Trick or Treat! The 10 Most Anticipated Movies Coming Out In October 2018
The Prestige Movie Season starts in earnest in October. That means lots of really great movies are gonna be coming out the next 3 months. October is a mix of horror movies and some very anticipated Oscar Bait.
Melissa McCarthy plays Lee Israel, an author who started forging old letters to pay the bills. This looks like arthouse fare, but a strong dramatic turn from McCarthy, to add more complexity to her acting resume.
