Tweek Recommends for the Week of April 10- 16

Here's the rundown: I take a gander at the upcoming releases for the week, and select one wide and one limited release film. I'll give you a short synopysis of the film and its cast, and why I think it's a winner. Even if the list of options really blows, I'll give you at least one for those of you who just HAVE to see something THIS weekend. Don't worry, if I think even my top choice is going to suck, I'll tell you.

Wide-Release Film
Scary Movie 4- Dr. Phil, Shaq, Wayans Bros., some other unimportant people. Please, I'm begging you skip this section. Don't read this, then I can't be too angry at you. Go back to last weeks recommendations and pretend it's brand new and make it #1 at the Box Office. Or better yet, check out the limited-release flic below. If you want to see what is probably the only funny part in the entire movie, just watch the trailer here. (I admit, it's a cheap gag, but I laughed at Phil).

Limited-Release Film
Hard Candy- SEE THIS MOVIE AT ALL COSTS!!! This was a huge hit at all of the film festivals accross the country. A 15-year-old girl gets sucked in by an internet predator. They meet, he takes her to his house, he has this whole photo shoot thing set up. But in the end, who's really stalking who? This looks uber-awesome. I really wish this one was out near me somewhere, but alas. Damn theatres. They'd make more money if they'd open themselves up and take a gamble every now and then. Most good movies these days most people will never see because they aren't backed by a major motion picture company. But that's a different rant. Make this movie #1. Show those big shots that the little guy (or girl) has a chance too!! Watch the trailer and be sucked in here.
