Brothers of the Head
A mind-bending odyssey of conjoined twins Tom and Barry Howe (Luke and Harry Treadaway), plucked from obscurity by a 1970s music promoter and groomed into a boy band. The twins grapple with impossible love, artistic rivalry and a dark inner life, but they learn to embrace their freakishness and spit it back in the form of searing punk rock songs.
The Illusionist
At the turn of the century, brilliant stage magician Eisenheim (Edward Norton) returns to Vienna to win back his childhood love, Sophie (Jessica Biel), who is engaged to Crown Prince Leopold (Rufus Sewell). The two rekindle their love, but when Chief Inspector Uhl (Paul Giamatti) exposes them, Sophie is mysteriously murdered. Eisenheim summons his extraordinary powers in a desperate attempt to overcome Uhl, prove the Prince guilty and bring down the monarchy before it destroys him.
Snakes on a Plane
When a young man witnesses a brutal mob murder, it falls to FBI agent Neville Flynn (Samuel L. Jackson) to escort his charge safely from Hawaii to Los Angeles to testify. But in an act of self-preservation, the crime boss facing prison smuggles hundreds of poisonous snakes onto the commercial aircraft in a crate timed to release its deadly cargo halfway over the Pacific.
