No, they are assigned to junior high and high school kids so they too can learn to hate literature. Thanks a fucking lot junior high teacher for making us read The Pearl.

Simple, the difference is Liquid Swords.

So you like kids' books, but you won't let your hypothetical kids read them? Purposeful asshattery aside, this is a kids-to-YA series. To mistake it for anything else is to misunderstand kids, YAs and adults.

Maybe he's an Iranian gentleman* who says a lot of, "My friend" my friend.

As a metalhead I'm curious and scared at the same time. Guess I should watch it one of these days.

Fuck that, I keep thinking of a mashup between this and Shortbus, remember the guy singing national anthem in that other guy's asshole?  I sadly know what that says about me.

I know, but if you put a gun to my head and make me pick one, it's gotta be Cookie.

My world gets a little bit expanded in these forums. I didn't know two girls one cup nor did I know about the existence of Elmo haters.

Yeah you're right, I misnamed my avatar. It's that awesome poster and Fulci's rep that made me watch it.

I would like to respectfully submit my hate for City of the Living Dead, sez the guy with Zombi avatar. There isn't anything resembling a plot. It's slow and boring with random gory shit thrown in. Not enough gore to satiate a gorehound, not enough well-constructed horror for a general horror fan. What's the appeal?

I liked how they got the boring details of day-to-day life so perfect. It made their falling apart a lot more personal. And the ending man, what a kick in the face.

Hate Blair WItch, love Paranormal Activity and unlikable characters was never an issue for me. BWP looked like some kids fucking around, PA with its slow burn + shock ending worked really well for me. I plan to make a double bill of this one and Troll Hunter.

Assuming you're counting me among regular people, I was a victim of internet hype, that "Once seen, cannot unsee" bs. I'm down for some recreational terror, but this was just cheap cynical shocksploitation. The rape, torture and murder of Serbians as an allegory to the rape, torture and murder of Serbians — that's…

Attempting? I thought it clearly said what it wanted to say, at the rate of three metaphors per frame. It's a stone classic in the little film club in my head. As great as Cronnenberg is, would he have a line like, "I haven't jerked off since Easter?"

Not to get all jaded robot, but don't believe the hype. It is 10 kinds of fucked-up, but it's just a filmmaker double-dog daring you. Think of it as an extended Wu skit, "I will, I will staple your cheeks. I will, I will make you **** your own kid while your brother bangs yo wife." 
I have a good mind to beat up the…

I saw it a couple years ago, didn't care for it. My hate or rather meh is fresher than yours. Do not revisit.

They were unfavorable, but kind. People have been trashed for less.

Fight Club is the book stupid people read to write "reviews" on Amazon as Tyler Durden.

My breaking point was Lullaby.
