I wased $2 and this movie, it is so bad. I could have made a better movie with the two dollars that I spend on this. do the people who made this know that there movie is crap, or do they think it is good?
shareI made the same mistake by not paying enough attention to the DVD box. The rental place wouldn't give me my money back either. This movie is total crap.
shareI also made the same mistake, and also didn't get my money back. Mostly because I was too embarrassed to try. >.< What a waste of time and money, not just for the people who rent it, but to all the people involved making it.
shareI just watched this and yes, it really is the worst movie I have ever seen. What I would like to know is how did this pile of idiotic garbage get released by a well known distribution company Lions Gate and why does Blockbuster carry it? It's an obvious con to try and get money from people who are looking for the real Black Dahlia, the one by Brian DePalma starring Scarlett Johansson and Josh Hartnett. I had no idea crap like this was going on so I was not careful enough to read the package. I wish there were people at my Blockbuster who would have made me aware that this is not the real movie I was looking for. I just feel violated. This was worse then any student film I've ever seen. Shot on a camcorder, no plot whatsoever, cheesy annoying effects every 5 seconds, terrible dialogue and acting. Who is this Ulli mother *beep* I wanna find him and kill him the way all the girls in this steaming pile of trash got murdered for conning me into watching it. Lions Gate should be ashamed of themselves for releasing it and Blockbuster should be ashamed of themselves for carrying it.
shareThe exact thing happenned to me. I bought this and I thought it was DePalma's one, what a mistake! I've should've payed more attention to the box. I started watching it and I just couldn't stop laughing at this piece of crap. That guy in the red sweater doesn't change it in the entire movie (or what I watched of it, since I took it out of my dvd without finishing it). Not even the gore is good in this movie... who the hell thinks that a lot of blood would make a good movie?... This movie is total crap and nobody should ever watch it. on the other hand, if you hate someone and really want'em to have a bad time, tie'em to a chair and play this movie once and again :P

I don't know how many people got abused by the title, but apparently quite a few. And I am sure that this is not an unfortunate coincidence. I fell into the same trap, wasting my time and almost five bucks. Being German myself, I feel ashamed. It is hard to believe that Lommel's father was a well known comedy actor and that his son acted under the prestigious Rainer Fassbinder. On a german website you can learn that Lommel went to Hollywood in the late seventies. I can only say that this was one of our worst exports to the United States ever.
shareoh wow, this thread is funny
sharewowww.. me too!!
worse than paying R$ 5,00 (around US$ 2,30), is wasting something more than 1 hour of my life watching the worst movie i´ve ever seen!!! ridiculous! i can't tell you how many times i fell asleep during the movie!
Oh yeah, it's the worse R$ 5,00 (around US$ 2,30) that I ever spended in my hole life!!!
Excepet when Danielle Petty is changing her clothes. ;)
i was kinda ashamed to return the movie at to the clerk...
i should've asked my brother to do so...
i told the guy to get every copy of the movie they had, throw in a hole and BURN IT!!!!
What a jip!
We got this movie, thinking it was starring Josh Hartnett and Scarlett Johannsen.
WRONG. Just like the rest of you, we fell into the same trap. We watched all of two minutes before we shut it off, but from the very first scene I just knew that this was NOT the movie we were wanting to watch.
I was so pissed it wasn't even funny.
I felt like I had been had. HA!
Waste of time and money...but I'm sure whoever thought of this sly marketing ploy is laughing it up, while we're fumbling with the remote, cussing, as we try to shut this crap off.
im not sticking up for the movie... it sucked but if you can not read the dvd box i would not give you your money back. in my opinion it was a crappy flick but thats what you get you non-reading S.O.B's
shareSame here!
sharei hate this movie. we all fell into the same trap. me and my friend just watched the whole thing and when we looked it up on IMDB we were so mad. it was the worst hour of my liffeeee. and the cover is misleading! because on the front and the back it looks like it would be a reputable movie but it looks like some crappy student film. whatev

I didn't confuse this one with the Josh Hartnett movie but the box says "from the director of The Boogeyman" so I DID confuse the director of an older film with the director of the more recent Boogeyman movie. Even though that movie wasn't great; there was decent editing and effects in it. So it came as a surprise that Dahlia looked like a high school film project that received a failing grade. Paid 3 bucks for it used and sold it back to the store then next day for a buck fifty. Just wish I could get my gas money back for the trip.....
Wow...
Ok.. That makes 2 Black Dahlia movies, both made in 2006, and BOTH of them sucked serious ASS! I despised both of these movies, equally. The funny thing is, in BOTH movies, the murder of Elizabeth Short (The Black Dahlia) is just a moot point in both films, and the whole story of Miss. Short is just backdrop to both of these movie's lame-ass storylines...
Someone... PLEASE just make a damn bio pik on the live of Liz Short, for Christ's sake...
