I don't know. When the can't even show a commecial of it without showing some guys fingers getting chopped off with a chainsaw I kindo f draw the line.

Let me know how it is though Holly. If it's good, I MIGHT check it out on DVD (or Blu-ray, whatever they're new technology is.

Not interested to see this at all. Why does Q.T. always put his name on films he has jack crap to do with. No other director does that.

Well what can I say, I'm a horror movie whore. LOL.
I love going to see scary films at the theatre, gives me a little thrill.
MG, don't worry, I'll let ya know if it sucks or not.

LOL yeah I heard the exact same thing.

Well I still haven't seen it.

Went opening night, left a bit late and by the time we got to the movies it was sold out!

It was only like a 5 mintues til showing too.
Then Saturday night we were gonna go but family dropped in for a visit so we just stayed home. Hopefully I'll get to see it this weekend sometime. A little bit of boobs and torture don't bother me none.

I think he puts his name on movies that might not otherwise get distributed because he likes them and wants others to enjoy them too! I mean, he may also be getting a kickback from the proceeds... but I don't mind. I'd like to think he does it for the love of the movies - I mean have you seen the man? I get the feeling that he loves watching movies more than he does making them.

I'm still skeptical and I think it's B.S. to be honest with you. Average movie-goers aren't that smart. They think he directed or at least wrote the flick, but he didn't. He has nothing to do with the creative process. It's lame. That's just my two cents!

I keep seeing this thread and thinking, "I wonder who's Hostile?"

Oy. I need more sleep.

When it says "QT PRESENTS" people shouldn't go thinking he had creative input. And if they do they aren't very smart! THats my 2!

See, E, this is why you're smart. You can't even fathom the idea of thinking something so completely erroneous. Ours is a small inner circle. Please enjoy yourself here.

I looked and it looks like all QT did was encourge Eli Roth to write it and if he did he'd put his name on it.
