Movies
Pan’s Labyrinth
Don’t let the subtitles scare you away from watching this movie. Pan’s Labyrinth (El Laberinto del Fauno) has already a rack of awards and we now get to see it in North America. This movie is fantastic and is not to be missed. Do yourself a favor and see it on big screen you will be kicking yourself if you wait for the DVD.
“Pan’s Labyrinth” is the story of a young girl that travels with her pregnant mother to live with her mother’s new husband in a rural area up North in Spain, 1944. After Franco´s victory. The girl lives in an imaginary world of her own creation and faces the real world with much chagrin. Post-war Fascist repression is at its height in rural Spain and the girl must come to terms with that through a fable of her own. www.imdb.com

DVD
Jackass Number Two (Unrated Widescreen Edition)
The film for the sadist and fun loving who can handle graphic material.
Jackass isn’t for everyone but I sure was happy to see the whole Jack Ass gang together again..
For fans who thought the stakes couldn’t be raised any higher and the bar couldn’t be lowered any further, the original cast and crew of the stunt comedy sensation that swept the globe return for another round of jaw-dropping feats that are guaranteed to have viewers wincing through their laughter. Jeff Tremaine directs, and Johnny Knoxville, Bam Margera, Chris Pontius, Steve-O, Ryan Dunn, and Jason “Wee Man” Acuna return to the screen to endure more pain and humiliation than ever thought possible on the big screen. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide www.amazon.com
