This week we have Monsters vs. Aliens for the kiddies and childlike adults out there. The Dreamworks animated film stars Reese Witherspoon, Paul Rudd, Seth Rogan, Will Arnett, Hugh Laurie, and Kiefer Sutherland. Whew! The animation for the movie looks pretty amazing, and it looks like it would be pretty incredible to see in IMAX 3D.

Next on the list is the directorial debut of Fred Durst (read interview) with The Education of Charlie Banks. This would be interesting to watch simply because it is such a career change for a rock-rap singer from the late 90′s, and apparently it’s not bad. The Haunting in Connecticut is based on the true story of a family living in, you guessed it, a haunted house. Last but not least, we have 12 Rounds, the action packed film starring WWE’s John Cena. It doesn’t really matter what the plot is, it has John Cena in it! Enough said.

Well the trailer made it in time for Halloween, but not the movie. The film stars Amanda Crew, Virginia Madsen, Kyle Gallner, Elias Koteas and Martin Donovan. The movie is “based” on a true story (I love that line, it’s used to make you think that all the special effects they’ve conjured up could actually happen and therefore terrify you even more- genuinely I fall for it every time). The story is about a family that is forced to relocate near a clinic where their teenage son was being treated for cancer. The family begins experiencing violent, supernatural events that the parents first blame on stress from the illness, but they later discover that their new home is a former mortuary with a dark past. Creeped out yet?
