Cool Videos: Huey Lewis reenacts the infamous Huey Lewis scene from American Psycho

I love AMERICAN PSYCHO. Christian Bale 's insane performance cemented him as one of my favorite actors and the scene where he explains Huey Lewis and the News to a drunk Jared Leto is cheesy perfection. I love the over the top way Bale portrays Patrick Bateman in this sequence. I recommend this movie to everyone I can and love having discussions about whether the events of the...

Christopher Guest's HBO mockumentary series Family Tree gets a teaser trailer

Cool Videos: Check out this never before seen special effects test footage from The Exorcist

I am a huge fan of THE EXORCIST. I love all of the stories surrounding how it was filmed and the urban legends about the production being cursed. I used to live in the Washington, DC area and visited the fabled staircase many times. It is a powerful movie that holds up very well today. Every Halloween I try to watch it at least once because there are few horror movies that are as good...
