Forks Over Knives
Two out of every three of us are overweight. Cases of diabetes are exploding, especially amongst our younger population. About half of us are taking at least one prescription drug. Major medical operations have become routine, helping to drive health care costs to astronomical levels. Heart disease, cancer and stroke are the country's three leading causes of death, even though billions are spent each year to "battle" these very conditions. Millions suffer from a host of other degenerative diseases.
Could it be there's a single solution to all of these problems? A solution so comprehensive but so utterly straightforward, that it's mind-boggling that more of us haven't taken it seriously?
FORKS OVER KNIVES examines the profound claim that most, if not all, of the so-called "diseases of affluence" that afflict us can be controlled, or even reversed, by rejecting our present menu of animal-based and processed foods. The major storyline in the film traces the personal journeys of a pair of pioneering yet under-appreciated researchers, Dr. T. Colin Campbell and Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn.

The Devil's Carnival
An obsessed father (Flanery), a kleptomaniac (Evigan), and a gullible teenager (Lowndes), are cast from Heaven by God (Sorvino). They find themselves wandering the frightening, unsympathetic midway of "The Devil's Carnival". Unbeknownst to these condemned attendees, their lives—and the sins that paved their paths to Hell—have become tethered to specific fables in a book read by Lucifer (Zdunich).
