The biggest surprise on last night's Pretty Little Liars wasn't that Jason Dilaurentis fell down an elevator shaft and survived; it was that sweet, sweet Emily Fields is somehow even sexier when she gets mad.
Here are some of our favorite tweets of the night.
We gave AfterEllen fans Paige and Emily, and all they want is Spencer!

He may not be her type, but in a grey t-shirt and messy ponytail, Spencer you are freaking lesbian catnip, lady. #BooRadleyVanCullen

I would pay all the money to see Paige's Dark Knight duke it out with Spencer's Riddler. Hollywood, that one was free. #BooRadleyVanCullen

Spencer looks better smack in the middle of a mental breakdown than most people do on prom night.

A Priest, A Rabbi and Your Mom Walk Into a Movie Theatre…
You might think that your Mom disapproves of all horror films on principle. At least that’s the stereotype: the wagging finger; the warning that horror films cause nightmares. But the truth is that this is merely a bit of parental judo, reverse psychology designed to push us to watching horror films, because nothing warns us and upholds the moral order like a horror film.
What are the elements of a horror film after all? There is a monster; there is a sense of danger (as critic Joe Bob Briggs puts it “Anyone can die at any time”); the deaths are usually gruesome; and there is usually a moral. If you think about it, fairy tales and horror films are not that far apart – they are even closer to one another in the fairy tales original Grimm-er forms,...

Rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars
The first of three paranormal animations to be released in quick succession as the calendar creeps towards October 31st, Chris Butler and Sam Fell’s Paranorman is wonderfully drenched in nostalgia, both for B-Movie horrors and the best family films: it’s an Amblin film made for that slightly weird kid with the Nightmare Before Christmas lunch-box and the disconnected snark. The usual suspects are here, pulled in from The Goonies and Stand By Me, played through a Tim Burton-tinged filter with some broad comic strokes and an irresistible story that throws up some pleasant twists and plays on the usual cursed community model.
Like the best family films, ParaNorman never panders to the audience who will probably stream in thanks to the medium used and the PG rating, but the story actually packs some scares in that will make it a bad choice for...

As noted in the Visions lineup announcement, the Toronto International Film Festival (September 9 through 18) has released some of its most anticipated lineups today: Wavelengths, Contemporary World Cinema, Future Projections — and here, Galas and Special Presentations. We're taking them one at a time, first posting them program by program with descriptions provided by the festival — and then returning over the coming hours and days to add links and further notes.
Galas
Marc Forster's Machine Gun Preacher, an inspirational true story, about Sam Childers, a former drug-dealing criminal who undergoes an astonishing transformation and finds an unexpected calling as the saviour of hundreds of kidnapped and orphaned children. Gerard Butler (300) delivers a searing performance as Childers in Golden Globe®-nominated director Marc Forster's (Monster's Ball, Finding Neverland) moving story of violence and redemption. Machine Gun Preacher was previously announced as a Special Presentation.
David Hare's Page Eight. Tiff's Closing Night Film.

Rebecca Hall in The Awakening I may sound like a spoiled brat when I say this, but the fact neither Carnage or Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy were part of this morning's Toronto Film Festival announcement sort of bums me out. However, there are other films that were added that do make my ears perk up, none more so than the addition of Whit Stillman's Damsels in Distress as well as a couple of films I didn't expect and some I had never heard of.
To begin, the closing night film which I guess will serves as something of a Tinker, Tailor replacement, David Hare's (screenwriter of The Hours and The Reader) Page Eight starring Bill Nighy, Rachel Weisz, Michael Gambon, Ralph Fiennes and Judy Davis. The film tells the story of Johnny Worricker (Nighy), an MI5 agent who has learned to keep his observational skills perpetually operational. However,...

Tiff has just announced the final batch of films slated to hit the fest in September. The number of additions is overwhelming especially found in the completed Gala and Special Presentation lineups.

First-time feature filmmaker Joshua Grannell sent along the second teaser poster for his fright feature All About Evil (the first can be seen here). This piece of art, which you can see below, features sisters/actresses Jade and Nikita Ramsey, who play Vera and Veda, described by Grannell as “killer twins who were institutionalized earlier in life after murdering their family at 7 years of age. They are silent but deadly and were born knowing all about evil.”
The film tells the story of an introverted librarian (played by Natasha Lyonne) who inherits her late father’s decomposing movie house. In order to get business moving, she churns out a series of gory shorts, in which the gore and murders are all too real. The film co-stars Thomas Dekker (of From Within and the Nightmare On Elm Street remake, among others), Cassandra Peterson a.k.a. Elvira, Deadgirl’s Noah Segan...
