Hollywood pokes fun at itself in this comedic look at the sometimes absurdist world of moviemaking. A fledgling screenwriter, Bobby (Matthew Modine), buys the rights to a Canadian book and attempts to turn it into his magnus opus. But as often happens, the showbiz machinery grinds the movie's progress to a halt. An actor falls apart on set, the original author is enraged at the events, and a documentary crew happens to be filming everything.

Patients are dying mysteriously in Dr. Frank Holt's hospital, and the computer records lay the blame at his feet. As his colleagues and friends, too, begin to fall victim, Dr. Holt must race to uncover the conspiracy at work. Is a computer system gone haywire to blame, or a secret gambling ring? Or is there something more?

The new worst witch carries on from the original series The Worst Witch based on books by Jill Murphy. This time at Cackles Academy, it's no longer Mildred 'Millie' Hubble but her cousin Henrietta 'Hettie' Hubble who is causing trouble.

Following Chief Inspector Armand Gamache as he investigates cases beneath the idyllic surface of the Quebec village, Three Pines, finding long-buried secrets and facing a few ghosts of his own.

The story plunges us into a town plagued by the undead where three slackers in the easy money market are forced to fight an evil mega-corporation to save their kidnapped grandmother. (FILMAFFINITY)
