Previously featured on YouTube before ultimately being ousted by the powers that be (those powers being the people behind "Nail Gun Massacre") thecinemasnob.com will
feature all of the Snob's videos, old and new, and also brand new shows and full length original movies for those of us who already can't get enough of Z-Grade Cinema.
Pardon my frail voice. I promote some DVD's from the conventions vendors, as well as a couple Blu Rays. Plus, an update on "The Cinema Snob" movie, and some random thoughts on "Breaking Dawn."

Well gee Brad, now I'm half tempted to actually go see Breaking Dawn if it's comparable to The Happening; it sounds like it could be the best comedy this year!
In all seriousness though, I think we all know why they split it into two movies: to compete with Harry Potter and get more money. Having read Breaking Dawn myself (...I wholly regret that), I can safely say that there isn't enough material for two whole two-and-a-half hour movies (maybe just one, but that would be pushing it). If you thought nothing happened in this movie, the second movie's going to be even worse... believe me (but you probably already know that).
Aw, damn! The birthing scene sucks? Well, half of me isn't surprised one bit since they probably had to water it down HEAVILY to keep the PG-13 rating (same with the sex scene where Wardo bites the pillow and covers Bella in bruises), but the other half wishes that they could've channeled David Cronenberg and just go all-out with it. Ah well.
Horrible Twilight movie and fever aside, it sounds like you had a fun time at Horror Hound; I've honestly only been to a few anime conventions, but from what I've seen, horror conventions look pretty fun. I'll definitely be sure to check out the other convention videos, and I hope your voice gets better. c: Reply to this

Actually, that problem of editing is the same in the book; you could cut that thing down to 150 pages if you carved out all the Mary-Sue and angsting shit.
DAMN about the birthing scene, though. D: Seriously, if they'd been accurate to the book this thing would be the next fuckin' Blood-Sucking Freaks for that scene alone. Reply to this

Hey Brad I e-mailed you once about the movie Intruder and your right it is a good slasher film. However, i think both the version i saw and the blu-ray are edited. Do you know if there even is a unedited version out there to buy? I think they basically cut away from a lot of the death scenes, or at least some of the more graphic ones.
I emailed you about it i think 3 months ago, saying how today we still have people hunting down certain movies or certain versions of them. Still haven't found a unedited version of Intruder yet. Reply to this

Congrats on getting the Dark Night of the Scarecrow and Intruder blu-rays. I've already written my own review of the latter. The quality is suitably grangy and grungy for a slasher film, but top-notch in a way that I haven't seen in any prior versions. Even the uncut gore scenes look astounding, which is a problem with most movies to be censored for release. And the extras are really fun, too, especially Danny Hicks' story about biting one of his co-stars on the ass. Reply to this
