Even though the holidays are upon us, that doesn’t mean the horror and sci-fi genres are slowing down, especially on the VOD side of things. For December, we have 21 different titles arriving on digital platforms, including two films I absolutely adored this year: The Eyes of My Mother (hits VOD on December 2nd) and Beyond the Gates (arrives on December 9th). Several other indie films will be coming home to VOD over the next few weeks, too, including Pet, Abattoir, The Possession Experiment, and Blood Brothers, and for those of you who may have missed it in theaters, Train to Busan hits VOD on December 13th, and it is not to be missed.
Other VOD releases for December include Solace, Morgan, Good Tidings, It Watches, The Disappointments Room, and the V/H/S-based SiREN.

The education reform superstar presided over substantial test score irregularities during her term as D.C. schools chancellor, an investigation has found-but Dana Goldstein says the findings are no surprise. Plus, Diane Ravitch blasts Michelle Rhee.
Bad education policy is no excuse for cheating-especially cheating from principals and teachers, whom we hope will serve as role models for our kids. But the sad truth is that we shouldn't be surprised by USA Today's disheartening findings on test score irregularities in the Washington, D.C., public schools during the reign of Michelle Rhee, the firebrand former chancellor best known for firing teachers, closing underperforming schools, and linking teacher and principal pay to student test scores. Such irregularities are, in part, the unintended consequence of a spate of popular education reform policies that over-rationalize teaching and learning-both of which are creative processes-by measuring them almost exclusively through the results of multiple-choice standardized tests.
