criminals.
Pieces of April

Pieces of April


Rated: PG-13
April Burns (Holmes) is a 21-year-old wild child with a very big problem. Against her better judgment, she's invited her straightlaced family for Thanksgiving dinner. Her boyfriend, Bobby, wants to help, but she banishes him from the apartment while she attempts to cook the meal. To make matters worse, she then discovers that her oven doesn't work. So, while April is forced to ask her eccentric neighbors for help in cooking her fifteen pound turkey, the Burns Family begins a reluctant journey from suburban Pennsylvania toward New York City's Lower East Side. April's Dad, Jim Burns (Platt) tries to convince the family that the day will be beautiful. Her mom, Joy (Clarkson) has her doubts and freely voices them. April's teenage sister and brother are squeezed between Grandma Dottie and a bag of snacks in the back seat as the Burns' family car hurtles toward Manhattan and what will most likely be certain disaster.

Buffy dressed in pastel skirts and flowery halter tops; Mallory wears red and black vinyl with combat boots. Buffy hung around with two other high school students--geek Xander and witch Willow; Mallory hangs with a mute, telepathic juvenile named Talking Tina, a blue-haired drag queen and explosives expert named Vena Cava, and the head of Commando Operations, Inspector Durand. Buffy took directions from her mentor Giles; Mallory consults the Necronomicon. Buffy was single; Mallory killed her husband with an ax on their wedding night when she found out he was a demon about to sacrifice her. What Buffy and Mallory do have in common is that they fight vampires and other evil creatures.
