Hollywood, Stuck for Ideas
Monday, May 12th, 2008 at 10:10 am by JamiI should just declare reader Mikey D my bad movie expert. He’s at it again with this gem of a horror flick. This is the trailer for Stuck which comes out with limited release on May 30.
Wow.
The fucked up part? This actually happened in real life!
Hey Jami,
Remember a few years back when that lady who worked as a nurse got all drunk and pilled up at a party, hit that homeless guy, and that guy got wedged in her windshield and she just left him in here garage to bleed to death, and then her and her boyfriend burned the body and the car seat he bled out on, and got caught after bragging about it at ANOTHER party where she got even more drunk and pilled up, and all of America was appalled by the whole ordeal? (Wow… run on sentence much?)Well now all of America can relive this whole horrific series of events on the BIG SCREEN complements of Holly Wood! Aren’t you just excited? Don’t you love it when Holly Wood makes profit off of loosely basing a movie off real world stuff?
I know I do… horray!-Mikey D
Had I not known the background, I would have assumed this is some crazy idiot’s idea that got greenlit after a night of drinking and drugging with a studio exec. You know what, now that I know that it’s actually based on a real life story, I KNOW that this is some crazy idiot’s idea that got greenlit after a night of drinking and drugging with a studio exec. I’m not sure what’s more fucked up, the fact that some crazy shit like this actually happened or the fact that there’s a movie that has the potential to kick off a whole franchise.
There are a number of truly horrifying movies based on real life events that make you question just what the fuck is wrong with humanity. Certainly, there’s an aspect of exploitive profiteering that leaves a bad taste in my mouth whenever one of these gets made. But the thing that truly bothers me is that there are sick fucks in this world who would just let a man bleed to death in their wind shield.
