Ridley Scott's on Another Alien's Trail in Low-Budget Horror 'Phoenix Forgotten'
In an endless sea of found footage movies clogging up our DVD charts it's refreshing to actually see one that is not only entertaining but has an actual budget behind it.

Stephen King's latest adaptation CELL is set to premiere today on the BIG screen as part of the Horror Channel's Frightfest event here in the U.K. This is fantastic news for King fans as after more than 2 years of conflicting reports we're finally getting to see it. This, according to rumor, is down to studio interference that has held Cell back from debuting and left many (including the Fright-fest organizers) believing the film wouldn't get an official cinema release.
