THE EXORCIST BEGINNING
Please, please, please...for the love of god and all that's holy...DO NOT waste your time and money by going to see the new Exorcist movie...it is literally one of the most dreadful films ever made...I guess we should have known, but we weren't smart...and in the end, The Exorcist Beginning won out over Alien vs. Predator (AVP) (which, most likely, would have been the better choice)...I will give it this...the film did hold our attention for about the first five minutes...that is, until the introduction of the once-priest-turned-Indiana Jones-wanna-be archeologist (who would later turn out to be the hero of this train wreck)...but it really didn't explain much of anything (as any good prequel should)...and there was just too much that didn't make any sense as well as many religious and historical mistakes splattered throughout this tragedy...half way through, I could barely contain my laughter any longer...I lost it when, upon seeing the woman's bedroom which had been trashed and smashed up, TY leaned over to me and said, "I guess she's not going to get her security deposit back..."
You can tell the quality of the movie based on the best line from it: "You want to fuck me in my juicy ass!!" (this was snarled by the woman, who at that point in the movie, had become possessed, by none other than Lucifer himself...
Again, please don't see this movie...save your money for AVP...however, I must say the consensus among the women in the ladie's room after the movie was that it was "much scarier than the first one" and in fact one went on to say in all seriousness, "I'm going to have trouble sleeping tonight after that..." I may too...not out of fear from the movie, but pure horror at the state of Hollywood these days...after this movie as well as the previews that came before it, I think they've really hit the bottom of the barrel and finally run out of ideas...

At this point the turn around to DVD is so short that we often don't bother to go see a movie in the thearter. Very few movies make the grade for spending the money to see a movie on the big screne.
