Hope there isn't another thread about this, but just in my humble opion, save your money. I mean the best part of the whole movie was when Paris Hilton got a pole thrown through her skull.

But hey who knows, some might like it.

I wasn't interested in it I guess because I am a big fan of the original with Vincent Price.

Well, now I'm tempted to go and see it, just for that!

If you can get a cheap ticket then yes do it. If it is over $6 then don't...you'll just end up wasting the extra two or three dollars. :P

That's the one and only draw of that movie. I'm betting 50% of their box office take is from people wanting to see what you described above.

I would love to see Paris Hilton die on camera...

Would you pay for it though? Keep in mind, its the ticket sales which determines what kind of movies the studios release. The movie goers have a great power in that they can dictate what is profitable or not. If people were more critical to what kind of movies they are going to see, there would perhaps not be so many cheap and mindless goreflicks out there. Personally, I want to see horror flicks with plot, characters and real suspense.

I saw Vampires, so I can't believe this is actually true. That was the worst movie ever.

I'm in agreement. SUch a huge disappointment.

Recently, he's released... Ghosts of Mars. Insanity is my only explanation.

I think you're right, there really does seem to be no other explanation. :\
