I Guess I’m a Wimp After All

I’m a no-holds barred kind of girl. I’m willing to post anything and everything if it amuses me. But today, I was clicking around on some links and found the poster to Hostel II, the sequel to my favorite torture-porn of 2005, Hostel, and I gotta say, I can’t, I can’t post the poster because my stomach is still churning from when I first viewed it. [Nay, my fragile little mind is still screaming, freaking out, wondering what the fuck it just saw, and refusing to believe it.] When I first heard about this film, I thought, “goddammit, why do they need a fucking sequel?” But check out the plot of the film:

While studying art in Rome for the summer, three young American women are lured away to a Slovakian hostel by a model from their class. Soon they will experience the grim reality their weekend getaway has in store.

American chicks in white tank-tops and no bras running away from bad bad men who want to chop them up to little pieces. Of course! That’s what Torture Porn is all about, after all! But this poster… Oh Science… Click if you dare. I’m telling you, children, it’s pretty goddamn gross… I mean… WHAT IS THAT SHIT? I have my suspicions on what I believe it is, but… no, I refuse to contemplate it further. I’m already going to be having nightmares for weeks because I looked at the damned thing once. I think I’m going to be a vegetarian from now on. Damn you, Eli Roth! You are a very, very sick man. Marry me!

    Huh.

    I really don’t know what…part (parts?) that could be. Or from how many people.

    (And I have a pretty fucked up imagination.)

    It looks like… little bit… butterfly. Seriously, meat usually looks ugly before it’s cooked. :)

    You know once it’s all just a lot of flesh and gristle it’s just meat. Gross but not scary. But gross, which isn’t as interesting as scary.

    Now that book with god and demons. THAT sounds like the best ever.

    Ew.

    Me, I’m not a fan of Hostel-type movies (Saw, Wolf Creek, whatever). Which is odd, because I love stuff like PREACHER — but you put it into live-action and I’m just … bleh. And I love me some violence in movies, and horror, so I don’t know what it is.

    Knowing Eli Roth’s type of films… and because I have seen Hostel more than once and can guess how fucked up homeboy can get… I’m going to reveal the first thing that popped into my head as soon as I saw the poster…

    It’s either the inside of a chick’s messed up vagina… or her anus.

    Which was why I got nauseous.

    Mick, did you hear about those rumors that the producers of Soprano are interested in turning Preacher into a series? It was in development hell for a while with James Marsden in the lead (Cyclops? WTF?), but the project is dead in the water now… but with HBO supposedly interested in it… Dude, how awesome would it be if Captain Tightpants played Jesse Custer?

    Hmmm. Perhaps the intention is something much grosser, but that pic is just some beef or lamb. The closeup is kind of brisket-y, or perhaps just shank meat. A cheaper cut for sure; look at the amount of silverskin, tendon, and uneven marbling.

    Stew meat.

    Oh, like I would know. When meat comes to me, it’s been cooked… and pleasantly garnished! :D

    I clicked and it just made me hungry for steak :D .

    I’m so glad you posted, btw. I’m going home today and won’t have an internet connection for awhile. I was startin’ to get a little sad that I wouldn’t have any new Bam before I left.

    That sounded a little creepy…

    Happy Holidays!

    Bam, this is definitely where you and I diverge. I cannot stand slasher/horror films. Ugh. Give me a great psychological thriller any day. But blood? Gore? I’m not interested. However, I’ve seen the poster. I agree with Laura, it looks like a cheap cut of meat…and makes me think of brisket. Mmmm…Mommy’s brisket. YUMMY!

    I think I just had a geeky fangirl orgasm.

    I would watch a live-action Preacher series, though.

    Okay, you fuckers are sick. Or maybe I should stop imagining it’s the inside of a girl’s anus.

    Duh. It’d be awesome. speaking of live-action, I can’t wait for The Dresden Files on the Sci-fi channel coming up in January. Fucking awesome!
