This Movie is so f@#king offensive

I will not be seeing this movie, as should no one else.

I would like to Preface this by stating I’m a horror movie junkie, and consider myself pretty well versed in all things horror.

My problem with this movie is the premise- it’s based on the real life sexual assaults, murders and mutilations of hundreds of women in the border town of Juarez.

Some of the victims were only eleven or twelve years old.

The murders remain largely unsolved, partially due to lack of resources, partially due to the fact that no one really gives a damn about poor young women living in a Mexican border town.

The only reason I happen to know about it is because I did my final college paper on the murders and the possible socio-economic factors that contributed to them.

So imagine my surprise and dismay when walking through the video store last night, I happened to come across this dismal looking piece of crap on the shelf.

I would like to ask all of you to continue to urge people not to spend one dime on this movie- the general consensus seems to be that it’s pretty poorly made, no?
Well add to that fact that it is not an even an original premise.

It is exportation at it’s worse- capitalizing off of the VERY REAL death of hundreds.

Thanks for reading this.

"Borderline Cult"

I posted something similar to this on another board but it's still revelant today.

"My all time worse movie ever" should be seen by all so that y'all know what a "worse movie ever" really is. This is the epitome of "worse movie ever" and nothing really comes close at least in films made in the last 5 years or so.

Worse writing, directing, cutting, and even the video and audio is the "worst of the worst". The film appears to be filmed on a Wal-Mart cheapo video camera including the built in audio and attached microphones that comes with such cameras. When you can hear the actors speaking over the background noise, you can't understand what they are saying. With no captions available it's hard to follow but should probably be watched (if you really want to subjugate yourself to this crap) by all the "worst movie ever" crowd.

The actors/actresses seem to be the ugliest homeless people off the streets of Tijuana (or L.A.) they could find. Truly the "worst movie ever" the IMDB crowd felt it was so bad they originally gave it a 1.6 rating but fearing that the director and producer would commit suicide for creating such a totally worthless film. It has now dropped to a 1.5 and a continued drop is expected.

If you haven't seen this masterpiece of worseness, the epitome of pitiful pitifulness on whole wheat, then rent this film and view it so that in the future when you speak of the "worst ever" you truly have something to judge against.

Seriously, even after three showers, one sitz bath, and a sulfuric acid enema I still felt unclean after watching it and I was only able to get food down days later. Alas, even 3 1/2 years after viewing this movie I'm getting retching spasms writing about it.

Truly the worst of the worse. It doesn't even have one atom of social redeeming value, not even one mesom of entertainment, and is probably responsible for the wars in Pakistan, Afganistan, Iraq, and the lawlessness of the Sudan pirates. Even the poor economic condition of the World is most likely caused by the the making, production, and releasing of this thing called a movie.

God help us all if any more films this bad are realeased on DVD!

Yeah, and every documentary on the Third Reich is capitalizing "off the death of tens of millions."

Next time use your head instead of retarded, overemotional reactions.
