'All Night' (feat. Knox Fortune) by Chance the Rapper - 2016

We have another TWO Parter, this week on @EchoChamberFP https://www.instagram.com/echochamberfp/ In 'Part 1' we go drama, horror and mystery!!!

'Trust' is directed by Brian DeCubellis, who co-wrote with Kristen Lazarian, & K.S. Bruce, is based on a play called 'Push', which Lazarian wrote. In this sexy and twisty ride, New York gallery owner Brooke (Victoria Justice) and her husband Owen (Matthew Daddario) each face exceptional temptations, with most unexpected results.

'The Call' is directed by Timothy Woodward Jr and written by Patrick Stibbs Four friends. One phone call. 60 seconds to stay alive. In the fall of 1987, a group of small-town friends, Chris (Chester Rushing), Tonya (Erin Sanders), Zack (Mike Manning), Brett (Sloane Morgan Siegel) must survive the night in the home of a sinister couple, Edith (Lin Shaye) & Edward (Tobin Bell) after a tragic accident. Needing only to make a single phone call, the request seems ordinary until they realize that this call could change their life… or end it. This simple task quickly spirals into terror as their worst nightmares become reality.

M. Night Shyamalan is back with 'Old' an adaptation of Pierre Oscar Lévy & Frederik Peeters graphic novel 'Sandcastle' The film follows a family on a tropical holiday who discover that the secluded beach where they are relaxing for a few hours is somehow causing them to age rapidly … reducing their entire lives into a single day.

Today we look ahead to jam packed weekend of action!

It all starts with 'Legacy Fighting Alliance's' first trip to Brazil. 'LFA 111' is full of Brazilian talent, with Ary Farias vs Marcos Breno in the Co-main and Rangel De Sa vs Ismael Bonfim close the show.

The Lightweights take centre stage at 'UFC on ESPN 26: Makhachev vs. Moisés' as well. As we see if Mateusz Gamrot can overcome his biggest challenge or if Jeremy Stephens still has the dog in him. Then Islam Makhachev vs Thiago Moisés get their first Main event and the opportunity to show the division and world, that they're ready to play in the shark tank!

And on Sunday, we're back with 'Legacy Fighting Alliance's' as they close out their stay in Brazil with a Welterweight Grand Prix to crown a new champion! Diego Dias, Carlos Leal and Gabriel Bonfim & Brenner Alberth all vie for gold.
