Ash Williams is back—and this time he’s really out of his element. After being hurled through a time portal into medieval England, the chainsaw-handed, shotgun-wielding hero must battle an army of the undead and recover the mystical Necronomicon if he has any hope of returning home. But when Ash accidentally unleashes an evil force—and an especially nasty version of himself—he finds himself leading a desperate defense against the Army of Darkness.

Directed by Sam Raimi and starring Bruce Campbell, Army of Darkness is a wildly inventive collision of horror, slapstick comedy, fantasy adventure, and Ray Harryhausen-inspired spectacle. Hail to the king, baby.

The cast also includes Adam Scott, Ving Rhames, Jerry O’Connell, Christopher Lloyd, and—in a wonderfully knowing nod to Jaws—Richard Dreyfuss.

Here kitty, kitty, kitty…
Josie (Rachael Leigh Cook), Melody (Tara Reid), and Val (Rosario Dawson) are three small-town musicians with big dreams of taking their band from the garage to the top of the charts without sacrificing their own look, sound, or style. Their big break arrives when hotshot manager Wyatt Frame (Alan Cumming) signs the Pussycats to MegaRecords, where ruthless CEO Fiona (Parker Posey) transforms them into an overnight sensation. Suddenly they have a number-one single, sold-out concerts, and screaming fans—but the girls soon discover they’re pawns in a sinister scheme to control America’s youth through subliminal messages hidden in pop music. Based on the Archie Comics characters and their Hanna-Barbera animated series, Deborah Kaplan and Harry Elfont’s 2001 live-action musical comedy is a candy-colored satire of pop music, corporate branding, celebrity, and consumer culture. Initially a box-office disappointment, Josie and the Pussycats has since found an enthusiastic cult following. Grab your cat ears and turn it up—these Pussycats have claws.
