It's the spook-spookiest season of all! This Saturday, the New Beverly shocks from dusk to dawn with the Third Annual All Night Horror Show. $20 nets 12 hours of terror: Dario Argento's Tenebrae ("a beautiful ballet of deplorable violence and stunning photography"), Lucio Fulci's Gates of Hell ("[a] mastery of atmosphere [... and] straight-up, old school gore"), The Evil ("one of the best haunted house pictures ever"), a sinful secret film, big-bad-buzzard-bomb The Giant Claw, The Breeders ("packed with tasteless scenes [and] an overabundance of female nudity") and killer genie flick The Outing. As if that weren't enough, there's tons of trailers and other goodies between the scares. Last year was standing room only - so get there early, and stay there late! If you're cursed with a curfew (or a case of the sleepies), the Cinefamily features two more Argento films on Thursday evening, and a pajama party Saturday night which pairs Neve Campbell vehicle The Craft with campy musical Teen Witch. Senatorial candidate Christine O'Donnell will be in attendance if her schedule allows. more ›

It's easy to write off Warning!!! Pedophile Released sight unseen as cheap exploitation. Besides all those exclamation marks in the title, there's the convenient release on the heels of Roman Polansky's high-profile arrest for child-rape, an appearance by porn star Joanna Angel & a lead actor coming off of Silent Night, Zombie Night and (ahem) Vaginal Holocaust. Never mind the accompanying Dakota Fanning vehicle Father Xmas (at one point rumored to be Fanning's own child-rape film Hounddog). But the film's trailer tells a different story, of disturbed teens, real tragedy & raw emotion that's more Larry Clark than Larry Cohen. Make up your own mind, and then fawn or fight with the cast and crew at the evening showings. more ›

You know it's a slow week at the DVD counter when a low-brow flick like Sex Drive is the highest profile release. Didn't see it, but read on Ain't It Cool that it was pretty funny. And apparently there are tons of naked chicks in it (link NSFW). Might be worth a rental. Breaking Bad, on the other hand, is definitely worth a rental. His years of doing straight comedy (click it!) have obscured the fact that Bryan Cranston is a damn fine actor. Think Noah Wyle is regretting leaving ER a little bit? I mean, another The Librarian movie? Seriously? more ›

I liked , but I'm glad to see Woody Harrelson working again. Here's to hoping he finds something befitting his unique talents. more ›

Does Depp's Sweeney Todd rip off Dave Vanian? more ›

Her music has been called haunting and timeless, and the new Bat For Lashes single "What's A Girl To Do," certainly falls under those descriptions. If Dario Argento directed music videos, this dark, ethereal promo for "What's A Girl To Do" could be it.... more ›
