Elementary School Teacher Shows ‘Saw’ to His Class, Says “This Will Be Your First Horror Movie”
We've all had that teacher at least once in our lives. You know the one. The oddball. The eccentric. The one whose bizarre worldview and teaching methods have a lasting (and not always positive) impact on his or her students. However, the award for the year's strangest teacher undoubtedly has to go to Jean-Baptiste Clément, a sixth grade math teacher who subjected his students to James Wan's horror film 'Saw.'
‘White House Down’ Clip: Watch Out! President Jamie Foxx Has a Rocket Launcher
Few summer movies look as fun as 'White House Down.'

‘Captain America 2′ – Check Out Cap’s New Costume!
In the comic book world, superheroes modify their costumes on a pretty regular basis, so it's not surprising that Chris Evans' cinematic Captain America has already gone through three costumes.

But what about his new uniform for 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier'? Well, a newly leaked piece of concept art gives us our best look yet at the redesigned outfit.

Weekend Box Office Report: ‘The Purge’ Wipes Out ‘The Internship’
For the second week in a row, a David has taken down a Goliath.

‘Escape Plan’ Poster: Schwarzenegger and Stallone vs. the Prison System
'Escape Plan' (previously titled 'The Tomb') feels like a movie we've been waiting 30 years to see: a team-up between action icons Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger.

The first poster for this sure-to-be-amazing-even-if-it's-not film has arrived and it has us pumped.
