Ah, Pixar! It seems that they can do no wrong. Even their weakest films are generally leagues ahead of most studio features, and it all comes down to one thing: story. Yes, that's right, story. If they can get you crying with storyboards and pencil sketches, then it doesn't matter how technically proficient their films are. And yet, they manage to push the boundaries of technology every single time....

Since then, there have been dozens of films, notably Children of the Damned , and The Omen , focusing on evil children, but the scariest concepts come from those without a...

In the case of Trick 'R Treat , director/writer Michael Dougherty's film homage to...

Initially dubbed "Disney's Folly", people were concerned that the colors in Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs would be so vibrant that viewers might go blind.
