His movie 'Vengeance.'


I remember seeing the trailer in front of "Filly Brown" when I saw it last April, but the question in my mind is if this movie is ever going to come out. I saw that it had release dates from late August, to early October (On the same day as "Machete Kills" coming out) to November and now February.

I saw the trailer and it looks so low in budget that I wonder if the creators didn't have the means or what. I am still curious about checking it out, but it could just be released a straight-to-DVD release, but I am really wondering if this will even be in theaters, not to mention a wide release. I'll still watch it, but I can see that this movie had been shelved for a long time. I even noticed on YouTube that there was a trailer that was posted back in 2010. Did studios have no hope for this?

My guess is that it's a piece of trash and Danny's career has progressed so far that releasing it now would be an insult, both to Danny and to those of us who love him so much.

I heard in 09 Danny started a campaign that would give his fans free copies of this movie,well you still have to pay 5.99 for shipping and handling,but you would not have to pay 14 or 15 bucks. IDK if that is still the case though. The Vengeance IMDB page it says the movie is being released on the 22nd of this month

I can only assume that if it shows in my area, there will only be so few theaters that would show it. I know a couple of theaters in my town that are Cinemark and Regal locations that have shown indie films. There is another place that is independently owned that has shown mostly indie films and art-house movies. I guess there might be a chance that it will be shown where I live, but in some ways I am doubting it.

If it's being released this month, chances are it will be on cable within a year. I'll keep an eye out for it.

I don't think that this movie is ever going to be released. To be honest, I remember seeing the trailer for this last April. I even read release dates going from August to October to November to February of this year. I think some people have been changing the release date on this website.

If it were up to me, I would release it just on DVD and Blu-Ray. The movie was already made years ago. Have there been movies that have been made but never actually released?

There are thousands of films that were made and shelved permanently in Hollywood for years and years. I wish the "movers and shakers" could be forced to release all that work to the public somehow.

Sometimes it takes a couple years for to find distrubutor a dvd lots of movies came out last year and this year that had trailers since 2009 and 2010. There is this indie movie called Skylar there was a trailer for that movie in 2008 or 2009 and it came out on dvd last year.

I just bumped my old thread. Anyway, I noticed that the page said 2006 by the title, which makes me wonder how old this movie is. It seems like it was filmed back in 2005 or 2006, but it was probably pushed back for an initial release in 2010, then a studio tried to green-light it last year and I know this because I saw a trailer for it attached to "Filly Brown." I read some threads about this movie on its page. Some people said that they have seen it and that it is rather bad.
