My Sky+ … in October

Hallowe’en comes early for horror fans next month on Sky’s HD movie channels.

For instance, Wrong Turn 3: Left for Dead will debut on October 1 on Sky Movies and the far superior original 17 days later, on Sky Movies Greats.

The latter also has the loathsome Cabin Fever and the movie Guillermo del Toro disowned, Mimic, while Sky Movies will premiere The Collector, Paranormal Activity 2, Solomon Kane, Mirrors 2 and Devil.

There’s also comedy in the form of Shrek Forever After, Dinner for Schmucks, Easy A, Zoolander, Evan Almighty and Diary of a Wimpy Kid; a couple of Woody Allen also-rans (Match Point, Scoop); true modern classics like The Shawshank Redemption, Crash and Blow; and one of George Clooney’s best movies, The American.
