It is a pretty substandard week for movies. Even moreso than usual. But Erik Childress and Steve Prokopy power through and may find at least one worth your time. Could it be the story of a serial killer and possession (The Mannequin)? Or how about the one with Ving Rhames training a wannabe female boxer to become…a manager (Uppercut)? There’s a documentary about Paul McCartney after leaving The Beatles (Man on the Run) and Jessica Chastain in a toxic relationship with an immigrant (Dreams). Priyana Chopra has to fight off pirate Karl Urban (The Bluff) and the director of WALL-E explores death and aging over tens of thousands of years (In the Blink of an Eye). Finally, Ghostface AND Neve Campbell return in the horror franchise celebrating its 30th Anniversary (Scream 7).
