I feel like it might be a joke or something though. And not like a joke movie, like a joke trailer.
I think it's a fake trailer maybe...for a movie that doesn't exist? is that it? do i win a prize?
"Slamdance film festival"??? :|
That said, I would still totally watch that movie and probably love it.
-
Slamdance Film Festival exists.
And I'd probably end up pirating this movie since it'd probably only show up in theaters for like half a day where I live and then it's gone.
-
some of those monsters flashes are from cheesy scifi movies... I think its a fan trailer...
-
Yeah, that looked like some shameful shite. Like, at least in Reanimator they were trying. This looks like an extremely lazy, unfunny comedy.
-
I think it's sort of supposed to be a comedy. I think it looks decent.
Then again, I have absurd standards....absurdly low, usually.
-
I'm really unclear how a comedy film that's playing around with Lovecraft's work will piss on his grave or anything. It seems a bit like saying Dracula: Dead And Loving It was insulting to Bram Stoker. Admittedly in that case the parody was better than the book which is a bit of a downer if you're the author, but that's unlikely here. Lovecraft is not above being used for some jokes, nothing is.

Everybody who lost their shit over The Cthulu Christmas albums but think this is some horrible crime against humanity put yr hands up

Oh OK so basically you were just saying that fanwank is only slightly more tolerable than genocide. I can get behind that.
We kind of need to come up with a new term to differentiate nice, normal, sane geeks from the creepy, obsessed, fanfic-writing swamp spawn.
(actually is that what the difference between geeks and nerds is?)
-
Geeks are deeply uncool about one specific subject, nerds are fairly uncool about a whole range of subjects.
Or to put it another way, they're the hedgehogs and foxes of the social outcasts.
(Except then you've got the whole "uncool is cool" thing and "geek chic" thing but let's not get into that now because it's besides the point.)
-
They could have been making clever jokes and instead the movie is about a man that is being called fat and retarded by his grandmother.
Point. This fish man looked pretty fun though, I may be being biased by the obvious large amounts of cheap-looking latex monsters which I'm a real sucker for, so I'm overlooking that bit.
-
also if fat people didn't wanna get made fun of they'd lose some weight
