By -Nate Bethea · Thursday, Oct. 28,2004 12 a.m.

It's a small consolation that Elliott Smith's posthumous release is not by any means the kind of opportunistic barrel scraping that you see with Tupac Shakur's material.

Guitarist Jim Adkins, drummer Zach Lind, guitarist Tom Linton and bassist Mitch Porter all experiment in rock on Futures.

An ode to All Hallow's Eve

By C. Warner Sills · Wednesday, Oct. 27,2004 11:39 p.m.

Well, it's that time again. Pumpkins are being sold all over town, the candy industry is preparing for its biggest day of the season and somewhere a posse of young hoodlums is compiling a stash of toilet paper and fresh grade-A eggs. Yes, it's time for everyone's favorite holiday, Halloween.

Really, what the Helsing?

By -Paul Straw · Wednesday, Oct. 27,2004 11:31 p.m.

After advertising as a movie monster royale, "Van Helsing" had so much promise behind it. The DVD follows in the same vein; it looks really good but that's about all there is to it.

Prepare to pee yourself

By Zach Noe Towers · Wednesday, Oct. 27,2004 11:21 p.m.

Finally, a film that lives up to everything scary movies are known for, and then some.
