My Bloody Valentine 3D marks a welcome return of the standard horror elements of gore and nudity. Say it with me, America: no more PG-13 horror films! Since I am firmly in the 2Pac camp, I will not be spending money to see Notorious. Is it possible for Kevin James to star in something less funny than King of Queens? His new film Paul Blart: Mall Cop would seem to argue, "Yes!" Hotel for Dogs is strictly for kids and fans of dog culture (and pervs who are into Emma Roberts). Chandni Chowk to China is proof that not all foreign films are good.
