BIG NEW RELEASES!
THE BOOGEYMAN: After their mother dies tragically, two sisters struggle to cope with their loss. They get no help from their father, a therapist who seems too busy dealing with his own issues. When one of the dad’s patients arrives at the family home begging for help, they all take him in. Unfortunately, the individual brings a supernatural presence that thrives on loss and pain with him.
This film is based on a short story by Stephen King and critical response was more positive than negative.
It stars Sophie Thatcher, Chris Messina, Vivien Lyra Blair and David Dastmalchian.
QUICKSAND: An American couple attempts to repair their fracturing marriage by spending time together in Columbia while attending a work conference. On a day off, they decide to hike in a rainforest and get caught in a heavy shower. As if that wasn’t bad enough, the pair become trapped in quicksand. They struggle to find a way out, slowly sink into the muck and are forced to deal with a venomous snake.
Allan Hawco and Carolina Gaitán headline the picture.
TRANSFORMERS: RISE OF THE BEASTS: Speaking of sequels to long-running series, the latest epic based on the popular toy line features a planet-eating villainous transformer. When the villain attacks a planet of animal-like robots attempting to obtain a key that can open portals in time, the beaten-down beasts use it to flee to Earth in the 1990s. They team up with the Autobots to protect the powerful item and universe from the sinister force.
It features Anthony Ramos, Dominique Fishback and the voices of Ron Perlman, Michelle Yeoh and Pete Davidson.
