BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

The Woman In Black To Get A Sequel

With Hammer's The Woman In Black taking enough at the box office to buy herself a Milan season's worth of widow's weeds, it's no surprise that the iconic British studio has set to work on a sequel to the Edwardian scarefest.

The Woman In Black did astonishing business in cinemas, taking $112m worldwide to date and exceeded expectations overseas too. It's the kind of rapturous reception Hammer will be hoping The Woman In Black: Angels Of Death will able to rekindle.

The setting, Eel Marsh House, will remain, but the time period shifts forward 40 years - presumably into the war years, or just after - with a couple moving into the haunted house and encountering all kinds of spectral goings-on. Fooooools! *Insert evil chuckle here*

A new writer - Jon Croker - has penned the script and Hammer Films CEO Simon Oakes is promising a follow-up that'll pack in all the scares of The Woman In Black: "It's a wonderful new tale every bit as atmospheric and terrifying as its predecessor. We're proud to be working with Susan Hill again."

So can this written-for-the-screen version capture the spooks of the Daniel Radcliffe / James Watkins / Jane Goldman version? With those 'angels' referenced in the title, would we be right in thinking that the young victims of the back story may have a role to play, or will the Nazgul be popping by for their holidays? Watch this space for more. Radcliffe, presumably, will not be returning - so who would you like to see in his place?

Sex Tape Review: Overly Sexual, Rude, Vulgar, and Absolutely Hilarious

The raunchy Sex Tape will divide audiences and critics, but who cares? Sex Tape suggests a growing practice among loving partners: that of making a raunchy testament of their escapades for posterity. But what happens when that evidence gets seen by friends, neighbors, and even the mailman? This is the plot that pits Jay (Jason Segel) and Annie (Cameron Diaz) in an effort to secure every iPad gift Jay has given, his record company playlists being the envy of the recipients, but which has also inadvertently spread the video to every device. The reason for the act - termed in the movie as pulling "the full Lincoln " for its three-hour length - stems from the couple's non-existent social life, brought on by the constant demands of their children. The couple has a lot to lose: a burgeoning business relationship between Annie and Hank (Rob Lowe) could end if the iPad she's given to Hank exposes the video, and so the couple sets out to reclaim and wipe the incrim...

Winona Ryder- An "Alienation" Expert?

Winona Ryder- An "Alienation" Expert? We're halfway checked out for the holiday weekend, so let's end with bit of comedy. A litigious videogame player is calling Winona Ryder to testify as an expert in "alienation." Erik Estavillo has filed a $1 million lawsuit in California Superior Court against Activision Blizzard, publisher of "World of Warcraft," saying it "maintain(s) a harmful virtual environment to many of its customers by forcing them to follow the game's sneaky and deceitful practices." The plaintiff says he suffers from several mental health problems brought on by WoW's "alienating" features, such as forcing beginners to walk or run to get from one point to another instead of speedier options available to those who master the game or buy an expansion pack. Estavillo says that the slow pace is "deceitful" because more time = more subscription revenue for Activision. Here's where Winona Ryder comes...
