STONE OF DESTINY is based on the audacious true-life attempt to bring the Stone of Scone back to Scotland. This is a story about the passion of youth and the universal theme of the underdog triumphing over the establishment. A story full of emotion, humor, action and the suspense of a classic heist movie. Written and directed by Charles Martin Smith (AIR BUD, THE SNOW WALKER) STONE OF DESTINY tells the story of Ian Hamilton, a dedicated nationalist who reignited Scottish national pride in the 1950s with his daring raid on the heart of English colonialism to bring the Stone of Scone back home. At the heart of Stone of Destiny is the passionate journey to right a wrong. Starring as Hamilton is Charlie Cox (CASSANOVA, STARDUST). Joining Cox in the star studded cast are Kate Mara (Shooter, Brokeback Mountain), Billy Boyd (LORD OF THE RINGS), Robert Carlyle (TRAINSPOTTING, 28 WEEKS LATER) and Academy Award winning actress Brenda Fricker. Director: Charles Martin Smith Cast: Charlie Cox, Kate Mara, Robert Carlyle, Billy Boyd, Brenda Fricker |

Mark and James are best friends. Even though Mark's not so secretly in love with James's girlfriend Chasely, they're bound by a gruesome secret in their past involving the neighbourhood bogeyman, ex-con Archer. When the boys see serial killer Ian burying a backpacker in the woods, they realize they've stumbled upon the chance of a lifetime, and seizing the opportunity for revenge they blackmail him into murdering Archer. However the plan backfires and instead of killing Archer, the serial killer and ex-con team up against them. Rather than destroying their childhood nightmare, Mark and James discover they've created another one far deadlier, and now fighting for their lives Mark will be forced to reveal a secret he's been hiding even from James, a secret as monstrous as the real life monsters determined to finish them off for good. Director: Jon Hewitt Cast: Joel Edgerton, Michael Dorman, Sebastian Gregory, Hannah Mangan-Lawrence, Joshua Payne |

Attempting to resurrect their failing marriage, Peter and Marcia set out on a camping trip to a deserted stretch of the Australian coastline in the hope that a long weekend in the sunshine will help them patch their differences. They are a careless couple, littering the countryside with garbage, shooting guns and even driving away after killing a kangaroo with their truck. Their callous disregard for the environment soon becomes apparent when animals start to seek vengeance. Marcia and Peter have proved themselves to be destroyers of nature. Will the animals allow them to leave or will mother nature exact her own destruction? Director: Jamie Blanks Cast: Jim Caviezel, Claudia Karvan |

Diane Blaine has the face of a movie star. Unfortunately, fallen star/tabloid queen Jamie Stephens already made it famous. Hollywoods constant rejection due to what Diane refers to as "TJS" ("Too Jamie Stephens") has made her bitter, frustrated... and, yes, whiny. Co-worker/boyfriend Jack Sanders doesn't help matters. His idea of ambition is letting it ride. Now he's in major debt to a trigger-happy mobster who, interestingly enough, has a thing for Jamie Stephens. Jack's only way out? Convince Diane to be Jamie and wipe out the debt having one meal with a made man. It's literally the performance of her life. With Jack's on the line. Directors: Matt Berman, Kevin P. Farley Cast: Norm MacDonald, Pamela Anderson, Chris Kattan, Vivica A. Fox, David Spade, Kevin P. Farley, Colleen Camp, Chazz Palminteri, Jeremy London |
