Though the killer has confessed to eight of these murders, he has always denied to be responsible for Margot's death. However, the specific mutilations found on her body seem to remove all doubts over his guilt. Today, Alexandre Beck, her husband, is still deeply psychologically injured by the loss of Margot. He temporarily escapes his memories during the day by immersing himself completely in his work as a pediatrician. Outside of that, only the friendship he has formed with Hélène Perkins saves him from total isolation from the rest of the world. But when two new bodies are uncovered near where Margot's body was discovered, Margot's case is reopened. At the same time, Alexandre receives a strange e-mail with a link to a video-surveillance web-cam and a time at which to watch it...

Written by Chevalier Bayard LIVE MUSIC - Cookies & Cream 10:00 pm 18+, $5Cookies & Cream Established in 2007 and birthed from the Winston-Salem hip-hop/jazz/R&B/funk outfit The SoloS Unit, Cookies & Cream is a tantalizing and tangible journey through the best funk, soul, rhythm, blues and groove hits of the 20th and 21st centuries. Its members are decorated musicians, all with their own bands and main projects, and this is their creative release. Not one of their other bands play covers, but some voices are just too good to not use on a classic or two--classics that have an infectious reminiscent quality and make you want to dance. Although a new band, the veteran musicians have already been joined by The Allman Brothers Oteil Burbridge on stage, and played at notable venues all around North Carolina. Oh yeah, and they got a horn section, a mesmerizing singer and one of the most extraordinary keyboardists on the East Coast... but that's a whole other story. | 1$3.50 admission October Tell No One 4:00 pm 6:45 pm 9:30 pm An intense, well-crafted thriller, Tell No One is equal parts heart-pounding and heart-wrenching. - RT SynopsisEight years ago, Margot Beck was murdered by a serial killer.

But a date with a stunning grad student named Consuela (Penelope Cruz) surprisingly turns into a long-term romance, changing David from a confident Lothario into a jealous boyfriend.

LIVE MUSIC by Soul Benefactor After Party immediately following! | 24 Choke 5:00 pm From the author of FIGHT CLUB!CHOKE's protagonist, Victor Mancini, shouldn't be a likable character. He's an unrepentant sex addict who has sex with the woman he's supposed to be sponsoring. He purposely chokes in restaurants so that rich patrons will save him and send him money. And he sometimes wishes that his mother, who suffers from dementia, would just get it over with and die. But because Victor is played--and played quite well--by Sam Rockwell (THE HITCHHIKER'S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY), it's hard not to have a little sympathy for him. He spends his days working at a colonial tourist attraction with his best friend, Denny (Brad William Henke), incurring the wrath of his authenticity-craving boss (Clark Gregg, who also directed and wrote the film). His evenings are spent visiting his mother (Oscar winner Anjelica Huston) in a private hospital, but she mistakes her son for men in her past and wonders when Victor will visit. But young, pretty Dr. Paige Marshall (NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN's Kelly Macdonald) has a radical idea about treatment that may bring his mother's mind back, and Victor's devotion to his mother--and a desire to sleep with Dr. Marshall--makes him eager to try. Tropic Thunder 7:00 pm When the box office champ Ben Stiller's comedic performances aren't a variation on a soft-spoken, put-upon everyman with an eventual fuse, he's usually playing a full-blown absurdist monster with an apoplectic Napoleon complex. These bizarre creations usually adorn films in which the funnyman provides the supporting work (DODGEBALL, HEAVYWEIGHTS), but, whenever he's directing, he's free to build an entire filmic universe around his asinine, ludicrously funny, culture-skewering characters and premises. His ZOOLANDER (2001) bit at the entertainment industry with silly abandon, but Stiller has firmly set TROPIC THUNDER within the realm of sophisticated Hollywood satire. In it, a desperate director named Damien Cockburn (Steve Coogan) trying to make a Vietnam war movie drops his pampered actors into the heart of the jungle. Cockburn's stars include Stiller as an action hero who's starting to make bad career choices, Jack Black as an insecure low-brow comedy star going through heroin withdrawals, and Robert Downey Jr. as an Australian Oscar winner so lost in his "craft" he underwent a procedure to become black for his role. In the jungle, they remain under the delusion that they are still being filmed even after they encounter a dangerous gang of druglords. The film's basic premise has popped up several times since Hollywood's 1970s golden age in films such as THREE AMIGOS! and GALAXY QUEST. Where those films simply blanketed a classic Overconfident Bumbling Idiot comedy showcase with a pop culture lexicon, however, TROPIC THUNDER could have only been made, as on-the-nose at is, by people who have been working in the Hollywood system for years, making cutting observations along the way. Simply put, this raucous satire knows big-budget filmmaking, the delusional narcissism of actors, and even the good points of those actors--perhaps why they're celebrated--like the back of its hand.Somday Productions Snowboard Video Premier 9:00 pm Somthing from Nothing a film by Jacob Sutton, Ethan Frazier, Nick DePriest $3 Entry Fee 9pm-Midnight | 25 Choke 4:00 pm 6:00 pm From the author of FIGHT CLUB!CHOKE's protagonist, Victor Mancini, shouldn't be a likable character.
