By that rationale, shouldn't we all be ordering copies of Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter as well? Oh! Blasphemy! Kidding!

Alright, we now return you to your regularly scheduled program.

Forgive my ignorance, but is that really a movie? I really need to see it...

Looks like Billy the Kid vs Dracula was just toppled as worst vampire movie.

*oldmanwinters* · 02-25-2004, 08:37 PM

One of my professors is taking my entire class out of school to see it.

Kind of ironic... skipping school for an R rated movie.

But, then again, its a Biblical Studies course, and we are all going to have a discussion afterwards.

I hope you mean The Passion of the Christ and not Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter!

And yep, Voltron, it's really a movie. I haven't seen it, but I've seen the trailer (should be accessible on imdb, actually) and a Harry Knuckles short by the same team. It looks to be pretty much more of the same -- which is to say really awful stuff.

I have Jesse James Meets Frankenstein's Daughter...

*Krutch* · 02-26-2004, 12:32 AM

I just saw it tonight. Passion, that is.

Wow, powerful. I'm not a follower of any religion, but man, this movie delivers some serious wake up calls. The violence in the movie is unlike anything I've seen(and yes, I've seen all the Toxic Avengers. Own the Tox Box, actually

).

If you have a strong...strong stomache, then i'd recommend it to anyone, beiliver or not.

The movie is about 120 mins, and I'd say 100 minutes of it is watching the beating of Jesus. It is visually disturbing, and I dont care who you are, its gonna leave you feeling sick and speechless when the credits roll and the rest of the night. Hopefully I'll feel better tomarrow. Cuz what I saw tonight....man...

And of course Dracula loses, because he's a wuss.

*Voltron* · 02-26-2004, 10:44 AM

There is no being in the past, present, or future that can take on Mr. T

Not even ET? How about a cross between ET and Mr. T?

Report: Woman dies watching 'Passion'

CHICAGO, Illinois (Reuters) -- A woman died of an apparent heart attack Wednesday while watching the climactic crucifixion scene in "The Passion of the Christ" at a morning showing in Wichita, Kansas, a television station reported.

The film was stopped and a nurse in attendance went to the woman's side, KAKE-TV in Wichita reported.

"It was the highest emotional part of the movie," a spokeswoman for the station said. A crew from the station was at the special showing, which was sponsored by the ClearChannel Radio chain.

The Wichita Eagle newspaper, on its Web site, identified the woman as Peggy Scott, 56, a sales manager for two local radio stations.

Employees at KAKE-TV said they knew the woman as Peggy Law, adding they did not think she had any pre-existing health problems.

The woman was pronounced dead at a nearby hospital, where a spokesman would only say she had been attending a movie. The county coroner's office said an autopsy would be performed.

Mel Gibson's film, which opened Wednesday, has been both criticized and praised for its violent, bloody portrayal of Christ's final hours.

Guess it's not for the faint of heart.

Nope, not yet...

Did see Jay Leno talk with Mel Gibson last night though. Jay managed to handle the whole thing okay, it seemed.
