'WINCHESTER'
Genre/rating: Thriller/PG-13
Built by Sarah Winchester, heiress to the Winchester fortune, the most haunted house in the world stands seven stories tall and contains hundreds of rooms. To an outsider, it looks like a monstrous monument to a disturbed woman's madness. But Sarah's actually building a prison, an asylum for hundreds of vengeful ghosts -- and the most terrifying among them have a score to settle with the Winchesters.
'15:17 TO PARIS'
Genre/rating: Drama/PG-13
Synopsis: From director Clint Eastwood, this real-life story tells of three men whose brave act turned them into heroes during a high-speed railway ride. In the early evening of Aug. 21, 2015, the world watched in stunned silence as the media reported a thwarted terrorist attack on Thalys train #9364 bound for Paris. The attempt was prevented by three young Americans traveling through Europe. The film follows the course of the friends’ lives, from the struggles of childhood through finding their footing in life, to the series of unlikely events leading up to the attack. The heroic trio is comprised of Anthony Sadler, Oregon National Guardsman Alek Skarlatos and U.S. Air Force Airman First Class Spencer Stone, who play themselves in the film.
