Violent scenes in Liv Tyler's new movie The Strangers are so realistic, test audiences fled cinemas fearing the actress was being injured for real.

Tyler and Scott Speedman play a couple terrorised and held hostage in their own home by a group of masked intruders.

The film is based on a real event, and contains graphic scenes of violence, that left Tyler battered and bruised and filmgoers terrified.

The actress explains, "I was literally covered in bruises for half the year. It was as far as I could push myself in every way: physically, emotionally, mentally.

"I remember the producer calling me and saying that the audiences freaked out because they thought it was a snuff film."

Last week SpookyDan chatted with star Scott Speedman about his role in the film, along with his future with Underworld. I feel like this is so different from Underworld, he tells Bloody-Disgusting. It feels much more personal, and like it could absolutely happen. There was something about this that set it apart in such a major way. During the first 30 pages of the script you really have no idea what kind of film this is."

With everyone from Little League coaches to members of the U.S. Congress weighing in on the issue of performance enhancing drugs in sports, body builder (and former user) Christopher Bell injects his own story into this documentary that explores America's obsession with excellence and what it realistically takes to achieve it. Bell chronicles his own family's history of steroid use as a jumping off point to explore the wider love/hate relationship between professional athletes and performance enhancing drugs in a culture where winning is everything and there are no points for second place.
