THE EYE
PG-13, 97 minutes

Sydney Wells (Jessica Alba) is an accomplished concert violinist who has been blind since a childhood tragedy. When she undergoes a double corneal transplant, her sight is restored.

But Sydney’s happiness is short-lived as unexplainable and frightening images begin to haunt her. Are they a passing aftermath of her surgery, Sydney’s mind adjusting to sight, a product of her imagination, or something horrifyingly real? As her family and friends begin to doubt her sanity, Sydney is soon convinced that her anonymous eye donor has somehow opened the door to a world only she can now see.

STRANGE WILDERNESS
R, 87 minutes

Following the death of the genial, beloved host of the popular wildlife TV show “Strange Wilderness,” his son Peter (Steve Zahn) takes over the series — and proceeds to ruin it. When the ratings sink to an all-time low and the show is about to be canceled, Pete and his filmmaking partner Fred (Allen Covert) realize they have to come up with “something big” to save the series. It looks like they’ve hit the jackpot when Pete lucks into a map of the Bigfoot’s secret cave. But when the clueless producer leads his ragtag crew to the wilds of Central America to film the elusive beast, they encounter a string of disasters.

OVER HER DEAD BODY
PG-13, 95 minutes

Devastated when his fiancée Kate (Eva Longoria Parker) is killed on their wedding day, Henry (Paul Rudd) reluctantly agrees to consult a psychic named Ashley (Lake Bell) at the urging of his sister Chloe (Lindsay Sloane). Despite his skepticism about her abilities, Henry finds himself falling hard for Ashley, and vice versa. But there is a big snag. Ashley is being haunted by Kate’s ghost, who considers it her heavenly duty to break up Henry and Ashley’s fledgling romance, if it is the last thing she does on this planet — or wherever she is.
