"Legion" Rated R Starring: The Archangel Michael ( Paul Bettany), Dennis Quaid, etc.

After God loses faith in mankind, he sends thousands of angels to destroy us, except one. The Archangel Michael (Paul Bettany) defies God out of love for humankind. Other than Michael, the remaining hope for mankind is holed up and trapped in a diner, including a young waitress carrying the child supposedly destined to bring about the world's salvation. Demons constantly launch attacks on these remaining people, and intend to kill the yet to be born child and his mother. Based on a comic book or graphic novel. Be forewarned that the best parts of this movie mostly occurred in the movie trailer, especially the old woman who climbs the diner wall dodging bullets.

"Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief" Rated PG Starring: Percy Jackson ?, Sally ( Katharine Keener), Charon ( Pierce Brosnan), Zeus (Sean Bean), Medusa (Uma Thurman), Persephone ? , etc.

A seemingly ordinary teenage boy with Attention Deficit Disorder and Dyslexia discovers that he is actually the demigod son of Poseidon, god of the sea. The other immortals are after him, because they believe he stole Zeus' Ligtning Bolt, the most powerful weapon there is. With the help of other young demigods and a kindly older centaur (Pierce Brosnan), the less-than confident Percy has less than two weeks to find the stolen weapon before the gods wage war on each other and destroy mankind in the process. The people who made this movie also made at least one of the "Harry Potter" films. If you liked "Harry Potter", "Jason and the Argonauts", or the tv series "Hercules: The Legendary Journey" and "Legend of the Seeker", then this movie is probably for you.

"The Beast Must Die!" (1974) Starring: Calvin Lockhart, Peter Cushing, etc.

A rich playboy hunter (Calvin Lockhart) brings a diverse group of people together to discover which one is a werewolf. Once the wolf among them is discovered, he aims to hunt him or her down. One of the best werewolf films I have ever seen. At different parts of the movie, there are clues shown about who may be the wolf man or woman.
