A things begin to go terrifyingly wrong, everyone begins to look like a threat and nobody knows whom to trust. Paradise becomes hell as a desperate fight for survival begins.
CraveOnline's Call: Steve Zahn and Milla Jovovich are a honeymooning couple? Come on. But that little imagination stretch aside, this looks pretty cool. Can go wrong with a good island murder fantasy.
Cold Souls

Rating: PG-13
The emotionally drained Paul stumbles upon a “Soul Storage,” a private lab offering New Yorkers the chance to lift the burden of their souls - by extraction. Paul undergoes the procedure, only to discover that it has the shape and size of a chickpea. Unable to function properly without his soul, he rents an alleged Russian poet’s soul, which plunges him into a dreamlike world. He decides to get his soul back and meets Nina, a Russian soul mule, who smuggles souls from Russia to America.
CraveOnline's Rating: Paul Giamatti is always golden, and the concept is certainly an original one. We'll give it a shot.
