Chicago – The problem with most horror films is that they don’t understand what really scares us, and substitute bloody messes or the jack-in-the-box “boo!” instead of what really gets under our skins. “The Possession of Michael King” is a rare and special exception, taking demonic possession to broad depths of psychological and religious symbolism.
Rating: 4.5/5.0
The story of a non-believer who seeks to make a film about proof of demonic possession has a full laundry list for that genre – the odd movements, the voices, the killings, the Church, the “found” video footage and the weird zealots aiding the possessed along the way. What it does differently with the material is in the context circumstance of extreme emotional distress, to the point that it all could be psychosomatic – fiercely so, but possible in the way its presented. Writer/director David Jung creates an environment of dread, one that marries to...

HBO finally treated us to a look at Game of Thrones’ third season over the weekend, but what did the trailer reveal? Spoilers ahead…
Warning: this feature contains numerous spoilers for Game of Thrones’ third season and beyond. If you haven’t read the books, leave well alone.
After three footage-less promos, the first real trailer for Game of Thrones' third season debuted in the Us on Friday evening. For the benefit of those who've read ahead in George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire saga, we've attempted to unpack what the new trailer tells us. Plenty of spoilers lay ahead...
Our last glimpse of Westeros in the chilling final moments of season two left us with Samwell hiding terrified from a passing army of wights Beyond the Wall, so it’s only fitting that that’s where the first season three trailer begins.

The Screen Actors Guild has announced their list of nominations for the best performances of 2011. I have to point out that I'm surprised Tom Hardy and Joel Edgarton weren't nominated for their roles in Warrior, because they were pretty damn awesome in that film. I think they deserved a nom more than Leonardo DiCaprio. I'm a huge fan of DiCaprio but his performance in J. Edgar wasn't his best. Brad Pitt will end up taking home the award for Moneyball though. It was great to see Bridesmaids and The Help get a nomination for best ensemble cast. It will be interesting to see who takes home the award on this list, and how many of them will make their way to the Oscars.
Who would you like to see take home the award?
