- THE LADY IN THE WATER is a loving contemporary bedtime fable with the power to teach the hearts and ignite the imagination of the child that lives in all of us. The tales focuses on Cleveland Heep (PAUL GIAMATTI), who has been quietly trying to disappear among the residents of the Cove apartment complex. However, on the night Cleveland finds someone hiding in modest building, a mysterious young woman named Story (BRYCE DALLAS HOWARD). She has been living in the passageways beneath the buildings swimming pool. Cleveland soon discovers that Story is actually a "narf" - a nymph-like character from an epic bedtime story who is being stalked by vicious creatures determined to prevent her from making the treacherous journey from our world back to hers. Storys unique powers of perception reveal the fates of Clevelands fellow tenants, their destinies tied directly to her own. They must work together to decipher a series of codes that will unlock the key to her freedom. But the window of opportunity for Story to return home is rapidly closing. Cleveland must face the demons that have followed him to the Cove as the other tenants seize the special powers that Story has brought out in them if they hope to succeed in their dangerous quest to save Story and our world. It is a timeless tale of hope that the Brothers Grmm and Hans Christian Anderson would be jealous of. |

Kane is one of the major Superstars in the WWE galaxy, and SEE NO EVIL marks his motion picture debut.
On October 5, 1997, the world first laid its eyes on Kane when he appeared at Bad Blood. Standing in the ring at 7-feet tall and more than 300 pounds, Kane ripped off the cage door during a match between Shawn Michaels and Undertakeróthe first-ever ìHell in the Cellîóand a new era in wrestling was born. The Big Red Monster has been terrorizing opponents and making waves ever since.
During his career, Kane has earned distinction and has continued to climb the ranks. At ìKing of the Ring ë98,î Stone Cold and Kane clashed in a ìFirst Bloodî match, in which the first competitor to make his opponent bleed would win the match. As an added stipulation, Kane promised that if he lost heíd set himself on fire. This match gave Kane a distinct advantage over Stone Cold; since he wore a mask and most of his body was covered by his red costume, it was nearly impossible to confirm if he was bleeding. Despite the relentless, intense assault upon one another by both wrestlers, at the end of the day, Kane was the last man standing. |

{Fearsmag} - Welcome to the Town of Wheelsy! Grant Grant (MICHAEL ROOKER) is a successful businessman, with a beautiful young wife, Starla (ELIZABETH BANKS). Things change for Grant in ways no one could have ever imagined as one humdrum evening Grant hits the local honky-tonk and encounters Brenda Gutierrez (BRENDA JAMES), the younger sister of an old girlfriend, whoís more than willing to listen to Grantís woes. Abandoning their drinks, the pair discovers something slimy in the woods behind the bar. Near the remains of what looks like a meteor, Grant and Brenda find a trail of glistening ooze and a pulsating, unidentifiable mass. Suddenly, the glob comes to life and overtakes Grant, penetrating his body with a pustule-covered tentacle. An alien parasite has infected its unlucky human host, who now must continue to infect others in order to survive.
With each passing day, Grant becomes less and less human, evolving into a bloodthirsty creature driven by a primal need to kill and destroy the uninfected. Unfortunately, Grantís not the only problem. He has begun spawning scores of giant slugs that are out to inoculate any redneck. When Starla realizes what is happening to Grant she turns to her former high school beau, local Chief of Police Bill Pardy (NATHAN FILLION) to help her stop Grant. The pair gathers a makeshift crew of uninfected, including foul-mouthed Mayor Jack MacReady (GREGG HENRY) and smart-ass teen beauty Kylie Strutemyer (TANIA SAULNIER) to help stop the evil plague laying siege to Wheelsy. |
