RT on DVD: Giddy Up With Appaloosa, Forget My Best Friend's Girl

2. Mirrors -- 14%



Apparently, Jack Bauer can't save everything. Despite starring erstwhile 24 hero Kiefer Sutherland, this lethargic Korean horror remake about -- you guessed it! -- demonic mirrors never reached above #4 at the box office last summer. The spooky tale, directed by French horror director Alexandre Aja (High Tension), should have yielded much more; instead, Mirrors barely out-grossed Aja's previous slasher, The Hills Have Eyes, and is his worst-reviewed film to date. Horror devotees may still want to check out the Unrated DVD release for an alternate ending and Aja's commentary on select scenes; we might recommend a Blu-ray rental just to see Amy Smart's head ripped apart in HD.

I was under the impression that Vicky doesn't come out until next Tuesday.

Yah, on my list I got Tokyo Gore Police already out, and Vicky out 1/27/08

Otherwise, good list Jen. I'm watching Humboldt County and Appaloosa.

Thank God for "Vicky Christina Barcelona". Because every thing else looks uninteresting (like Tokyo Gore Police/Brideshead Revisted) or horrible (My Best Friends Girl/ Mirrors). I don't think "VCB" looks hilarious, but it does look sexy. And a little soft core porn never hurt. I'd see "Appalossa", but wasn't it just in theatres. A pretty weak week.

Tokyo Gore Police sounds fun. I prefer Woodys old silly stuff. I'll check it out to be fair anyway.

Ah, so it is. Sorry folks. Guess Tokyo Gore Police is the best title of the week. Apologies.
