Darker, yet brighter ...

A pregnant woman goes on a killing spree at the behest of her unborn child in "Prevenge."

From the Czech Republic, the biopic of a troubled young woman who became a mass murderer, "I, Olga Hepnarova."

A study of the ways of the East German secret police, from a personal point of view, "Karl Marx City."

Another dark tale, a documentary about the death of a noted jazz trumpeter killed by his common law wife in the 1970s, "I Called Him Morgan."

Is a grown-up Kiernan Shipka (Sally on TV's "Mad Men") enough to draw us to a brooding horror story set at a boarding school for girls? It's "The Blackcoat's Daughter."

A self-explanatory documentary about the most unique filmmaker of his generation, "David Lynch: The Art of Life."

Based on a New Yorker magazine piece, a documentary about a mentally ill woman who eventually starved to death in an abandoned farmhouse, "God Knows Where I Am."
