New Movies:

"When frightening events start to occur in their home, young couple Kelly (Ashley Greene) and Ben (Sebastian Stan) discover they are being haunted by a presence that was accidentally conjured during a university parapsychology experiment. The horrifying apparition feeds on their fear and torments them no matter where they try to run. Their last hope is an expert in the supernatural (Tom Felton), but even with his help they may already be too late to save themselves from this terrifying force." --movieinsider.com

 

Dodging speeding cars, crazed cabbies and eight million cranky pedestrians is all in a day’s work for Wilee (Joseph Gordon-Levitt), the best of New York's agile and aggressive bicycle messengers. It takes a special breed to ride the fixie – super lightweight, single-gear bikes with no brakes and riders who are equal part skilled cyclists and nutcases who risk becoming a smear on the pavement every time they head into traffic. But a guy who’s used to putting his life on the line is about to get more than even he is used to when his last envelope of the day – a routine "premium rush" run – turns into a life or death chase through the streets of Manhattan. --movieinsider.com

If you're looking for a rowdy, rockin' time check out Lynyrd Skynyrd tonight at the CenturyLink Center!

And if you wanna see if he still fills out a pair of jeans like he did 10 years ago (the answer is YES) check out Dwight Yoakam as takes the stage tonight at Horsheshoe Riverdome.
