A Hologram For The King debuts here in Ottawa at Cineplex SilverCity Gloucester and at Landmark Cinemas Kanata.
BASKIN is a 2015 Turkish horror from debuting feature writer-director Can Evrenol, adapted from his 2013 short film of the same name. Here, a group of police officers end up fighting for their lives trying to escape being trapped and picked off by a Satanic cult. Baskin screens here with English subtitles and for a limited run at Ottawa's Mayfair Theatre.
EVERYBODY WANTS SOME!! is a teen frat farce set in the 1980s from critically-acclaimed writer-director Richard Linklater.

THE HUNTSMAN: WINTER'S WAR is a prequel of the 2012 two-time Oscar-nominated fantasy, Snow White And The Huntsman.
