THE LEGEND OF BLOODY MARY (Septemeber 16)
Ryan has been plagued with nightmares ever since his sister Amy went missing eight years earlier after playing the game “Bloody Mary.” Now, a senior in college, he begins to reach a mental breaking point from the years of stress and guilt over his sister’s disappearance. Ryan’s girlfriend, frustrated herself at his emotional distance and self pity, calls Father O'Neal for guidance. Father O’Neal, both a priest and an archaeologist, decides to help Ryan end his tormenting grief by using his detective skills to figure out what exactly happened to Amy. Together, they uncover the truth about The Legend of Bloody Mary.
COPYCAT (September 23)
Tormented by the desire to find the murderer who took her mother’s life, journalist Laura Nelson investigates the only clue the killer leaves behind at the scene – his diary pages. References in the blood soaked pages to Richard Ramirez, Jeffrey Dahmer and Ed Gein lead Laura to believe the murderer has been inspired by the most infamous of serial killers. Through the readings she learns more than she ever wanted to know about the motives behind these monsters and how this killer is paralleling his mentors. The closer Laura gets to finding him, the closer he gets to finding her. It’s a thrilling cat and mouse game to the deadly end.
THE MORUE (September 2)
Trapped between the physical world and the afterlife, between dusk and dawn, six strangers are brought together through a series of unusual events. Trapped in a morgue, their disappearance goes mysteriously unnoticed by others. In a futile attempt for survival, they latch on to each other in hopes of making it through the night. The Morgue is an intense psychological thriller with a surprise and shocking twist. More is happening at the morgue than meets the eye.
SON OF SAM (September 2)
From the master of horror Ulli Lommel (Curse of the Zodiac), comes Son of Sam. The film creates a fictionalized account of the chilling tale of the “Son of Sam,” a vicious serial killer who terrorized the streets of New York in the late ‘70s. Upon his arrest, the “Son of Sam” told police he was influenced by a satanic cult. The city of New York would never be the same.

Count Mardulak, the leader of a group of vampires, has ended their tradition of human bloodletting and placed his followers on a diet of synthetic, bottled blood in an attempt to put aside their monstrous nature and peacefully co-exist with humans. However, when the Harrisons, a human family, move into the town, the natives start to crave “the real thing.” Soon, the Harrisons find themselves in the thick of an escalating rivalry between two vampire factions – one led by peaceful Count Mardulak and the other old-school bloodsuckers who consider Mardulak and his clan traitors to their predatory heritage. The battle for the “right to bite” begins at sundown!
