When celebrated author Simon Woodburn (Robin Steffen) drops dead before completing the final chapter of his epic saga, his publisher Travis Levon (Rickey Bird) discovers that the unfinished novel has inexplicably taken on a life of its own. Spurred on by his badgering boss Gavin (James MacPherson) to finish the novel before alerting the authorities, Travis sits down at the computer and starts typing. Much to his horror, the reluctant ghost writer finds that every terrible thing he types out quickly manifests itself in reality. Now, in order for Travis and his girlfriend Kelly (Jenna Marie Bowers) to make it out of this nightmare alive, he'll have to think of a happy ending before the story consumes them both. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Tim Burton directs the fantasy drama Big Fish, based on the book Big Fish: A Novel of Mythic Proportions by Southern writer/illustrator Daniel Wallace. Billy Crudup plays William Bloom, a young man who never really knew his dying father, Edward (Albert Finney) outside of the tall tales he told about growing up, making his way, and meeting his mother (played as a young woman by Alison Lohman and in older age by Jessica Lange). During Edward's last days, William and his wife Josephine (Marion Cotillard) hold bedside vigil as the old man recollects elaborate memories of his youth (in which he is played by Ewan McGregor). Still doubting the the legends and folklore, William makes a journey to meet a mysterious woman (Helena Bonham Carter) from whom Edward had bought property. Steve Buscemi and Danny De Vito also star. ~ Andrea LeVasseur, Rovi

12-year-old Davey Tucker (Jeremy James Kissner) hates his nomadic existence as the son of a travelling circus clown. He is also somewhat ashamed of the fact that his father Leroy (Phil Fondacaro) is a dwarf. Into this tense situation comes Heavenly casewalker Monica (Roma Downey), posing as a clown-in-training. This time, Monica's assignment is twofold: to teach Davey a lesson about tolerance--with the help of a overweight little girl named Maryjane (Rachel Snow)--and to help Leroy overcome his fear of taking over as the circus' new "human cannonball". ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
