The movie Superman is essentially the pre-Crisis Earth-1 Superman, who could fly way WAY faster than light. Though it sounds like maybe they're employing some elements of the post-Crisis Superman, whose powers remain even under a red sun until he slowly depletes them through use?

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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
That might have been the special that turned me on to The Audition. When Rob Zombie said it freaked him out, I went straight to Netflix and didn't watch any of their clips.

Yup. That's the one. When you freak out Rob Zombie, you know you've hit paydirt.

It seemed like half the people they interviewed picked The Audition as one of the scariest. Though perhaps its plot of a crazy person torturing someone in the film industry hit too close to home.

Matt, remind me--what exactly did he do for a living before he started auditioning women. Was it creative? I thought the film stuff was his friend.

EWWW!!! Now I'm envisioning the atrocities in AUDITION being done with paper cuts instead of how they were done in the movie. *shudder*

But quieter. The sound really killed me on The Audition, because I tried to look away, but it all just seemed worse.
