New At The Movies
This week, Guillermo del Toro‘s new movie looks aimed at scaring the crap out of you is coming out, Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark. Also a Zoe Saldana starring action flick, Colombiana is coming to movie theaters this Friday. And we get to see an unique new look for Paul Rudd, who’s apparently an idiot of a brother.
Other stars coming out this week in new movies in your local movie theater screenings include Vera Farmiga, True Blood‘s Stephen Moyer, Malcolm McDowell, Christina Hendricks, Burn Notice‘s Gabrielle Anwar, Mandy Moore, Jackson Rathbone, Michael Clarke Duncan, Brian J. White, & Charisma Carpenter.
If I Were To Recommend One…
IF I was brave enough, I’d hit up Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark this weekend. And since movie theaters are still scheduling almost all their screenings of Fright Night and Conan the Barbarian in 3D and not 2D, again, I will be spending my money elsewhere. I think the consumer spoke last week when these two movies bailed at the box office and that studios should have learned to not force 3D on us.

Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark
Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark cast includes Bailee Madison, Katie Holmes, Guy Pearce and more in a movie about “A young girl sent to live with her father and his new girlfriend discovers creatures in her new home who want to claim her as one of their own.”
Written by Guillermo del Toro, I’m thinking this should be a pretty decent movie full of frights. He brings a unique new vision to some things he does and he’s made fan out of me from some of his work. It’s directed by a first-timer director, Troy Nixey.
Between the cast and writer, I think this movie will direct itself and Nixey got lucky. I don’t know, I could be wrong.

Colombiana
Colombiana stars Zoe Saldena, Amanda Stenberg, Micheal Vartan, & Smallville’s Callum Blue in a movie about “A young woman, after witnessing her parents’ murder as a child in Bogota, grows up to be a stone-cold assassin.”
Hmm…
Directed by Olivier Megaton, who was the director behind Transporter 3 and 2nd unit director for Hitman, at least the action should be pretty decent. Don’t you think?
