Synopsis:


"1969. Ted (Zac Efron) is crazy-handsome, smart, charismatic, affectionate. And cautious single mother Liz Kloepfer (Lily Collins) ultimately cannot resist his charms. For her, Ted is a match made in heaven, and she soon falls head over heels in love with the dashing young man. A picture of domestic bliss, the happy couple seems to have it all figured out ... until, out of nowhere, their perfect life is shattered. Ted is arrested and charged with a series of increasingly grisly murders. Concern soon turns to paranoia -- and, as evidence piles up, Liz is forced to consider that the man with whom she shares her life could actually be a psychopath.

This is the story of Ted Bundy, one of the most notorious serial killers of all time."

But KGB officers watch his every move, becoming increasingly suspicious of his behavior and his friendship with the young Parisienne Clara Saint. When they finally confront Nureyev with a shocking demand, he is forced to make a heart-breaking decision, one that may change the course of his life forever and put his family and friends in terrible danger."






Donnybrook (February 15, 2019)

JUMP BACK TO TOP



Director: Tim Sutton

Starring: Jamie Bell, Frank Gillo, Margaret Qualley, James Badge Dale, Pat Healy, James Landry Hebert, Chris Browning

Synopsis:


"Three desperate souls must fight their way out of a dead-end world in this bracing, gut-punching glimpse into America's dark underbelly.

Earl (Jamie Bell) is a struggling ex-marine and father determined to make a better life for his family -- no matter what it takes. Angus (Frank Grillo) is a violent, unhinged drug dealer who leaves a trail of death and destruction in his wake. And Delia (Margaret Qualley) is a haunted woman who will do anything to escape a life of crime she can no longer bear.

In their kill-or-be-killed world, all roads lead to the DONNYBROOK: an illicit backwoods cage match where bare-knuckled fighters brawl for a shot at a $100,000 prize. It's either a last-ditch chance at redemption -- or a death sentence.

Blending unflinching brutality with dreamlike lyricism, director Tim Sutton conjures a mesmerizing, visceral vision of life on the extreme margins."







Out of Blue (March 22, 2019 - U.S. theaters and VOD)

JUMP BACK TO TOP



Director: Carol Morley

Starring: Patricia Clarkson, Jacki Weaver, James Caan, Toby Jones, Mamie Gummer, Aaron Tveit, Yolanda Ross, Jonathan Majors, Devyn Tyler

Synopsis:


"The hunt for a killer draws a detective into an even larger mystery: the nature of the universe itself. Mike Hoolihan (Patricia Clarkson) is an unconventional New Orleans cop investigating the murder of renowned astrophysicist Jennifer Rockwell (Mamie Gummer), a black hole expert found shot to death in her observatory. As Mike tumbles down the rabbit hole of the disturbing, labyrinthine case, she finds herself grappling with increasingly existential questions of quantum mechanics, parallel universes, and exploding stars -- cosmic secrets that may hold the key to unraveling the crime, while throwing into doubt her very understanding of reality. Awash in dreamlike, neo-noir atmosphere, this one-of-a-kind thriller is both a tantalizing whodunnit and a rich, metaphysical mind-bender."

JUMP BACK TO TOP



Director: Peter Hoar (pilot episode)

Starring: Ellen Page, Tom Hopper, Robert Sheehan, Colm Feore, Mary J. Blige, Cameron Britton, Emmy Raver-Lampman, Adam Godley, Aidan Gallagher, David Castaneda, John Magaro, Ashley Madekwe, Kate Walsh

Synopsis:


"In a world where superheroes embrace the darker side of their massive celebrity and fame, THE BOYS centers on a group of vigilantes known informally as "The Boys," who set out to take down corrupt superheroes with no more than their blue-collar grit and a willingness to fight dirty.

THE BOYS is a fun and irreverent take on what happens when superheroes -- who are as popular as celebrities, as influential as politicians and as revered as Gods -- abuse their superpowers rather than use them for good. It's the powerless against the super powerful as The Boys embark on a heroic quest to expose the truth about "The Seven," and Vought -- the multi-billion dollar conglomerate that manages these superheroes."
