Two doctors were found dead on Friday night in a luxury penthouse, People confirms. Their hands had been tied and their throats cut.
The victims — Dr. Richard Field, 49, and Dr. Lina Bolanos, 38 — were engaged. Dr. Field, who worked in a pain management practice, managed to text a last plea for help to his friend from his apartment in South Boston, according to two officials who spoke to the Boston Globe on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to talk to the media. However, by the time police arrived, both doctors were dead, according to the newspaper.

Following the unveiling of the fantastic 2011 feature line-up last week, the South by Southwest Film Festival has announced the films selected to play at midnight throughout the nine-day event, as well as the complete list of short films.
Insidious, a haunted house flick from Saw director James Wan, is among the midnight program, along with Xavier Gen’s sci-fi thriller The Divide, Sundance favorite Hobo With a Shotgun, Argentinean entry Phase 7, and Joe Cornish’s Attack the Block. In previous years, the midnight and SXFantastic programs has helped launch the careers of Gareth Edwards (Monsters) and Eli Roth (Hostel).
Spike Jonze returns to the festival with another short film titled Scenes from the Suburbs, his second collaboration with (and about) the band Arcade Fire after his moving feature Where the Wild Things Are.
For those of you attending the festival, the schedule will be released on February 15 along with details about film-related panels.
