Skip the bar scene and take in a movie tomorrow night

Opening This Week:

<http://www.dustinputman.com/reviews/d/11_dontgointhewoods.htm> Don't Go in
the Woods
★★★ (out of ★★★★)

Now OnDemand, Select Cities Jan 13th - Horror and musical lovers unite, have
I got a movie for you! As far as low-budget horror goes, "Don't Go in the
Woods" is made in grand spirits and with undeniable know-how. It's
conventional and truly one-of-a-kind all at once. There's nothing else out
there like it.

★★★ (out of ★★★★)

Now OnDemand, Select Cities Feb 3rd - Never slow because it's never boring,
but Ti West does enjoy extending the quiet spaces in between the horror for
maximum effectiveness. It is a style that works exquisitely for an auteur
with his expertise. "The Innkeepers" is a beguiling entertainment as it
deals out its grab-bag of soul-searching, good-willed humor, and
particularly serious gasps.

<http://www.dustinputman.com/reviews/i/11_ironlady.htm> The Iron Lady
★★ (out of ★★★★)

Select Cities - Feels especially biased, soft-centered, and unfocused, never
finding a concrete story to tell. Without Meryl Streep, there would be
nothing special to set "The Iron Lady" apart from a dime-a-dozen TV movie.
The material doesn't live up to the actress' uncanny commitment.
