Reilly), to two mysterious sisters who provoke the passion of the King of Strongcliff (Vincent Cassel), to the King of Highhills obsessed with a giant Flea (Toby Jones) leading to heartbreak for his young daughter, these stories weave the beautiful with the grotesque, creating a stunning and unique work of gothic imagination.

Down on their luck punk rockers The Ain’t Rights are finishing up a long and unsuccessful tour, and are about to call it quits when they get an unexpected booking at an isolated, run-down club deep in the backwoods of Oregon. What seems merely to be a third-rate gig escalates into something much more sinister when they witness an act of violence backstage that they weren’t meant to see. Now trapped backstage, they must face off against the club’s depraved owner, Darcy Banker (Stewart), a man who will do anything to protect the secrets of his nefarious enterprise. But while Darcy and his henchmen think the band will be easy to get rid of, The Ain’t Rights prove themselves much more cunning and capable than anyone expected, turning the tables on their unsuspecting captors and setting the stage for the ultimate life-or-death showdown.

In this taut psychological thriller by Karyn Kusama (Girlfight, Jennifer’s Body), the tension is palpable when Will (Logan Marshall-Green, Prometheus) shows up to a dinner party hosted by his ex-wife Eden (Tammy Blanchard, Into the Woods) and new husband David (Michiel Huisman, “Game of Thrones”). The estranged divorcees’ tragic past haunts an equally eerie present; amid Eden’s suspicious behavior and her mysterious house guests, Will becomes convinced that his invitation was extended with a hidden agenda. Unfolding over one dark evening in the Hollywood Hills, The Invitation blurs layers of mounting paranoia, mystery, and horror until both Will—and the audience—are unsure what threats are real or imagined.

Girl in the Photographs, The (2015)*

TheGirlInThePhotographsPoster

Title: The Girl in the Photographs
Rating: R
Directed by: Nick Simon
Written by: Robert Morast, Osgood Perkins and Nick Simon
Starring: Christy Carlson Romano, Katharine Isabelle and Claudia Lee
Release Date: 4/1/2016
Running Time: 95 minutes

IMDb

Big-city glamour clashes with small-town values — and a killer’s knife — in The Girl in the Photographs, a bloody cocktail from director Nick Simon and executive producer/​​horror master Wes Craven that is in equal parts an homage to the slasher genre and a clever manipulation of its tropes.

Colleen (Claudia Lee), a bored young woman in a sleepy community called Spearfish, starts receiving photographs of brutally murdered young women. Are they real or staged? The culprit is either a serial killer or some creep with a sick sense of humour, not that the cops are doing much about it either way. But when news of the twisted photo campaign hits the internet, famous LA-based celebrity photographer Peter Hemmings (clearly a tip to David Hemmings’ shutterbug character in Blow-Up, and played to hilariously arrogant perfection by Kal Penn) decides to take a trip back to his hometown, Spearfish, to investigate.

Hemmings and his entourage of self-centred models, assistants, and hangers-on descend upon the town and immediately disrupt Colleen’s dull existence. Hemmings takes a special interest in Colleen, much to the chagrin of his cool-as-ice model girlfriend (Miranda Rae Mayo). As the killer targets Colleen’s friends and closes in on her, Hemmings and his posse seem to present an enticing escape.
