Something rotten is brewing beneath the industrial mecca known as Raccoon City. Unknown to its millions of residents, a huge underground bioengineering facility known as The Hive has accidentally unleashed the deadly and mutating T-virus, killing all of its employees. To contain the leak, the governing supercomputer, Red Queen, has sealed all entrances and exits. Now a team of highly trained super commandos including Rain (Michelle Rodriguez – The Fast and the Furious franchise, Girlfight), Alice (Milla Jovovich – The Fifth Element) and Matt (Eric Mabius – Cruel Intentions) must race to penetrate The Hive to isolate the T-virus before it overwhelms humanity. To do so, they must get past the Red Queen’s deadly defenses, face the flesh-eating undead employees, fight killer mutant dogs and battle The Licker, a genetically mutated savage beast whose strength increases with each of its slain victims. Based on the popular video-game series and the first film in the billion-dollar franchise.

Loverboy

Something strange is happening in Beverly Hills. Beverly Hills women have become deliriously happy. Not because they’ve gotten the best table at Spago, but because there are roses on their pillows. Because they have a tango partner. Because someone wants to take their picture. Because they pour out their troubles to a sympathetic listener. The unlikely Romeo is young Randy Bodek (Patrick Dempsey), a reluctant Loverboy whose own girlfriend dumped him because he didn’t know how to treat a woman. His summer job as a pizza delivery boy becomes a wild escapade bringing romance into the lives of some gorgeous, but frustrated, Beverly Hills wives. “There are a lot of women out there who do not believe in love anymore-all they want is a little romance and respect.” And a pizza with extra anchovies.
