Movies Opening This Weekend: Halloween, Balls of Fury, Death Sentence, The Nines

This is a new weekly feature on Idol Thoughts that will lay out the movies opening in the upcoming weekend, along with director, cast, and links to reviews and trailers.

Idol Thoughts says: If I was going to check out one of these flicks this weekend, it would probably be The Nines, which is from the writer of the classic LA rave movie Go. Vigilante thriller Death Sentence also looks interesting, but it has yet to be reviewed by any major publication.
