Seized.  Former Special Forces operative and one-man army Scott Adkins’ son has been kidnapped by members of a cartel. The ransom offer: Adkins gets to see his child unhurt if he wipes out this particular gang’s entire drug trade competition. Adkins only has one choice. He must research, suit up and head into battle carrying more weapons than those found at a Florida BBQ. Will he be able to let those who took his kin get away with it scot-free once his mission is over, though? Don’t bank on it. IMDb gives it 5.2

The Banishing.  Where’s the worst place a vicar, his wife and daughter could move? Okay, there are many answers to the riddle, but we’re guessing a haunted house is up there. This is exactly the scenario with which Linus (John Heffernan), Marianne (Jessica Brown Findlay) and their daughter (Anya McKenna-Bruce) are faced, forcing them to confront their beliefs. Their new home possesses a horrifying secret and the typical exorcism rituals don’t seem to be working. IMDb gives it 4.5

Thriller.  Admittedly this isn’t the most originally titled movie, but the premise appears sufficiently solid. A childhood prank goes horribly wrong, the consequences of which come back to haunt a clique of South Central LA teens at their high school homecoming weekend when the victim returns hell-bent on homicidal revenge. What could be simpler? IMDb gives it 3.6
