It sucks that, according to those who've seen it, the movie is ass shavings. Because this trailer makes it look like a total blast of ridiculously over-the-top B-movie zombie-mashing fun.

Oh, indubitably.

But cheese can be tasty... or it can simply be foul-smelling and sour-tasting.

I know. I just didn't feel like typing any more than just "cheese." wink

Believe me, I'm a connosieur of fine cheeses.

If memory serves me right, The Inspector really LOVED this movie.

Yeah, and he thought Freddy vs. Jason was the bees knees.

It's an oldie that I picked up watching The Munsters in my youth. Don't worry, Slasher, people don't use that phrase anymore. Just me.

I have footage of House Of The Dead on my House Of the Dead 3 video game and my GOD does it look bad, I feel like I'd rather stay at home and play the game then watch the movie.

Don't worry Ryan, a friend of mine uses "bee's knees" and other old phrases like that, so it's not just you, doc.

As for House Of The Dead...no comment. It doesn't deserve any more words spoken about it.

That trailer was so over-the-top, I thought any minute that Manowar would pop out with blazing guitars for no other reason then to ROCK OUT.

Why did that chick jump in the air and blast the shotgun?

Why did they have all the guns and stuff when they were at a party?

WHY DID THE TRAILER JUMP AROUND SO MUCH?!?

Yeah, most movies from video games suck. And I don't think "Alone in the Dark" will be any better.

Trust me, they should've stopped after the first "Mortal Kombat".

I think it's funny how they try to make this look like a big-budget action flick but miserably fail.

At least they didn't show any of the graphics from the game that were spliced into the film in the trailer.

Even the four (4) stoned nu-metal fans who will see this during it's theatrical run will feel ripped-off.

Artisan really has gone to hell in a handbasket. At the end of the 90ies I thought they might be THE new studio for cool horror films. As it turned out they are now less than a wart on Lion's Gate's glorious ass.

I saw this trailer the other night at Freddy Vs. Jason and I have to say that for all of 30 seconds it had my interest. When they were showing quick snippets of the zombies running through the woods, I was thinking "hey...this has some potential". Then they started launching into some "Matrix with Zombies" bullshit and that's where they lost me. What the hell were they thinking?

The movie has mostly zombies, plus a final character that is in keeping with the classic HOD boss style.

It's horribly acted and utterly comatose in the grey matter department, but it is also extremely noisy and energetic and fun and not to be taken seriously, JUST LIKE THE GAMES, and I like it a lot more than the other recent zombie jobs (Versus, wild Zero, Junk, etc)

The trailer is crap. The video games the film is based on are crap. I honestly believe the film will be crap.

Thanks for the info man. I'm sure the film will entertain me on some level. But I don't know if it will beat VERSUS.

My thoughts exactly. It has to be something pretty damn impressive to compete with Versus in my book. I really didn't get that impression from the trailer.

This looks like the B-movie to beat this fall. While I'm hoping that TCM, Gothika and Underworld will actually be, you know, good this doesn't look like it has a chance in Hell of that so I'm just hoping this will be the right kind of bad. And the dopey Matrix rip off shots that wallpaper this trailer definitely lead me to think I'm going to be in luck here.
