It's Malaysian movie mayhem this month! Here are our picks!

The 9th European Film Festival gives you a break from Hollywood this month. From 13-23 November, Golden Screen Cinemas in MidValley, 1 Utama and Pavilion are screening some films like those mentioned here, but be sure to check out the entire list on GSC’s website.

With the Harry Potter series approaching its end, the world needs another literary and movie franchise to obsess over. With that considered, the premiere of Twilight, the movie, seems perfectly timed.

Bangkok Dangerous is a remake of the 1999 flick by The Pang Brothers. Helmed by the same directors, their Hollywood version follows the original’s plot line closely except, they now have Nicolas Cage in the lead playing Joe, a hitman who wearily travels to Bangkok to methodically carry out four hits – all in a day’s work, really.

Fluffy pink comedies are not the stuff of great intellect, but they somehow have been dubbed to empower women anyway. So if you liked Legally Blonde, you should by right, get a kick out of House Bunny. And considering Anna Faris is blessed with the sole talent to satirize blond ambition, casting could not have been a more perfect choice.

Here at KLue, we’ve been following filmmaker Azharr Rudin’s career for a while now. Director of the well-received The Amber Sexalogy series of shorts, Azharr now moves on to the next logical step: his first feature-length film which will be shown at the GSC International Screens come 25 September. Entitled Punggok Rindukan Bulan (or This Longing), the film is about a young boy, Sidi (Saeful Nazhif Satria), and his father Adman (Sharonizam Noor) who are both struggling to cope with the sudden absence of their mother and wife (Maya Karin).

The theme for this year’s FreedomFilmFest is “Democratic Space – Making Room for Human Rights”, chosen to draw attention to the deteriorating state of state democracy. What is democracy? Where exactly are the democratic spaces in Malaysia? What can we do as citizens to reclaim these spaces? Where do the issues of culture, identity, race, religion and development fit in this abyss?

Despite its name, the iconic '60s TV series Speed Racer has certainly taken its time to make its theatrical debut.
