You demanded it and now the surprise hit critics call "one of the scariest movies of all time" can be experienced in the most terrifying place of all... your home. After a young, middle class couple moves into what seems like a typical suburban "starter" tract house, they become increasingly disturbed by a presence that may or may not be demonic but is certainly most active in the middle of the night. Especially when they sleep. PARANORMAL ACTIVITY builds suspense night after night all they way to the shocking ending. Roger Ebert called it "truly scary." Go ahead, we dare you to watch it at home... at least you can leave the lights on. (Note: This version of the film has a different alternative ending than the theatrical version, which can also be purchased from Film Fresh.)

From producer Peter Jackson (LORD OF THE RINGS) and director Neill Blomkamp comes a startlingly original sciencefiction thriller that "soars on the imagination of its creators" (Peter Travers, ROLLING STONE). With stunning special effects and gritty realism, the film plunges us into a world where the aliens have landed... only to be exiled to a slum on the fringes of Johannesburg. Now, one lone human discovers the mysterious secret of the extraterrestrial weapon technology. Hunted and hounded through the bizarre back alleys of an alien shantytown, he will discover what it means to be the ultimate outsider on your own planet.

Training Day

$11.99

Rookie cop Jake Hoyt wants to stop crooks, not become one. But staying on the right side of the line that separates cop from criminal will be more challenging than anything he's faced. Because Hoyt's senior partner for the next 24 hours is Alonzo Harris, an undercover narc meaner than any of L.A.'s mean streets. In a powerful departure from his frequent good-guy roles, Denzel Washington plays Harris, the twisted but charismatic detective who both attracts and repels as he becomes the kind of thug he's supposed to collar. Ethan Hawke plays unseasoned recruit Hoyt. And Antoine Fuqua (THE REPLACEMENT KILLERS, BAIT) directs, guiding a cast that includes music stars Dr. Dre, Macy Gray and Snoop Dogg. Training day. It's a day of reckoning.

Mad Max

$13.99

Setting Mel Gibson on a sure path to superstardom, this highly acclaimed "crazy collide-o-scope" (NEWSWEEK) of highway mayhem "cinematically defined the postapocalyptic landscape" (TV GUIDE). Featuring eye-popping stunts that are "electrifying and very convincing" (VARIETY) and "an authentically nihilistic spirit" (THE VILLAGE VOICE), MAD MAX is "pure cinematic poetry" (TIME). In the ravaged near-future, a savage motorcycle gang rules the road. Terrorizing innocent civilians while tearing up the streets, the ruthless gang laughs in the face of a police force hell-bent on stopping them. But they underestimate one officer: Max Rockatansky (Gibson). And when the bikers brutalize Max's best friend and family, they send him into a mad frenzy that leaves him with only one thing left in the world to live for -- revenge!

Gran Torino

maint — Tue, 22 Dec 2009 05:48:50 +0000

Korean War vet and retired autoworker Walt Kowalski doesn't much like how his life or his neighborhood has turned out. He especially doesn't like the people next door, Hmong immigrants from Southeast Asia. But events force Walt to defend those neighbors against a local gang that feeds on violence and fear. For the first time since MILLION DOLLAR BABY, Clint Eastwood works on both sides of the camera, winning the National Board of Review Award as Best Actor for his bone-deep playing of Kowalski, burnished with experience, grace and gravitas into a "prime vintage Eastwood performance" (Peter Travers, ROLLING STONE).
