This movie is literally from the people behind "Underground Comedy Movie", and I'm willing to guess its been shelved for a few years but is now getting a release thanks to the similar "Movie 43".

EDIT: I just noticed something odd. Ari Shaffir is top-billed in the credit block at the bottom (in addition to being a co-writer), but is not featured at the cast list on the top of the poster. Also, Freestyle Releasing is the same distributor that put "The Nutcracker in 3D", "I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell", "In the Name of the King", "Postal", "Seed", "Dragon Wars", and "Delgo" into theaters. Hoo boy...

This is the DVD version, but the VHS poster for The Blob remake always just gave me the creeps as a kid. Dunno if this is the same poster for the movie when it came out in theaters through.

That looks incredible. Can I ask about the mat? Did you have it professionally framed or did you paint it yourself? I'd love to try doing that myself for a frame job but am not sure about the logistics.

It was done professionally. You might be able to achieve the effect more easily yourself by using two mattes placed on top of each other.

I expect that I'll like this movie. But while out for a run one morning I saw this poster on the side of a bus shelter and as I was approaching, it looked as if mini-Emma Stone was perched like a parrot on Gosling's arm.

Does anyone dare to contest the perfection of the Jurrasic Park poster? Is there another that you believe tops it in terms of message and design?

I've tried and nothing comes close (apart from Clifford, obviously).

From looking online, the VHS cover is pretty much the same thing. Here's the theatrical poster for the '88 version, which really resembles "The Human Centipede" poster.


For reference:


Here's a hillarious VHS cover for the '58 original:

That's just the '58 poster with a badly composited Steve McQueen on it.

It might be a sequel but that sounds like the end of Warriors of the Wasteland which is available from Rifftrax.

Yeah, I might have had the wrong movie, but it looks very similar. The one I'm talking about had the hero rig his car door to eject like a battering ram as part of his very ill-fated plan.

That's it. It's rather an unusual Post-Apocalyptic film because of the anal rape of the hero (whose kinda a coward), and that the real hero is Nadir, the specatularly-adorned lone wanderer of the wasteland archer played by Fred Williamson.

Men's rights is the most ridiculous thing I've ever come across. Otherkin is more legit than men's rights. They can't understand or handle that feminism is a thing BECAUSE of inherent male privilege.

The funniest thing about the people bitching about this movie is that it felt, at least to me, like it was made from a MRA perspective. Women taking advantage of and killing men with their sexy ways? Yeah, that's totally some feminist propaganda.

He looks like he's had a laugh with it, but it's the kind of laugh you'd never want anyone but your closest, drunkest friends to see. Brody's always so drat charming, even when delivering material that could have been lifted from that "kid jokes" tumblr.

I doubt it's so complex. It's more like they wonder why all the attention is put on things like fair wages and positive gender roles in the media when there's still the unresolved issue of that loving slut Tina not puttin' out even after I paid for my half of dinner and drove her home.

No poo poo. He even included himself in the travel agency office scene, supposedly talking to Hitchcock off-screen, in a reverse of Hitch's cameo in the original film.
