HARD CANDY
Weird thriller about a smart, charming teenage girl who goes to
the local coffee shop to meet Jeff, a 30-something fashion
photographer she met on the Internet. Before long, she's mixing
drinks at Jeff's place and stripping for an impromptu photo
shoot. It's Jeff's lucky night. But Hayley isn't as innocent as
she looks, and the night takes a bad turn when she begins to
impose a hard-hitting investigation on Jeff in an attempt to
reveal his possibly scandalous past. When she drugs him for an
impromptu surgical procedure, things go from bad to worse.

PROPOSITION, THE
In this uncompromising Australian period drama, conscience
competes with loyalty and love spurs revenge. Three brothers
fight for their place in a beautiful, brutal landscape, but one
must be forsaken to save another. Set in the 1880s, the film
opens in the middle of a frenzied gunfight between the police and
a gang of outlaws. Charlie Burns (Guy Pearce) and his brother
Mikey are captured by Captain Stanley (Ray Winstone). Together
with their formidable brother Arthur (Danny Huston), they are
wanted for a brutal crime. Stanley makes Charlie a seemingly
impossible proposition in an attempt to bring an end to the cycle
of turmoil: 14-year old Mikey will hang on Christmas Day unless
Charlie hunts down and kills his psychotic older brother Arthur,
who Stanley believes to be the ringleader and the true
perpetrator of the violence. If Charlie succeeds, Stanley will
pardon both Charlie and Mikey. Vitals: Director: John Hillcoat.
Stars: Guy Pearce, Ray Winstone, Danny Huston, John Hurt, David
Wenham, Emily Watson. 2006, CC, MPAA rating: R, 104 min., Drama,
Box office gross: $1.734 million, First Look Home Entertainment.
STAY ALIVE
After the mysterious death of a friend, a group of teenagers find
themselves in possession of "Stay Alive," a next-generation
horror survival video game based on the spine-chilling true story
of a murderous 17th century noblewoman known as "The Blood
Countess." The gamers don't know anything about the game other
than they're not supposed to have it ... and they're dying to
play it. Not able to resist temptation, the group begins to play
the grisly game, and soon, they start getting murdered one-by-one
in the same method as the characters from the game. As the line
between the game world and the real world disappears, the group
must find a way to defeat the vicious and merciless Blood
Countess, and also try to just "stay alive." Vitals: Director:
William Brent Bell. Stars: Jon Foster, Samaire Armstrong, Frankie
Muniz, Jimmi Simpson, Wendell Pierce, Milo Ventimiglia, Sophia
Bush. 2006, CC, MPAA rating: PG-13, 85 min., Horror, Box office
gross: $22.797 million, Buena Vista.
STICK IT
Independent 17-year-old Haley Graham (Missy Peregrym) has gotten
very good at defying both authority and the laws of gravity.
Haley's single dad finds it next to impossible to keep his
teenage daughter in line. For her and her neighborhood-cruising,
dirt-bike-riding pals, there is no jump or course around that's
too intense for Haley to try. So when her latest joyride results
in a short trip to juvenile court, the judge hands down her
sentence: rebellious Haley has to do time at Vickerman Gymnastics
Academy, an elite gymnastics academy run with military
regimentation by legendary and hardnosed coach Burt Vickerman
(Jeff Bridges). Unfortunately for Graham, it's a return to a
world she knows all too well -- a former Junior Finals gymnastics
champion, Haley inexplicably walked out in the middle of the
prestigious championship competition, betraying her teammates,
scrapping her own final championship aspirations and trashing her
reputation in one afternoon. So it's back to rules, back to
conformity, back to spandex. Haley's reputation precedes her at
VGA, and her headstrong ways and quick-witted comebacks instantly
score her both friends and enemies ... with the Academy's rising
star, Joanne Charis (Vanessa Lengies), firmly in the latter
category. But Coach Vickerman knows innate talent when he sees
it, and he's committed to helping Haley come back to a world she
could rule, whether she wants to or not. Haley has little choice
but to play the game -- so what if it's played with her rulebook?
Vickerman's response: "Don't hurt yourself. And don't get blood
on the equipment." Vitals: Director: Jessica Bendinger. Stars:
Jeff Bridges, Missy Peregrym, Vanessa Lengies, Nikki SooHoo,
Maddy Curley. 2006, CC, MPAA rating: PG-13, 103 min., Teen
comedy, Box office gross: $24.656 million, Buena Vista.

COMING SOON:
Due October 10 is third-wheel romantic comedy "You, Me and
Dupree," starring, Kate Hudson and Matt Dillon as a newly-wed
couple who have to put up with their permanent temporary house
guest Owen Wilson, from Universal ... On November 21, Universal
will release Woody Allen's latest mystery, "Scoop," starring
Scarlett Johansson, Hugh Jackman, Allen and Ian McShane ... Due
December 5 is the third-highest grossing worldwide film of all
time, "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest," directed by
Gore Verbinski and starring Johnny Depp, Orlando Bloom, Keira
Knightley, Jack Davenport, Bill Nighy, Jonathan Pryce, Lee
Arenberg, Mackenzie Crook, Kevin McNally, David Bailie and
Stellan Skarsgard. The film will be available in a single-disc
and a two-disc Collector's Edition, with such extras as
commentary, 10 featurettes, including a profile on star Johnny
Depp, an inside look at the movie's theatrical premiere on
Disneyland's Main Street, a photo diary from producer Jerry
Bruckheimer, a feature on "re-imagineering" the Disneyland theme
park's popular "Pirates of the Caribbean" attraction into a
movie, and an extensive making-of documentary; from Buena Vista.
DVD COLLECTIBLES:
From The Criterion Collection comes the shocking and outrageous
"Jigoku (Hell)," the most innovative creation from Nobuo Nakagawa
("The Lady Vampire," "Ghost Story of Yotsuya"), the father of the
Japanese horror film. After a young theology student flees a hit-
and-run accident, all possible escape routes lead straight to
hell, literally. A striking departure from traditional Japanese
ghost stories, "Jigoku," with its truly eye-popping (and gouging)
imagery, created aftershocks that are still reverberating in
cinema around the world today. The 1960 film receives a new,
restored high-definition digital transfer with new and improved
English subtitle translations. Extras include "Building the
Inferno," a new documentary on director Nakagawa and the making
of the film; theatrical trailer; galleries of posters from
selected Nakagawa and Shintoho studio films; and a new essay by

scheduled for release this week V'ctor Erice's spellbinding "The
Spirit of the Beehive," widely regarded as the greatest Spanish
film of the 1970s. In a small Castilian village in 1940, directly
following the country's devastating Civil War, 6-year-old Ana
attends a traveling movie show of "Frankenstein" and becomes
haunted by its memory. "Spirit of the Beehive" is one of the most
visually arresting movies ever made -- from one of cinema's most
elusive auteurs.

the classic rock musical starring John Travolta, Olivia Newton-
John, Stockard Channing, Jeff Conaway, Barry Pearl, Michael
