An American Pie for American Horror Story
In the year 1999 the two somewhat iconic films, American Beauty and American Pie, launched model and actress Mena Suvari into the public eye. You’ll see her next in another American title, American Horror Story. Imagine that!
Suvari is coming to the oh so scary new series as a lady with some sort of connection to the Harmon house. The character’s nickname is super spooky. It’s The Black Dahlia. Say what? Yes, you heard me. The Black Dahlia, as I’m sure you know from the movies about her, was the high-profile murder victim circa 1947. You know, the murder that was never really solved. It would seem we will get to see a new, and hopefully frightening and creative theory as to what may have happened to the infamous lady. That will all happen during this season’s ninth episode.

Synopsis: The hot-headed young D’Artagnan and three legendary but down-on-their-luck Musketeers must unite and defeat a beautiful double agent and her villainous employer from seizing the French throne and engulfing Europe in war.
Alexandre Dumas’ classic tale of The Three Musketeers has gone through many incarnations over the decades. The first high-profile effort was the Douglas Fairbanks silent classic from 1921 and the last was the forgettable Charlie Sheen and Kiefer Sutherland feature from 1994 , most notable for a Rod Stewart, Bryan Adams and Sting musical collaboration. Along with those films there have been many sequels, prequels and spin-off’s, including a terrible 2001 film entitled The Musketeer, which tried to implement The Matrix kung-fu style elements to the 17th century setting. »

Director: Duncan Jones
Summary: A decorated soldier discovers he's part of a mission to find the bomber of a Chicago commuter train. The experiment is a program that enables him to re-live another man's identity in the last eight minutes of his life which he must do repeatedly to find the truth.
Analysis: Two years ago British filmmaker Duncan Jones delivered his indie debut feature "Moon", a little seen but critically acclaimed sci-fi tale that was essentially Sam Rockwell acting alone or against himself. It was fresh, innovative, somber and overall heralded the arrival of a director to watch out for. After failing to secure funding for his next project, Jones quickly hopped onto the helm of this high-concept action/time travel blockbuster.
Naturally came the calls of Jones being a sell out, after all the »
