'Tyler Perry's Temptation' and 25 Movies That Sound Like Perfumes
Lionsgate
There's a movie coming out this week called "Tyler Perry's Temptation." It has nothing to do with any personal temptation of Tyler Perry himself — it's a movie he directed called "Temptation," but it's Tyler Perry, so his name's in the title.
But it sounds more like a perfume than a movie, right? According to futurist Ray Kurzweil, there's a 37.6% chance that there will be a perfume called "Tyler Perry's Temptation" by 2018.
That got us thinking: What other movies out there could be perfumes? Here are 25 that you could spray on your neck and wrist before a night out. Get More »
Most Effed Up Spells in Witch Movies
Warner Bros.
In "Beautiful Creatures," Lena Duchannes traipses into the damp, small town of Gatlin, South Carolina with the sole intention of remaining a good witch. There are those in her lineage who want nothing more than for her to join the dark side upon turning the dreaded age of 16, but the gal's got eyes for a little human boy named Ethan and just wants to play nice, for crying out loud.
Most of her predecessors in cinematic spell-casting, however, were not quite so noble. In fact, a lot of them would just do some downright effed up stuff. Let's review some of the worst. Get More »
New on DVD and Blu-ray: 'Dark Shadows' and More
Warner Bros.
This week: The latest collaboration between Tim Burton and Johnny Depp is a remake of the '60s soap opera "Dark Shadows" with Depp playing the centuries-old vampire Barnabas Collins, who is having an amusingly difficult time adjusting to the weird and wonderful '70s.
Also new this week is the family drama "People Like Us" with Chris Pine, the Blu-ray debut of Disney's animated "Cinderella," a Blu-ray collection of the first seven "A Nightmare on Elm Street" movies and "Universal Monsters: The Essential Collection" in high definition for the first time.

Chloe Moretz: I'd Rather Be a Vamwitch
You may know Chloe Moretz as the potty-mouthed Hit Girl in "Kick-Ass," but, in her latest film, "Dark Shadows," she steps back in time to the 1970s and gets a taste of the supernatural. But, when asked if she'd rather be a witch or a vampire, the 15-year-old takes a rather interesting approach. Get More »
GALLERY: Johnny Depp Steps Out of the 'Shadows'
We're trying really hard to keep this terrible pun to ourselves, but it's just not worth the fight. This Hot People Looking Hot gallery takes an inDepp-th look at the star of "Dark Shadows."
Annnnd ... cue the requisite eye roll.
But, bad jokes aside, Johnny Depp really is a character, and we mean that in every way possible. From the roles he chooses (Captain Jack Sparrow, anyone?) to his own persona (making music with Marilyn Manson) and all the blue-hued glasses in between, he's both pleasing to the eye and entertaining to the core.
You know, kinda like this gallery.
GALLERY: Eva Green Draws Us to the 'Dark' Side
Agent 007 sure knows how to pick 'em.
Eva Green was the Bond babe in "Casino Royale" who stole our hearts with that smoldering glare alone.
The raven-haired beauty switches it up with a retro blonde hairdo in "Dark Shadows" as Angelique, a magical temptress who just wants Johnny Depp's Barnabas to fall for her. Barnabas turns her character down harshly, so she gets revenge by cursing him to be a vampire. Ouch, but seriously, who would turn this lady looker down?
Check out our gallery of the French femme fatale's best looks and try to withstand her bewitching beauty.
GALLERY: Awkward Family Photos in Movies
Since the dawn of time, people with nothing in common and zero to say to each other have been coexisting in homes against their will. We call this a "family." But it wasn't until the invention of the camera that every uneasy hug and forced smile between these disparate souls could be preserved eternally.
Thanks to the hilarious website Awkward Family Photos, these embarrassing moments are now available for the entire world to mock. And with Tim Burton set to release "Dark Shadows" (May 11), a gothic comedy about a frighteningly dysfunctional family, we're opening up our own photo album of movies' most motley clans.
Sink Your Teeth Into 9 'Dark Shadows' Clips
Oddball director Tim Burton continues his association with mancrush Johnny Depp in "Dark Shadows," their eighth collaboration together.
Based on the late-'60s TV soap opera of the same name, the story follows 200-year-old vampire Barnabas Collins (Depp) as he awakens in the 1970s to find his family on the verge of ruin. This campy take on the cult series should be ghoulish fun in an "Addams Family" vein.
