Dracula Untold
The bloodsucker's sinister origins are revealed in this action-packed reworking of the vampire myth. Back in an alternate 15th century, Transylvanian prince Vlad Tepes (Luke Evans) makes a momentous decision. His land has been invaded by the armies of Mehmed the Second (Dominic Cooper) - leader of the Ottoman Empire and his own stepbrother. To protect his wife Mirena (Sarah Gadon) and prevent his son being taken as a child soldier, Vlad scales the forbidding Broken Tooth Mountain to forge a deal with a demon known as an ekimmu (Charles Dance). Granted supernatural powers to defeat his enemies, Vlad is also cursed to mutate into a monster! Filmed on location in Northern Ireland, first-time director Gary Shore's imaginative epic takes its cue from the gruesome legend of Vlad the Impaler. This also inspired original 'Dracula' author Bram Stoker. 'Hobbit' actor Luke Evans delivers a star-making performance in the lead role.

What We Did On Our Holiday
Rosamund Pike, David Tennant and Billy Connolly star in a heart-warming comedy about an eventful family holiday. Doug (David Tennant) and Abi (Rosamund Pike) are going through a painful divorce. Doug's father Gordie's (Billy Connolly) birthday party couldn't have come at a more inconvenient time. Heading off for the Scottish Highlands, the bickering couple issue their three young children with strict instructions to keep the divorce a secret. This is more easily said than done. To keep track of the lies she's expected to tell the extended family, sensible nine-year-old Lottie records them in a notebook. Four-year-old Jess copes with the stress by forming a bizarre attachment to a brick called Norman. But it's middle child Mickey's enthusiasm for Vikings, shared with his grandfather, that proves to have the most dramatic and unexpected consequences! This refreshing feelgood family comedy is written and directed by TV veterans Andy Hamilton and Guy Jenkin, creators of 'Outnumbered'.
