This weekend, a beloved comic-book character who isn't Superman or an Avenger returns to screens. On the other end of the cinema spectrum is a coming-of-age comedy set in the glory days of the early 1990s.

It looks like another good weekend to hit the theater with a couple of comedy/action flicks hitting the big screen. The first is a reunion of sorts between the director and co-star of the summer 2011 hit 'Bridesmaids,' and the second should sound oddly familiar to anyone who caught 'Olympus Has Fallen' back in March.

I do love me some zombies, and this weekend that's exactly what you've got in store, along with a healthy dose of monsters, at least on the big screen.

It's another big weekend for summer flicks with the return of one of the most famous superheroes of all time, plus an end-of-the-world story about a bunch of stoners played by actors playing themselves. Should be fun whichever path you take.

If you're jonesing for a suspense thriller or comedy with some A-list actors on the big screen in Victoria this weekend, there are a couple of new movies to see, so take your pick.

Fans of 'Insidious' know that the first film ended with one final twist and a bit of a cliffhanger, so it came as no surprise when 'Insidious 2' was announced. Of course, there was always the big question of whether or not it would live up to the sheer terror of the first. With the arrival of the 'Insidious 2' trailer, however, the answer appears to be yes.

Before she goes to college, a virgin overachiever decides to make a list of all the sexual activities she wants to bang out by summer's end.

After the Memorial Day weekend trio of 'Fast & Furious 6,' 'The Hangover Part III' and 'Epic' led to the sixth-biggest box office weekend of all time, this weekend's pair of new releases have a pretty tough act to follow when it comes to creating excitement at theaters, but there are a couple of choices in Victoria.

Wow. This is a monster weekend at the box office. While Memorial Day weekend is usually a good one for theaters, it's rare to see three heavyweights like these all hitting cinemas at the same time.

Great news for makers of an area movie called 'Buck Wild', as the zombie horror comedy picked up the top award at the Hill Country Film Festival. 'Buck Wild' was shot in Goliad and Weesatche had it's big screen debut in April at the Dallas International Film Festival, and at the Hill Country Film Festival in Fredricksburg earlier this month.

Two new films will try to steal audience away from the 'Iron Man 3' juggernaut that just got the summer-movie season off to an explosive start. The first is an adaptation of one of the most popular novels of all time; the second is the latest Tyler Perry-produced comedy, which won't be in Victoria, at least not yet..

This week, we've got two new flicks that could hardly be more different in style, subject matter or personnel. The first is a Michael Bay-directed action thriller starring The Rock, the second a family comedy about a middle-aged divorced couple starring Diane Keaton. Take your pick!
