The Devil And Daniel Webster -- Jabez Stone (Alec Baldwin) is a desperate, down on his luck writer who reaches rock bottom when his close friend, Julius Jensen (Dan Aykroyd), finds success. Thwarted in his attempts to get his work published, he meets a beautiful stranger (Jennifer Love Hewitt) who offers him a chance at fame and fortune in exchange for his soul. Stone, having lost faith in himself, agrees to the offer. After accepting the deal Jabez is quickly lavished with all he had ever dreamed of. A book deal, money, women, notoriety, Stone now had it all. However, despite the success, he is losing the friendship, respect and trust of those around him. Coming to the realization that he didn't quite get everything he bargained for, Stone begs the Devil to release him from their deal. When the Devil scoffs he turns to famed orator Daniel Webster (Anthony Hopkins). The two conclude that they should take the battle to court with Webster defending Stone in an otherworldly trial against the Devil in the ultimate battle of wits in a fight over the fate of Stone's soul. Circle of Pain -- Trailer for this fighting drama Biosphere Trailer -- Three young scientists have been recruited by the government and have spent most of their lives living and working isolated in a Biosphere in the middle of the Arizona desert. However, they all question the reason why they cannot remember anything about their childhood. Finding more and more discrepancies in their work, they begin to suspect that there is another reason for all the scientific research which has been ordered by their superiors. As they move closer to achieving their goals of saving the Earth from destruction, they discover that everything they have been told is a lie. They are not who they think are and they are not where they think they are. The three of them set out on their own determined to find the truth, but the truth is more shocking and more horrifying than anything that they ever could have imagined.
