Xander ,'Dirty Girls'
A place to talk about movies--Old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
That's in addition to my thing for zombies.
you are the anti-me. zombies, zombie movies, anything having to do with the word zombie freaks me the hell out. i watched Resident Evil, but it was late at night and i couldn't finish watching it until the next morning. i don't know why they freak me out so much, but they do.
"Those aren't inside-out dogs, those are just regular dogs covered in crap!"
Considering that the trailer made them look like Dobermans covered in hamburger, I'm left to ponder how they kept the dogs from eating their costumes.
Ghosts are my personal bugbear. I'm a chicken who can't watch many horror movies anyway, but anything involving visions of dead people (whether it's The Sixth Senth or a piece of crap like Event Horizon ) is guaranteed to freak my shit out.

The commentary track (which features Milla Jovavich and Michelle Rodriguez sort of flirting with each other, and geeking out about video games) reveals:
The inside-out dogs were, in fact, covered in essentially spaghetti sauce, and keeping them from eating their makeup jobs was a real problem on set.
Bwah! As a dog owner, I could have told them that for free.

Mmmmm, that's a spicy meatball!

Oh, they freak me out, but in a good way. I was thinking the other day about why we watch horror movies (after wondering why I wanted to see Open Water so much), and I decided it's because the best ones tap into that visceral fear, and I want to experience strong emotion like that, because it reminds me that I'm human.

I love Event Horizon. It's one of the few movies that's truly scared me. It may have helped that both times I saw it were in the dark.

Hee. I don't feel so bad then. At the time I felt like an idiot for being terrified by something I could tell (even watching through my fingers) was a big steaming pile of melted Velveeta.

It probably doesn't make any sense, but it's damn creepy.

no good freaking here. though every time i see the trailer for Apocalypse i can't seem to make myself turn away or change the channel. i liked the plot of Resident Evil, but my insane fear of zombies just makes it impossible for me to watch it alone or at night.
why I wanted to see Open Water so much
that's another one i'm going to have to wait to see. why? because that is totally something that can happen to anyone. *shudder*
Any advance word on the Jet Li movie opening tomorrow? ita?
