The rollercoaster ride has just begun for Patrick Fabian who stars as a faithless evangelical minister Cotton Marcus in ''The Last Exorcism.'' He has just pulled his luggage off of the conveyor belt after enduring the long flight back from London where he attended the UK premier of ''The Last Exorcism'' in Leicester Square's massive Odeon move theater. ''It reminded me of Radio City Music Hall; it was gigantic,'' Fabian says. ''And packed with the faithful.''By faithful he means the ...  Read More

If you're ever in Scotland, the last thing you'll ever want to do is talk about how much you loved ''Braveheart.'' The film may be beloved to many in the world, but for some reason the Scots don't take too kindly to the largely fictionalized version of their most revered heroes. I have a feeling there will be many Hawaiians that will feel the same way about ''Princess Kaiulani.'' The film tells the story of a woman who fought for the independence of her people as American colonis...  Read More

Ex-Federale Machete (Danny Trejo) is threatened with deportation unless he assassinates Senator McLaughlin (Robert De Niro), a politician determined to build a wall between Texas and Mexico, but when the attempt goes awry, Machete realizes he is just a pawn in a scheme to help turn around the politician's bit for reelection. It might be in vogue to celebrate the low budget horror and action films of the past but that's mostly because director Robert Rodriguez and his friend Q...  Read More

HandMade Films was formed by Beatle guitarist George Harrison and Denis O'Brian in 1978 when the financing for Monty Python's ''Life of Brian'' fell through. Throughout the '80s HandMade Films would release a number of highly regarded films and at least one dubious failure in the Sean Penn and Madonna vehicle ''Shanghai Surprise.'' Sony Pictures released ''Life of Brian'' on Blu-ray in early in 2008 but it was the only film from HandMade Film's heyday to get the high-def treatment ...  Read More

Just as students are returning to populate classrooms the History Channel is releasing the first wave in their new ''Instant Expert'' line of informative DVDS. Each DVD is a self-contained history lesson that is a concise overview that works well on its own or as a supplement to history books and lectures. Over the past couple weeks I've become quite knowledgeable about topics as diverse as the Ancient Egypt, French Revolution, The Mayflower and its passengers, Ben Franklin, Be...  Read More

The Depot was packed with music fans 21 and up on Tuesday, August 31 for The Black Crowes concert. I arrived moments before the Crowes were scheduled to take the stage and found myself in a rather long line. I was relieved to see that though the line was long, it was moving quickly. I had barely made it in line to get my beer before the room erupted in applause and the legendary Black Crowes took the stage.The energy swirling around the Depot was exciting and I soon realize...  Read More

Since he was a small child, Cotton Marcus (Patrick Fabian) was groomed to take over his father's legacy as a minister and exorcist. Marcus has long since lost his faith and now relies on exuberance and trickery to make a living. After learning that a child was killed in an exorcism, Marcus decides that it is time to leave the business, but before he does, he intends on exposing the industry as a hoax by inviting a documentary crew to film his last exorcism.

When ''Mafia: The City of Lost Heaven'' was released in 2002 it was greeted with praise for its ''Grand Theft Auto'' aesthetics and above-average storyline that plays as a homage to classic mobster films like ''The Godfather'' and ''Goodfellas.'' Eight years later ''Mafia II'' finally arrives.''Mafia II'' differs from its predecessor in that the plot and characters aren't directly lifted from films (although there are moments that are clearly inspired by films like ''The Shawshank Redempt...  Read More

Over the course of their career, the seven-piece Arcade Fire has tackled some pretty weighty concept albums -- death, religion, and now the heaviest of them all ... the suburbs. The record encapsulates all of the hopes, dreams, and fears of the middle class. Win Butler & Co. spin tales of learning to drive (and hoping to drive away), falling in love, and trying to avoid the perils of suburban warfare. Throughout the 15 tracks, there is a constant conflict between the comforts...  Read More

It would be an incredible downer if an album called ''King of the Beach'' wasn't the feel-good record of the summer. No disappointment there -- as long as your idea of party music is trashy garage rock, mixed with trippy, electronic psychedelia. Singer Nathan Williams has no trouble spewing bratty, self-loathing lyrics (''My own friends hate my guts/So what? Who gives a ...'') or kicking out Beach Boys harmonies (''King of the Beach''). Though much of the record cruises at warped s...  Read More

It's not uncommon for an artist to put out a collection of demos. It's a cool way to give fans a sneak peek into the creative process, before the songs receive the heavy dose of studio gloss. Alkaline Trio front man Matt Skiba, however, shakes up the usual timeline with his basement recordings. Rather than release demo versions of previously released Alkaline Trio tunes, Skiba is letting fans hear the skeletons of songs he plans to release on a future solo album. The majority...  Read More

Raphael has shared the stage with Nelson for over 37 years, and says that Nelson has been somewhat of a parental figure. ''I started in 1973. I grew up with him. His parenting skills are suspect, but I didn't know anything about country music and I was real lucky to be in that situation,'' says Raphael who is on the phone from his ...  Read More

''Steel Magnolias'' is one of a handful of plays known for its outstanding women's roles. It was a play before it was a film, and on stage, Robert Harling's piece has an all-female cast. It was originally staged Off-Broadway in 1987, and has been performed on Broadway and extensively nationwide since then. Despite the fact that there have been a slew of Utah productions, my interest was piqued by Pinnacle Acting Company's version, playing through Sept. 11, because the cast read...  Read More

Finding her husband's arrival perpetually delayed, Juliette spends her time with Mark's Egyptian friend, Tareq (Alexander Siddig).
