Presence
Soderbergh pushes his directorial skills through this nifty paranormal narrative captured wholly through the eyes of the spirit. After a clan with Lucy Liu as Rebekah plus Callina Liang as Chloe settles into their recent residence, the filming device – representing the ghost – shadows their actions.

The premise is enjoyable that remains concise, featuring a surprise that could catch you off guard. October 11th, afternoon and evening times, the Sky channel

This Creepy Thriller
Scott Derrickson's contained scarefest remains effective without requiring a continuation. Taking place in 1978 Denver, a series of child abductions has left the youth on edge. After Finney gets captured by “the Grabber” and imprisoned in a dungeon, he fears a fatal end. However, the old telephone in the room repeatedly calls, with eerie communicators giving advice, and the intuitive nightmares of his sister Gwen may be his salvation. A solid creepfest. October 11th, late evening, the Film4 channel
This Dramatic Portrait
In the conflict between God and Mammon, the victory is clear for greed in Michael Showalter's delightfully tacky true story of the disgraced televangelist and her felon spouse. Andrew Garfield plays the corrupt Bakker, who declares early on, claiming divine approval for wealth. The couple commence capitalizing on the American public's Christian beliefs. It's an extravaganza of poor styling, excessive cosmetics and insincerity, however the lead actress manages to show the character as a sympathetic figure. October 14th, early morning, on Film4
This Espionage Thriller
The current week's additional entry from Steven Soderbergh is a spy mystery as tight similar to the collars used by Fassbender's intelligence officer.
