We’re in the middle of October and films are beginning to become better. Some of the most compelling pieces are Brad Pitt’s war movie Fury (interested to know if it will be a Monuments Men failure or an Oscar buzz piece of cinema), Mexican director Jorge R.

Directed by Rob Cohen (The Fast and the Furious) and written by Barbara Curry, the film also stars Ryan Guzman, John Corbett and Kristin Chenoweth. Release will be January 23, 2015. Read More

The Conjuring was easily the best horror movie of 2013 and the best horror movie since Insidious back in 2010, all James Wan flicks. The film went on to gross over $137M with only a budget of $20M. With all the fun scares and screams the movie provided, the prequel to The Conjuring is now a reality and we have the first trailer to show you. Get scared, get very scared! Read More
