The month of August traditionally features the last of Summer’s blockbuster movies, but it also begins to usher in titles that mark the beginning of the Fall movie season. The end of summer doesn’t mean the end of quality cinematic fare, as there are many promising movie choices hitting theaters this Fall. With that, I present you readers with this Fall Movie Guide.

Below, I have compiled a list of movies, complete with trailers, to help peak the interest and potentially whet the appetite of fellow moviegoers. Some dates may be tentative, as certain titles will be in limited release. Also, some trailers may feature mature content, CONSIDER YOURSELF WARNED.

I am personally excited to see Straight Outta Compton, The Martian, Black Mass, The Green Inferno, Bridge of Spies, and Crimson Peak. But I am also intrigued by the likes of Digging for Fire, Before We Go, Mississippi Grind, Sicario, Stonewall, Freeheld, Legend, Beasts of No Nation, Experimenter and Rock the Kasbah. What are some of the movies you readers are looking forward to this fall? I would love to hear what they are and why…so feel free to let me know in the comments section.

Each movie title below is linked to its corresponding IMDb page, so just click the title for further information about a particular film. Those films that will be opening in limited release have an asterisk after the release date. Any other details, including movie times and ticket purchasing, can be found by visiting FANDANGO.

Remember to check back in November for a guide to this Holiday Season’s movies.
