I dunno if any of you have seen the "series" that MTV has recently aired regarding the making of the House of Wax movie. It basically follows the four main actors around the set during production, etc...A real fluff piece.

Anyway, I caught about two minutes of this the other night and I could not believe what a low-rent diva that Chad Michael Murray comes off as...You should have heard him barking at PA's, cussing out the director...I mean acting like a COMPLETE little Bee-yotch! To my knowledge, I have only seen him in one other movie (small role in the Freaky Friday remake).

I have no earthly idea where some of these idiot actors get such a feeling of entitlement...

Me neither before the other night. I just got his name from the movie website...hopefully, one of the RZ members living in CA can find him and deliver a "beat down."

Oops. I seem to have facilitated this by accidentally posting his picture:

Ever see Martin?

I have never seen Martin which is a crime considering how much I like Romero's other work. The budget is pretty small for "Land" if I remember right, somewhere around 20 millionish? Still compared to what he had to work with in the prvious zombie films I think he should be able to pull off some great stuff with that kind of budget. Add to that the fact that they filmed in Canada so we got the conversion rate on the Canadian dollar and I think they were able to comfortably make the film he wanted to make. Hopefully the MPAA won't make him slash it to death for the big screen.

Yeah Rosie, I'm really excited that they moved up the release date, I was going crazy thinking I would have to wait until October.

Next RedsZone outing: Me Rosie and Zombie on June 24th to catch the matinee showing of Land of the Dead, who else is in? lol

Yeah, but the beauty of that movie is that even though the main character dies, there is still a sequel opportunity!

Well, I went to see this the other night.

I was expecting something along the teen-horror forumla of the late 90s - one of those "knowingly self-aware" films that can only be called horror because of the gore. It wasn't that, but it wasn't particularly scary, either. The storyline was weak, and there wasn't very much gore, either. However, the set-piece finale at the end of the film was pretty wicked.

The ending alone doesn't justify the nine dollar ticket, though. In retrospect, I should have seen Kingdom of Heaven... the film wasn't particularly good or particularly bad, it was just there. I can't really recommend this film to anyone.
