I was just arguing to the boyfriend a few days ago that this would never happen... guess I owe him, like, a cookie or something. From the lips of director Eli Roth himself, via CHUD:
"The poster just got approved by the MPAA. This is now officially the U.S. teaser poster, hitting theaters soon. How fucking insane is that?!? I feel like the luckiest director on the planet to have Lionsgate handling my film.
If you didn't vomit during THE HOLIDAY, you'll definitely puke on your way home when you see this up on the wall at your local multiplex.
I couldn't be happier."
Okay, maybe you have no idea what the hell he's (or I'm) talking about. Were you not scarred by the Hostel Part II poster I posted last week? The one that resembled a large slab of roast beef? Yeah, the MPAA just approved that poster for US audiences. Which I never thought would happen. I thought there were like rules against blood being on US posters? Wasn't there some hullaballoo about the Saw III poster that had blood on it?
Well whatever, I think this poster is actually really beautiful, in a Damien Hirst sort of way.

I cannot believe they gave that poster the go ahead. It is so gross...like a disected brain freshly cut... yay.
