I'm sure it's not very exciting for you and some people probably judge me for being excited about this sort of thing but I don't care, I will never stop being in awe of a quote from one of my reviews popping up on a poster or in a movie trailer, and so when I saw my quote on this new "lobby card" for the upcoming slasher movie In a Violent Nature (via) bearing my very own curse-word I plotzed. Okay? I plotzed. Especially since this is a movie right in my wheelhouse -- it's a slasher movie! I was raised and formed on slasher movies! This grindhouse filth is what makes my blood pump and there I be:
This is just a thrill for me and I feel okay about it being a thrill because I really don't go out of my way to write things that can be quoted out of my reviews -- the gobbledegook I write is usually too weirdly phrased, and so I am always kind of in awe when a PR person can dig a crumb out like this. But this one is right up there with my quote on the Skinamarink poster -- I am proud of this one and I need to find a copy of this and have this hanging on my wall somehow. Anyway as for the movie I was talking about -- here is my review out of Sundance where the quote comes from. And I shared the trailer when it dropped several weeks back. It's hitting theaters on May 31st. There's been some buzz about this movie this past week because a recording from a screening of it (taken during the film's most spectacularly gory moment) was dropped online that has to be heard to be believed:
Audience reacting to a kill from ‘IN A VIOLENT NATURE’ during the Chicago Critics Film Fest screening of the film. An audience member also vomited during the screening.
