Extended preview: THINGS
Added 2022-03-04 20:48:27 +0000 UTCHowdy, Traxians! Brand new to the site it's THINGS! It's a cult classic that we've gotten many, many requests for in the past, and we're pleased to say that it's here! And it's also quite possibly THE WORST "MOVIE" WE'VE EVER DONE.
It almost feels wrong to call Things a movie. Things is more of an experience. It opens with a basement nightmare — at least, we hope it’s a nightmare — then eases into the main action of two bored Canadian guys trying to kill time in a dingy house while their buddy Doug sits in the next room. They find a tape in the freezer full of demonic recordings. They put tap water in their beer to make it better. They make a cockroach sandwich. And, eventually, some Things show up from another dimension. They’re bug monsters that don’t move because they’re not even puppets. The hosers go to battle with the bugs, using tiny chainsaws and drills. Meanwhile the movie goes to battle with your senses, as you try to make sense of what you’re seeing and hearing. Fortunately, we’re here to help guide you, or at least share in the “HUH?”
The movie itself is rated TV-MA for language, gore, nudity, graphic violence, and also for containing the movie THINGS. The Extended Preview comes in hot, once again, so don't say we didn't warn you!
I'd normally say "Enjoy!" here but that might not be the best word for it. So...
Observe!

So far, all good references to 'Final Sacrifice' folks👍🏻! I am also taking a stab-in-the-dark that the lady in bed getting her "meds" is probably get paid (in pills) at that moment for being in that film.

2022-03-05 20:49:26 +0000 UTCOK I think there was something wrong with my download. Surely you guys didn't intend to riff some idiot's home movies, right?

2022-03-05 20:07:46 +0000 UTCI’ve seen this on the Last Drive In and seriously, this is Manos level bad. Nothing makes sense, especially the “news” breaks. The villain can’t stop grinning at the camera. Every aspect of it is awful, yet you can’t look away if you can make it 10 minutes in.

2022-03-05 11:36:31 +0000 UTCOk, I know I'm not the only one that saw it. Please someone explain the question mark that shows for one frame under the director's title card... Maybe an upset editor, or just incompetence? It's all I can focus on in this clip.

2022-03-05 00:45:20 +0000 UTCIt’s probably a bad sign when even the preview is unwatchable.😬
