Unbreakable
Bruce Willis plays an ordinary man who makes an extraordinary discovery when a train accident leaves his fellow passengers dead -- and him unscathed. Is he unbreakable?

Night Shyamalan's moody follow-up to The Sixth Sense.

Flash Gordon
Flash gets a face-lift in this update of the 1930s comic strip. After being skyjacked (along with comely Dale Arden) to the planet Mongo, Flash (Sam Jones) learns that its merciless ruler, Emperor Ming (Max von Sydow), plans to destroy Earth and take Dale as his concubine. There's only one thing to do: unite Mongo's warring kingdoms, foil Ming's plan and get the girl.
