The main role should be an unknown in "Fifty Shades of Grey"

Charlie Hunnam, 33, dropped out of next year’s “Fifty Shades of Grey” movie adaptation. Hunnam’s “immersive TV schedule” was too much for him to adequately prepare for the role, the studios behind the movie said.

Danny Trejo (Machete), Anthony Michael Hall (The Dark Knight) and Oscar nominee Mickey Rourke (The Wrestler) star in this action movie packed Western with an engaging story for vengeance. The story begins with the murder their own leader, Guerrero Hernandez (Trejo), in a cold-blooded power grab. Sentenced to eternity in hell, Guerrero finds himself confronted by Satan himself (Rourke), offering a daring proposition: deliver the six souls of his former gang and traitors so in that way he will escape damnation. With time running out, he sets out on a brutal rampage to avenge his own death.

The movie gives us exactly the kind of movie we expect, so this is not a bad thing at all and this DVD action film deserves to be seen in the theater. Despite of being a typical low budget DVD action film as a fan of these movie genres, only in 24 hours Guerrero Hernandez (Danny Trejo) has to kill his six enemies and save his soul from Mickey Rourke (The Wrestler). This is a well structured revenge movie that makes to think about supernatural elements in it. Definitely is original and creative with lots of fun, no matter how crazy and bad things got at times. It’s simply a watchable movie, even if it doesn’t appear to you that way. Give it a shot, it may surprise with a river of blood.

This master piece will be available in October 22nd on Blu Ray combo pack with DVD in Spanish and English languages with French, Spanish and English subtitles.

A thrilling documentary directed by Nick Ryan and written by Mark Monroe comes with K2, commonly known as Savage Mountain, is an extension of the northwestern Himalayan Mountain range and is located in the remote region between Pakistan and China. With an unprecedented fatality rate of one in four climbers, it has rightfully earned the title of the second most murderous mountain. But with any high risk sport comes the love of the challenge, and in August 2008 22 climbers from several international expeditions converged on High Camp of K2, the last stop before the summit. Forty-eight hours later, 11 had been killed or simply vanished into thin air. Like a horror movie come to life, it was as if the mountain began stealing lives, one climber at a time. The Summit is a seamless pastiche of the climbers’ firsthand footage, after-the-fact interviews and reenactments. This was not just a tragedy for one group of climbers, it was members of several groups who were all climbing simultaneously and with each other’s help and it focuses on the mystery behind one extraordinary man, Ger McDonnell, who was left behind in the death zone as his best friend searched in vain to find him, rescuing several others. As the legend surrounding McDonnell and the ten others grows, fearless new climbers are drawn to test themselves against the deadliest mountain on Earth.

The Summit, entered a mental “death zone” long before they ever set foot on the mountain especially when the team gunned for the summit, knowing they wouldn’t have enough daylight to make it back down to the closest camp.

David Letterman is more successful than ever

David Letterman’s Late Show contract extended through 2015. Letterman’s 66 years old has been hosting the Late Show with David Letterman on CBS since 1993. Over the years, the man has had trouble competing with Jay Leno, often losing to NBC’s late night host. Certainly good news for Letterman’s fans whose every evening program has been successful in recent years.

Miley Cyrus had a chance to grow into a classy, sophisticated artist so Bangerz is the Miley Cyrus’s fourth album due out on Oct. 8.

Knott's Scary Farm will be your best nightmare

Special Coverage for GalaTView.com

For all my readers I’m not a big fan of horror and haunted attractions, but I have to say, that with the exception of only one other haunt, I would say that Knott’s was my favorite thus far. When I knew that I was going to cover Knott’s Scary Farm I noticed the monsters not trying as hard as other haunted attractions. Even some of the new mazes this year are usually the most popular, you will be part of the long queue lines but this is not a real issue if you are really interested in each attraction and most of them are worth it.

Some highlights

The Trick or Treat maze, where you can really trick or treat and the fog machines working overtime near the entrances, making for easy scares but lot more monsters too and they were enthusiastic. I usually get a little disappointed that the monsters seem to lose that toward the end of the night and the lack of lighting for some areas of the park.

I also have to remark El Dia De Los Muertos some monsters do not hide, but stand there waiting for people in plain sight. Towards the end, it gets a little better with the Aztec-type skeletons coming at you this was really wonderful and people with Hispanic heritage will  appreciate a small tribute to this attraction. I liked how detailed some of their costumes were and make up as well. Thankfully the employees and guides would shine their flashlights and kindness and help all Media team navigate thru.

Finally, I loved the fact that most of the actors still haunt in that area even though its deserted makes it even creepier so becomes this place in a magical experience for some prices may vary but you can get good deals on Knott’s Web site. Enjoy your creepy trip!
