It's Halloween season, and that means a few things. One: you should have an amazing costume ready (costume choices are a tricky thing but thats not what were here to discuss today). Another is that on the TV you will be treated to every horror, pseudo-horror, alien, monster, and psychopath movie ever made. If you tune into the sci-fi channel, you can watch every single one of Stephen Kings novels turned into a wonderfully bad movie.

Released last Tuesday on DVD, the movie follows a young couple, Ben Murphy (played by John Krasinski of The Office) and Sadie Jones (played by former pop star Mandy Moore), who have a seemingly perfect relationship, until they agree to go through a pre-marital training course, conducted by Sadies childhood minister, Reverend Frank (Robin Williams).
The Undergraduate Theatre Collective's Fall 2007 season got off on the right foot last weekend, as the Brandeis Players hilarious production of Paul Rudnicks I Hate Hamlet, directed by David Pepose 08, ran for four performances.
The play follows Andrew Rally (Brian Melcher 10), star of a recently-canceled television medical drama, as he moves to New York and is confronted with the terrifying opportunity to star as Hamlet at Shakespeare in the Park.
The Abraham Shapiro Academic Complex was abuzz last Friday afternoon, as students, alumni, faculty, administration, and parents mingled over the mellow rhythms of African music.
As part of its 10th Anniversary celebrations, the International Center for Ethics, Justice, and Public Life invited back Ethics Center Student Fellowship Alumni to recount their experiences in South Africa during Africa Remembered.
