Exclusive: Discovery Channel will air award-winning documentary The Story of Plastic in honor of Earth Day. An official selection of Mill Valley Film Festival (Audience Award winner) and 2019 Doc NYC, The Story of Plastic looks at the man-made crisis of plastic pollution and the worldwide effect it has on the health of our planet and the people that inhabit it.
Spanning three continents, the film illustrates the ongoing catastrophe: fields full of garbage, veritable mountains of trash; rivers and seas clogged with waste; and skies choked with the poisonous emissions from plastic production and processing. The film features interviews with experts and activists on the frontlines of the fight, revealing the disastrous consequences of the flood of plastic smothering ecosystems and poisoning communities around the world –and the global movement rising up in response. With original animation, archival industry footage starting in the 1930s and first-person accounts, the film distills...

3-D IMAX goes back to outer space for a repeat of some space shuttle material and an extended CGI look at how a Martian landing might be accomplished. It's a grab bag of film sources, and only partly in original 3-D material. Shout! presents it in both 4K Ultra-hd and Blu-ray 3-D, but so far the 4K disc format hasn't a 3-D option. Journey to Space 4K Ultra-hd +3D Blu-ray + Blu-ray Shout! Factory 2015 / Color / 1:78 widescreen / 41 min. / Street Date , 2016 / Narrated by Patrick Stewart Cinematography Sean MacLeod Phillips Film Editor Dale Beldin Original Music Cody Westheimer Produced by Don Kempf, Mark Kresser, Andy Wood Written and Directed by Mark Krenzien

One of the coolest things about chatting with musicians who work in the horror genre is discovering the many unique ways they translate the emotion of fear into musical form – whether it's through traditional orchestration, lyrical songs, sound design, electronic soundscapes, or any combination of the above.

Check out the interview on flipside, where Cody explains his own take on horror themes, shares his creative...
