If Insidious is anything like their previous effort (the SAW series) it will be a tremendous hit at the box office. The writer/director team of James Wan and Leigh Whannell definitely know how to scare the "bejesus" out of us. A happy couple Josh and Renai, played by Patrick Wilson (Watchmen) and Rose Byrne (Get Him to the Greek) think their lives are just about perfect. Three kids and a nice home make for a serene lifestyle until some unruly dark spirited ghosts begin tormenting them. Dalton, their son, is knocked out and ends up in a coma. Is his weak state drawing the scary entities or is it the house? After moving they find that the house may not have been the culprit of their fears."Excellent timing and the addition of some wry humor make this movie a cut above the normal "horror" flick and the actors are really good. For a small (one million dollar) budget, this movie stands a cut above the rest and will thoroughly entertain."

Based upon the popular Hasbro game with the same name, Battleship is a movie filmed at the Hawaiian islands Oahu and Maui so expect some fabulous scenery! Also filming in Sherman Oaks, California and Baton Rouge, Louisiana the film depicts some really intense battle footage when aliens take potshots at the US Naval Fleet in the Pacific Ocean. "The Regents" are evidently part of an alien race that has descended here to use the ocean to build their own power source when they come into contact with our fleet of navy vessels. The story gives us a perspective from both sides so we not only can see where our troops have placed their ships but also can view the locale of those alien ships, just like the Hasbro game. With the assistance of the Science and Entertainment Exchange we can expect some realistic footage and logistics. Starring Taylor Kitsch (Snakes on a Plane, The Bang-Bang Club) as Alex Hooper, Liam Neeson (Schindler's List, Rob Roy) as Admiral Shane, and Alexander Skarsgard (Trust Me, 13) a Stone Harper and directed by Peter Berg (director of Virtuality, Hancock also as actor in Chicago Hope and Entourage)."
