Kill the Messenger largely succeeds at opening old conspiracy wounds. When is the truth too big to tell? 9/11 conspiracies dominated conversation afterwards, but recent history has been littered with one story of government betrayal after another. In Kill the Messenger , we see what was perhaps the first story to go viral, leading its writer to suffer greatly under its torrid but largely unsubstantiated revelations. The film largely succeeds, potentially paving its way to an Oscar invite in February, even if it's a bit short on specifics. San Jose Mercury News writer Gary Webb (Jeremy Renner) is writing stories about government seizures of drug homes in the 1990's, when a much bigger fish presents itself on his hook: for years, the American government has been pumping drugs into ghetto inner-city neighborhoods to fund the Nicaraguan Contra rebels against Communism.

After two terrible months, October shapes up nicely in our On the Radar Preview. We hate being right. Last month, we predicted that the Domestic Box Office for September 2014 would be one of the worst in recent memory, and it sadly kept its promise, slogging in well under 2013 with $273.8m and nearly beating the venerable 2001 haul of $268.5m. The quarter was also the worst since 1996, taking in just $2.5b - yes, that period includes Summer 'blockbusters.' With these infamies behind us, we now move into the pre-Oscar/Holiday film season, a period that usually delivers memorable features while a few even make their case for February considerations. This month, we find an appealing mix of WWII tank drama, spine-tingling horror, as well as a few genuine Oscar contenders. Here is our On the Radar preview for October 2014: Annabelle (October 1st) Plot: A couple begin to experience terrifying supernatural occurrences involving a vintage doll shortly after their hom...
