While it may sound dark, Soul Surfer is an inspiring story about faith, determination, family, and hope. Roger Ebert called it, "a wholesome movie."
Run (Hulu Original)
Another horror movie coming out just in time for Thanksgiving is Run. Starring Sarah Paulson, the film follows a mother and daughter relationship as one learns the truth about the other.

On review aggregate site Rotten Tomatoes, the film was given the critical consensus, "If its chilly sense of dread never quite becomes spine-tingling terror, Amulet remains smart, solidly disquieting fun for genre fans seeking slow-building horror."
