What does it take to step up and become a responsible adult, contributing to the family in its time of need? I suppose if you’re a party girl chatterbox like Pippa McGee (Heather Graham) who has eschewed responsibilities in favour of gallivanting around the world, a whole lot. But when dad Malcolm (Bruce Gray) has a heart attack and she wants to chip in and help out. Dad needs an bridal magazine editor and Pippa has some thoughts on the magazine’s direction during her first staff meeting. Sadly for them it has to do with the idea of marriage as indentured servitude and the industry itself as vampires bleeding dry all of their followers. Sigh… It is going to be a long day.

Constantine

The struggle between Heaven and Hell, light and dark, good and evil goes on all around us, invisible to most. It seems that those above and those below have entered into an hands-off agreement and carry out their nefarious plots through their minions and half-breeds. But something is amiss for the hellspawn have been violating the terms of the accord in forcing Isabel Dodson (Rachel Weisz) to commit suicide. Her twin sister Angela (Rachel Weisz) enlists the help of John Constantine (Keanu Reeves) to figure out why her sister was murdered despite everybody’s belief it was a suicide. But their investigation is not without consequences. Angela is warned that, if she looks for the perps, they and those who manipulate them will see her too.

Caffeine

Sometimes your partner will surprise you with their understanding of your proclivities. Where your inclinations come from are buried in the morass of your subconscious. Something happened in your past that clicked on a switch that takes you in odd directions. You suppress it for awhile but it overwhelms you until you can no longer stand it until you have to act upon it. You aren’t proud of what’s going on but you have to continue. Hopefully it isn’t anything for which you can be convicted but it does provide you with a release. John (Andrew Ableson) tries to blackmail an alibi out of David (Mark Dymond) but instead he confesses to his fiancée Angela (Jules Leyser) that he wears her underwear while she’s out. She’s freaked into seeing hallucinations of John dressed up in her knickers. But others show her that there are worse things than stretched undies.

Cursed

Having spent the better part of my high school day being picked on by one type of bully or another, I have a healthy disdain for all things authoritative. Once I figured out how I fit within the confines of the teen hierarchy, I was able to skip many of the gauntlets thrown into the path of others in my school (and help a few avoid them as well). Jimmy (Jesse Eisenberg) is plagued by a trio of bozos led by Bo (Milo Ventimiglia) who thinks that gay slurs and epithets will show how cool he is in the eyes of his acolytes and girlfriend Brooke (Kristina Anapau). A wrestling challenge goes awry after Jimmy is infected with lycanthropy. However, in an unusual turn for a movie like this, Bo’s loss does provoke his to come out of the closet.

Connors' War

Over the years, I have been poked, pricked and prodded by a variety of medical practitioners who have done any number of tests. The test that creeps me out the most is that done by my optometrist where he stuffs my head into that frame and proceeds to blast a puff of air into my eyes to open them up. Imagine instead that hypodermic needles are used instead of air are pushed into your eyeballs. That’s what Connors (Anthony Criss) faces. Even if I were blind like him and they promise to restore my sight, I can’t imagine agreeing to have thin steel pipes shoved into my eyeballs. Well, I’m not a tough as Connors so that when he lets Amanda (Nia Peeples) operate the machine to inject the cure, I’m cringing. And then he lets her do it a second time, now without anesthetic. I’m still trying to relax my sphincter.
