Friday the 13th

Directed by: Marcus Nispel
Starring: Jared Padaleckie (TV’s Supernatural), Danielle Panabaker, Amanda Righetti, Travis Van Winkle (Transformers)
From Platinum Dunes and director Marcus Nispel (The Texas Chainsaw Massacre) comes a re-imagining of the classic horror film Friday the 13th. Searching for his missing sister, Clay heads up to the eerie woods of legendary Crystal Lake, where he stumbles on the creaky remains of rotting old cabins that lie in wait behind moss-covered trees. And that’s not the only thing hiding under the brush. Against the advice of police and cautions from the locals, Clay pursues what few leads he has, with the help of a young woman he meets among a group of college kids up for an all-thrills weekend. But they are about to find much more than they bargained for. Little do they know, they’ve entered the domain of one of the most terrifying specters in American film history;the infamous killer who haunts Crystal Lake, armed with a razor-sharp machete… Jason Voorhees.

The Uninvited

Directed by: Thomas Guard, Charles Guard
Starring: Elizabeth Banks, David Strathairn, Arielle Kebbel, Emily Browning
In the haunting suspense thriller The Uninvited; a deadly battle of wills begins when Anna (Emily Browning) returns from a psychiatric facility and investigates the circumstances surrounding her mother’s suspicious and untimely death. While Anna recuperates from the tragedy, her father (David Strathairn) becomes engaged to Rachel (Elizabeth Banks), her mother’s former nurse, and moves her into their home. Anna’s dismay quickly turns to horror when she is visited by her mother’s ghost — crying out for revenge and pointing an accusing finger at Rachel. When her father refuses to heed their warnings, Anna and her sister, Alex (Arielle Kebbel), look into Rachel’s questionable past. But Anna may be underestimating Rachel; perhaps fatally so.
