Smith's first straightforward horror movie, loosely based on Fred Phelps and the Westboro Baptist church.

John Goodman and Michael Parks star in it. Premieres at Sundance.

Apparently it's pretty bleak and disturbing.

Teaser trailer here: http://coopersdell.com/

This will not be more disturbing than that clown movie he was involved with.

You mean Vulgar

Yeah, that was pretty harrowing. It was also really bad.


Honestly, though, Red State looks promising.

wow, I'm almost positive that guy in the bottom poster playing Caleb is Ralph Garman, he's been one of the secondary members on the Kevin & Bean morning show in LA for years and he's been used more and more on Family Guy lately. Didn't know he was getting into actual acting.
I feel like I've kinda waned on Smith over the last couple of years, I mean I actually rather enjoyed Zack & Miri, but I've still not watched Cop Out nor do I ever intend to do so, I still can't believe he actually did that. And all that stuff with the "too fat to fly" last year, just shut the fuck up already, it's like he never stopped.
Oh and to have the gall to say the Lord Of The Rings sucked and the whole thing was so boring, and yet he said he really liked the prequels episode I & II :roll:

I don't know what any of these things have to do with his movies.

And yes, that is Ralph Garman. Him and Kevin do the weekly "Hollywood Babble-On" podcast at http://smodcast.com/babbleon/

Well that's kinda unfortunate I guess given that I directly reference a couple of his movies, but hey at the very least I was trying to think of you, I haven't really given you otherwise a decent chance to rag on me in awhile, so you can feel your little moment of internet superiority, so...

Wow, persecution complex much? All you said in relation to his movies was that you liked Zack&Miri and you haven't seen Cop Out, before you started talking about Kevin Smith's opinions on Lord of the Rings and the Southwest incident as if those things have anything to do with his filmmaking.

Yes, an unflattering depiction in a movie will surely make them realize the err of their ways.

bart's right. Those fuckers don't even watch movies. Ya know, cuz of Satan.

Still, I'll enjoy watching it. Especially if the Phelps characters gets a proper comeuppance.
