MooreMark 0 Report post Posted September 5, 2004 I'm looking forward to "The Grudge". I saw a trailer for it at "Anacondas" (prepares for various vegatables to be thrown). Looks very Ring-ish but less stupid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2GOLD 0 Report post Posted September 6, 2004 RE2, SAW, and SHAUN on the big screen. I'm still unsure of "THE GRUDGE" but I might go see it. No thank you to "The Ring 2". But SAW is a big hell yes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Mandarin 0 Report post Posted September 6, 2004 I saw SAW's trailer a few months ago and I thought it looked hysterically bad. Then again, I'm not a big horror aficionado to begin with. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gary Floyd 0 Report post Posted September 6, 2004 Judging by my name, you can probably tell that I am a horror fan, so, i'm pretty much looking forward to: SAW (Trailer made me thinl "Holy Shit, they made a Giallo flick in America!) Haute Tension Shaun of the Dead Worst Case Scenario (German Nazi Zombies) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
algrim 0 Report post Posted September 6, 2004 I'd like to go see the grudge, mainly because I'm a huge Sarah Michelle Gellar fan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dubq 0 Report post Posted September 7, 2004 SAW is going to be awesome. I've got tickets to see it on the 18th at the Toronto International Film Festival. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dubq 0 Report post Posted September 19, 2004 Just a follow-up. Finished watching SAW at the Toronto Filmfest not even 20 minutes ago. FUCKING AMAZING. I think we've finally got a serial killer movie that tops 'Se7en' on all levels. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ravenbomb 0 Report post Posted September 19, 2004 was it the NC-17 or R version? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest El Satanico Report post Posted September 19, 2004 I'd assume it was the "NC-17" cut since he saw it at a film festival. The R cut is just for US theatrical release. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dubq 0 Report post Posted September 20, 2004 Not sure which cut it was, but no one under 18 was allowed in the theatre if that's worth anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrRant 0 Report post Posted September 20, 2004 That would be NC-17 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dubq 0 Report post Posted September 20, 2004 What's the NC stand for? We have a different ratings system up here [G, PG, AA, R] for our theatres.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Black Lushus 0 Report post Posted September 20, 2004 not sure what the letters themselves mean, but NC-17 means no one under 17 can see it period, even if they come with parents... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest El Satanico Report post Posted September 20, 2004 I believe it's 17 and Under, so it's really no one under 18. NC-17:"No One 17 And Under Admitted." This rating declares that the Rating Board believes that this is a film that most parents will consider patently too adult for their youngsters under 17. No children will be admitted. NC-17 does not necessarily mean "obscene or pornographic" in the oft-accepted or legal meaning of those words. The Board does not and cannot mark films with those words. These are legal terms and for courts to decide. The reasons for the application of an NC-17 rating can be violence or sex or aberrational behavior or drug abuse or any other elements which, when present, most parents would consider too strong and therefore off-limits for viewing by their children. http://www.notcoming.com/features/xtonc17.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jingus 0 Report post Posted September 20, 2004 Kind of a weak-looking crop this year. Not as bad as some previous ones (Cabin Fever, Wrong Turn, and House of the Dead were all out around the same time, weren't they?), but still... Resident Evil 2: I was one of those rare people who hated the first one, so I kinda doubt I'll like the sequel any more, especially since it looks like more of the same except without Michelle Rodriguez. (On a positive note, at least Paul "Most Overrated Director On Earth" Anderson wasn't at the helm this time.) Saw: I've never heard this movie described the same way twice. This flick apparently contains enough plot to make up three or four lesser horror movies. On the plus side, most movies with Danny Glover or Cary Elwes aren't that bad. The Grudge: has anyone ever seen a good Sarah Michelle Gellar movie? Ever? That poor girl must have the worst agent in history. (Wonder if he works for Rose McGowan, too.) When you gotta chose between Scream 2 or Funny Farm to pick your best role, that's not so good. Seems like it's trying to cash in on the success of The Ring and the popularity of Buffy, at least from how the previews looked. And speaking of which: The Ring 2: well, at least Naomi Watts and the same little boy signed on again, plus a few what-the-fuck additions like Elizabeth Perkins and Sissy Spacek. However: awesomely talented director of the first Ring, Gore Verbinski, is out; fairly mediocre director of the original Ringu, Hideo Nakata, is in; Ehren Kruger, the aside-from-The-Ring hideously untalented screenwriter is still around. So call this one a toss-up, I have no idea if it'll be any good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
