Dark Shadows:
From the wonderfully warped imagination of Tim Burton comes the story of
Barnabas Collins (Johnny Depp), a dashing aristocrat who is turned into
a vampire by a jilted lover and entombed for two centuries. Emerging
from his coffin into the world of 1972, he returns to his once-majestic
home, only to the few dysfunctional descendants of the Collins family
who remain. Determined to return his family name to its former glory,
Barnabas is thwarted at every turn by his former lover - the seductive
witch Angelique (Eva Green) - in this wildly imaginative" (Sam
Hallenbeck, NBC-TV) adventure.
The Hole:
From visionary director Joe Dante comes a suspense thriller that
explores the fears and secrets buried deep in the human mind. Life
couldn't possibly get worse, or so thought 17 year old Dane (Chris
Massoglia) and his 10 year old brother Lucas (Nathan Gamble),
when their single mother Susan (Teri Polo) uproots them from New York
City to the sleepy little town of Bensonville. For Dane the only
exciting thing about their new town is the beautiful girl next door,
Julie (Haley Bennett). With Susan spending more and more time at work,
Dane and Lucas are left unattended to explore the depths of their eerie
new residence. With Dane paying more attention to Julie, he has far less
time and patience for his little brother. But then everything changes
when they find a sinister bottomless hole under a locked trap door in
the basement. As the brothers experiment with the hole they realize that
the cold pit goes on forever. They drop a nail and never hear it hit
bottom. They lower a flashlight and a video camera and they get consumed
by the darkness. Hoping for some answers about the house's past, Dane
and Lucas bring Julie in on their new discovery. When the hole is
exposed, evil is unleashed. With strange shadows lurking around every
corner and past nightmares coming to life, the trio will have to come
face to face their darkest fears to put an end to THE HOLE.
Peace, Love & Misunderstanding:
When her husband tells her he wants a divorce,
devastated Manhattan lawyer Diane (Catherine Keener, The 40 Year Old
Virgin, Being John Malkovich) heads upstate with her two teens to
Woodstock to stay with her estranged flower-child mother (Jane Fonda).
In this charming village, Diane and her city kids get a new perspective
on life: poetry-reading daughter Zoe (breakout star Elizabeth Olsen of
Martha Marcy May Marlene) becomes interested in a sensitive young
butcher Chace Crawford, (Gossip Girl), nerdy son Jake (Nat Wolff, The
Naked Brothers Band) finds material for his first film project, and
Diane herself grows close to a handsome carpenter/singer (Jeffrey Dean
Morgan, Magic City). Most importantly, Diane finally gets the chance to
end the ancient war with the mother she has not seen for decades.
Legendary director Bruce Beresford (Tender Mercies, Driving Miss Daisy)
creates a touching and poignant comedy with PEACE, LOVE &
MISUNDERSTANDING, which proves once and for all that having an old soul
doesn't mean you can't be a free spirit.
