  • 1. WORLD WAR Z:

    Based on the Max Brooks novels, “An Oral History of the Zombie Wars,” I would categorize this film as the thinking person’s zombie movie. Brad Pitt stars, and his production company also produced the story that offers a different spin on zombie hoards that threaten every continent on earth with a far more thoughtful and more diabolical approach to eating human flesh. Pitt is Gerry Lane, a UN employee charged with helping stop the incessant move of the walking dead … he is forced to leave his family behind in order to execute his orders. Nothing here is stereotyped – it’s all new ground – liked it very much! Rated 18A.

  • 2. THE BLING RING:

    Sofia Coppola (yes, THAT Coppola family) is the director here of a based-on-actual-events story of group of teenagers, all star-struck, all internet savvy, and all interested in plundering the homes of the rich and famous while using social media and digital technology to invade the homes of the stars when the stars are away on star-type business. Emma Watson (Harry Potter) leads a strong cast of young women in what amounts to a bit of a vanity project … not a terribly good movie, but it gets made because your last name is Coppola. Rated 14A.

  • 3. THE EAST:

    Canada’s Ellen Page (Juno) is the third banana in a movie that almost no one liked except the people who went to see it. An industrial espionage film in which its elite operatives find themselves in danger of execution of they are found out, it is yet another condemnation of the behaviour behind the scenes of high-tech firms and the secrets they harbour. Brit Marling also stars in a good tension-filled thriller. Rated 14A.

  • WORLD WAR Z:

    Watch the street scenes that take place in Philadelphia and see if you can catch any tip-offs that it’s really Glasgow, Scotland. Hint … look at the cars in the background.

NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD (1968):

George Romero’s quintessential zombie movie is campy and scary even after 45 years. Watch for all those scenes of zombies chopping down human flesh … it’s actually ham covered with chocolate syrup … chocolate looks like blood in a B & W movie.

  • INSIDIOUS CHAPTER 2:

    A great and chilling follow-up to the original

  • THE FAMILY:

    Better than average mob movie with Robert DiNero.
