I don't remember any of the murderers of 20 women being castrated. The first one got an axe to the chest, the second got his ass kicked and was finished off with a rock to his skull, the third was strangled, and the fourth one hanged himself. And this "violence against men" was to four brutal murderers who hunted down and killed 20 women. Yet no thought that these four killers were "woman-hating" men? Wow. This movie wasn't about four innocent helpless men who were violently killed by a man-hating woman. They got their much deserved comeuppance.
If you are that butthurt as a man to see other men (like you?) get what was coming to them, then I STRONGLY advise you to stay away from the film "I Spit on Your Grave". You'll be upset that your buddies were schooled by a woman too. Grow a pair, or pray that they get larger, among other things. Have a nice day.
Me too.
Her accent is so awful I barely got through the movie. Melissa Gilbert might be a good actress, but accents are not her thing. She's horrible at doing them. I mean, she's really bad and pedestrian, and a million or more people could do one better.
If you can believe it, she did a tv show (only lasted a couple of weeks) where she attempted a New Yawk accent, and it was even more cringeworthy. Like, shockingly the worst attempt at a NY accent you'd ever hear. No wonder that show was cancelled quickly.
This was almost as bad. Why even bother I wondered, because the movie would have been just fine without it. I was waiting for the male love interest to stop her mid-sentence and tell her character "It's okay, you don't have to pretend you're French. You're not even close." Or something.
Or the obvious. Kill the weirdo Martin and his crazy ass mother.
THANK YOU for asking this!!! Before I asked, I searched here to find out. It was like, everything is mayhem on the highway, Charlize escapes from the car, and opens the trunk and out pops some random woman who gets up and runs away.... like WHAT??? Whodat? I was so confused. lol
But thank you for the people who answered, and it triggered my memory of them in the parking garage where Keven bangs this woman's head for no apparent reason. I forgot they put her in the trunk, I guess. I wish I had seen the movie from her perspective, to tell the truth.
HOWEVER, I wish there had been ZERO explanation for why some random woman would fall out of an upside down crashed car and just randomly run away, that would have made this movie better and more hilarious. (I didn't like it much....)
Not as far as I could tell, and I wondered the same thing. Maybe he was at the local bar talking up other 30 y/o dishwater blonds in need of a root job and was just distracted?
Perhaps Frady was finally convinced that Lee was correct that she was on a "list" to be killed, and that he was next, and decided to get a fake ID of someone no one would care about. If he were to continue his investigative reporting it'd probably be best if he's seen as just some loser misfit that isn't a threat to anyone and just wants to live below the grade. It just seems he would have changed his look along with that and not have his $400 Beverly Hills haircut throughout, but WB is, well, oh so vain. Plus, there likely is SOME photo of Frady at the Space Needle that day, that a company like Parallax would be on top of, and possibly noticed he tried to go up in the elevator with the Senator and Lee and whoever else. And lo and behold the same guy with the same hairdo is going around questioning the deaths, and he looks just like that journalist....
As brilliant as some feel the writing is in this movie, it has to be noted that they were basically writing the script as the movie was going, so there are going to be plot points that won't make sense. Hume Cronyn even asked the producers two days before he filmed his scenes if he was going to be a police chief or an editor. It was either brilliant to some or horribly thrown together to others.
But no one came out and said the Dahmer films were COMEDY. Imagine if Haynes directed one of the Dahmer movies, said it was a dark comedy and if you didn't see that then you must not be sophisticated enough to see it. I wasn't disturbed by the subject matter, in fact, I was touched to see how Joe/Vili finally realized that for twenty years since he was 12 he never really matured in the world. He never had another girlfriend. In that respect I thought it was good. But I failed to see the comedy in this.
I agree. I've now read several reviews where I am basically being told that I'm somehow movie illiterate or too rigid to not find the humor in this. That the movie was SUPPOSED to make you sad, but on the other hand make you want to laugh. I didn't laugh at one moment of this. I'm all for dark comedy. And most horror movies have a comedy aspect that I always laugh through when some bimbo is getting hacked because of her own stupidity, but I just didn't find child rape and the serious emotional ramifications displayed by the now-adult victim funny at all. The director said that was the purpose, to feel uncomfortable of finding something funny in a tragedy. But the thing is, I didn't feel uncomfortable until later when I realized it was actually a comedy. It's like seeing Millionaire Dollar Baby and then being told after it was actually a comedy. Didn't work for me.
Would you feel the same if you had been just starting puberty at 12 and she was 20?
You seem to be hopelessly ignorant and defiantly proud of it. Okey, dokey, idiot. And yes, you are a troll. A really ignorant and pathetic one. Thanks for playing, idiot. Shit off. LOL
Exactly. For Carrie to think she was even close to having a case with thinking Aidan was wrong for opposing Carrie and Big to see each other and be "friends" just shows how unrealistic and self-involved she is.
Let's think of it this way. If my husband wanted to remain friends with an ex, and he said it's strictly platonic now, I WOULD let them be friends. Who knows maybe I could be friends with her. I'm not really the jealous type, and think I know my spouse well. HOWEVER, if he started cheating on me with her, then THAT'S IT. I wouldn't want to ever see her face or hear about her EVER again. And I would demand that he end their now not-so-platonic-after-all friendship. And I don't think that is being unreasonable.
So for Carrie to think it's all hunky dory for her to continue to remain friends with Big and expect Aidan to be okay with it after she cheated on him with Big, well, she's delusional. Poor Aidan. I'm so glad he dumped her skinny A and found a nice woman to have a family with. Let Carrie live the rest of her life with drama with Big. I didn't watch the last movie, did she and Big get divorced finally? They both deserved each other.
Woman here, too. I don't swing that way either, but I wouldn't be repulsed at the idea of hooking up with Samantha. She seems so comfortable sexually. I probably wouldn't do anything to her below the waist, but could see me interested in what she can do to me there. Like a more intense massage? lol. This is all theoretical, not going to happen.
Well, I'm a woman, not bi but open minded I guess. I'd pick Samantha too. She'd make me feel comfortable because she's so comfortable with her sexuality. Miranda and Charlotte would be too "we should just be friends" for me. And Carrie was too much drama and never got over things.
Samantha it is.
That would be my answer verbatim. Miranda is a friend I'd have for life. Samantha when I need fun and a pick me up, but probably wouldn't ever depend on her. Charlotte seemed too uppity for me and judgmental. Nice girl, and I could appreciate her opinion on many matters.
Carrie? I'd be so over her self-involvement. I get it, I was that way until my 30s, but Carrie just never grew out of it. She would be someone I'd keep on my cellphone and if our paths crossed, maybe I'd see her a couple times a year. But then I'd have to hear about her poor choices in men, her whining about one thing after another, and after a night out, I'd say great to see you and maybe see her after another several months.
So, it's totally Miranda for me. And also, I would be the "Miranda" on this show, so maybe it's because we are so alike.
I agree. I got married in my 40s and thought how crass it would be to register somewhere. I was independently well-off as well as my husband and by 40 it's way past acceptable to register and expect your friends and family to give you unnecessary gifts.
Every man in my family is cut. Or mutilated as you like to put it. The first guy I slept with who was unmutilated was an experience I will never forget. First of all, seeing it unerect was not attractive to me. But I soldiered on and when I "went down there" it was stinky. Like really bad urine/sweat/smegma stinky and the smell got stuck in my nose for a couple of days, also on my hand no matter how many times I washed it. I was self-conscious that someone could smell it on me. Ever the Doris Day trooper, I just made sure before we had sex we'd sit in the hot tub for an hour and shower thoroughly. It still stunk. Couldn't go south of the equator. A couple years later I went out with another unmutilated and it was the same thing, like, how freaking hard is it to keep it clean and unstinky? I'm always clean as a vistle down there, why so hard for a man?
Plus, unmutilated men have a higher risk of HPV infection and penile cancer. The last thing I want in me is a reservoir of HPV and risk HPV infection. It's a health issue for me.
Fortunately, my husband is mutilated and he is so thankful for being so. I agree with him.
I just started rebinge-ing it on Max. Towards the end of the series I originally ended up hating her. So this week, starting from the first episode, I thought "She's not so bad...". The first season she was fine. Then the second season she was intolerable with all the Big drama. I'm now on season 3 and Big married Natasha, and I can't stand her. I was like, wow, my intense dislike really started at season 3. I don't know how I'll get through the rest of the series. She's insufferable. She should have taken the hint that Big married Natasha who is everything Carrie is not, in every good way. Carrie was still stuck in her 20s. And really shouldn't be advising anyone on sex/dating.
And I am NEVER going to put myself through any of those after movies.
She's selfish, inconsiderate, whiny, manipulative, and just a chore to be around. Frankly I don't understand how Samantha, Charlotte, and Miranda put up with her S. I'd have dumped her from my closeknit friends clique. I am a mean girl, I guess.
Dude, I wrote "brava" from the first. Just because you don't have a clue what it meant is not my prob. I never edited anything. Stop making up excuses for your ignorance and lack of education, mmkay? Maybe Ma can tutor you?
