Plot Summary: Liv (Kate Hudson) and Emma (Anne Hathaway) are best friends who since childhood have planned every detail of their respective weddings. At the top of their bridal "must have" list: a ceremony at New York's ultimate bridal destination, the Plaza Hotel.

Now, at age 26, they're both about to get married; they're about to realize their dreams; and they're about to live happily ever after.

Or maybe not...

When a clerical error causes a clash in wedding dates - they're now to be married on the same date! - Liv, Emma and their lifelong friendship are put to the ultimate test. Liv, a successful lawyer who is used to getting what she wants, including the perfect job and the perfect man, won't settle for anything less than the perfect wedding she has dreamed of for years. Emma, a schoolteacher who has always been good at taking care of others, but not so much in looking after herself, discovers her inner Bridezilla and comes out swinging when her own dream wedding is imperiled.

Now, the two best friends who'd do anything for each other, find themselves in a no-holds-barred, take-no-prisoners struggle that threatens to erupt into all-out war.

Plot Summary: Sometimes the soul of a dead person has been so tainted with evil that it is denied entrance to heaven. It must endlessly wander the borderlands between worlds, desperately searching for a new body to inhabit.

And sometimes it actually succeeds.

Writer/director David Goyer ("Blade: Trinity," "The Invisible," "Batman Begins") gives a terrifying glimpse into the life of the undead in "The Unborn," a supernatural thriller that follows a young woman pulled into a world of nightmares when a demonic spirit haunts her and threatens everyone she loves.

Casey Beldon (Odette Yustman) hated her mother for leaving her as a child. But when inexplicable things start to happen, Casey begins to understand why she left. Plagued by merciless dreams and a tortured ghost that haunts her waking hours, she must turn to the only spiritual advisor, Sendak (Gary Oldman), who can make it stop.

With Sendak's help, Casey uncovers the source of a family curse ****** back to Nazi Germany—a creature with the ability to inhabit anyone or anything that is getting stronger with each possession. With the curse unleashed, her only chance at survival is to shut a doorway from beyond our world that has been pried open by someone who was never born.

One day, adventure finds its way to him when his beaten-up car is hit in a harrowing collision with Julia (Rebecka Hemse), a beautiful young woman who has just returned from the Far East. Racked with guilt at his role in the accident, Jonas goes to visit Julia at the hospital, where she lies in a coma. To his surprise, he is warmly welcomed by Julia's wealthy, doting family, who mistake him for Sebastian, the new boyfriend Julia met while traveling in Cambodia. Smitten and unable to tear himself away, Jonas finds himself assuming Sebastian's identity to return to Julia's bedside at the hospital day after day. When Julia finally awakens from the coma, she has lost much of her memory and her eyesight, allowing Jonas to continue his ruse unfettered. As their relationship intensifies, Jonas falls ever more deeply in love with Julia and the exciting future she represents, while slowly drifting away from his children, his wife and the existence he has known -- until one day the truth comes knocking at the door.
