R.I.P. Spencer Pratt's beard!

As part of ex-Hills star Spencer Pratt's recent wild behavior, he grew a wild beard, which has recently met it's demise. In a Funny-or-Die-esque video, Spencer posted a video featuring his assistant taking a hunting knife to his scruffy face. Enjoy!

Buried

The premiere of the new Ryan Reynolds vehicle Buried began with what many expected to be a hitch, as the beginning of the film was met with prolonged darkness. Whispers of technical difficulties swirled the theater, along with sporadic bouts of uncomfortable laughter at the seemingly endless dark screen and no noise. Suddenly, heavy breathing could be heard and the audience's reactions subsided. This noise was coming from truck driver Paul Conroy (Ryan Reynolds), who was buried alive in a wooden coffin while in Iraq delivering supplies to the citizens of the war-torn country. In fact, the entire film takes place in the buried coffin while our aforementioned lead character tries to adapt to his situation with nothing but a Zippo lighter and a cell phone. This powerful, emotionally stirring film was met with brief bouts of humor as he is being given the run-around from the police, family and government, being met with hold music and voicemails. As Reynolds continues to try and fail to be found and brought to safety, while he speaks to his captures, family and authorities, the more we have a more emotional connection to him, all the way until the heart-pounding ending.

Buried opens in select theaters today and opens everywhere October 8th.

Speidi Reunited!

After proclamations of divorce, a sex tape featuring Heidi Montag and her husband Spencer Pratt, and another sex tape starring Heidi and Playboy Playmate and former GF of founder and all-around dirty old man Hugh Hefner Karissa Shannon, America's sweethearts (ha) Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag were spotted back together, kissing and with Heidi flaunting her wedding ring while on a yacht celebrating her 24th birthday. The Hills stars were spotted making up, and making out, in Santa Barbara, California yesterday. Heidi took to her Twitter account to praise Spencer, and Jesus, saying "First few days back in America! I don't think I will ever lave again, at least I am never letting @SpencerPratt pack again!!!!"
