KNOWING
Thriller / Sci-Fi -
In 1958, as part of the dedication ceremony for a new elementary school, a group of students is asked to draw pictures to be stored in a time capsule.
Move ahead to today: John Koestler (Nicolas Cage), is a widowed MIT astrophysicist who lives in wooded seclusion with his young son, Caleb (Chandler Canterbury). When Caleb is handed an envelope unearthed from the school time capsule buried 50 years earlier, its cryptic numerical sequence captures the interest of his dad, who soon realizes the powerful significance of the document, which seems to predict major world disasters throughout history. Unfortunately, there are three calamities that have yet to unfold, and John, aided reluctantly by widowed mom Diana Wayland (Rose Byrne) and her daughter, Abby (Lara Robinson), must try to unravel the mystery of the numbers before many more lives are lost.
Based on a story by author Ryne Douglas Pearson, KNOWING is a moody sci-fi thriller. and Director Alex Proyas’s follow-up to 2004’s "I ROBOT". "KNOWING is a pensive and melancholy thriller that rewards discerning viewers willing to follow its strange and intriguing tale."
The UNBORN
Thriller / Horror - A horror film combining ghostly children, Nazi experiments, and the Kabbalah. Casey hated her mother for abandoning her as a child. But when inexplicable events begin to happen, she begins to understand why she left. College student Casey Beldon (Odette Yustman, CLOVERFIELD) begins having dreams about a spooky little boy with bright blue eyes. She thinks nothing of it as first, but when the image becomes a recurring motif through some disturbing incidents, she begins to get frightened. A newspaper clipping then leads Casey to visit an elderly Holocaust survivor (Jane Alexander) in a nursing home. The woman clues her in to a dark family secret extending back to WWII, which prompts her to employ the services of Rabbi Sendak (Gary Oldman), whose skepticism about evil spirits is vanquished when he sees what he is up against.
The pacing is brisk and the movie jolts start right out of the gate.with plenty of
surprisingly gruesome shocks. Yustman is a strong, appealing lead, and the surprising presences of veterans Oldman and Alexander add some weight to the proceedings. The violence is never too graphic and the result is a "fun" thriller that crams a lot of spookiness into its PG-13 rating.
