I can't stand it anymore! Curiosity has got the better of me. Have ordered my copy from Amazon. Have also ordered copious amounts of alcohol to numb the pain.

Any self respecting WoTW fan should see the PP movie at least once. Just to judge for themselves. For me, any deficiencies in the FX and the overlength of the film, etc, are watered down a bit by Piana's daft (but somehow enjoyable) acting style. That guy cracks me up!

Enjoy the film Spleen - I'm sure you will be gracing us with your review when you have endured it. I can see you venting yourself (spleen) on it.

Speechless! Going to have to watch that again, just to believe my eyes. ;D Tell you what, I'm going to send it off to You've Been Framed, I could make a fortune!

I'm just as guilty of focusing on the bad FX as any. Honestly, it's the editing and (lack of) direction which are the worst elements of the film. Many of us can forgive bad FX in an otherwise good film. Am trembling with anticipation already!!!!  Perhaps it's really quaking in fear, and you just don't realize it... or if you've gotten a head start on the "copious amounts", possibly the DTs... <Lensman ducks>

Got drunk last night and watched this film again. It really is wretched effluvium. I've asked my girlfriend to hide it somewhere so I don't do something silly like that again.

Welcome to the 'unclean' masses, I think it is somekind of zombie virus consipracy  Anyone who sees it walks that little bit slower, dragging their heels, their head hung low in shame, their eyes red and swollen, an expression of emptiness glazed on their face and a slow inaudible murmer escapes their lips...... The shaking was the first sign of the virus starting to work... we're doomed I tells ya!!

I really need to see this. I've talked myself out of it for so long, I think I might just have to go for it and hope for the best. I must get round to Asylums at some point as well. I'm so behind!

I chucked them in the bin and the binmen posted them back through my letter box. If they don't go I will use them as coffee table drink coasters ;D

Do you know how you get those stickers you put in your window that reads - BURGULARS BEWARE - and underneath there is a picture of a dog?. Well I cut the dog picture off a replaced it with a screen cap of Anthony Piana. I tell you, the crime rate in my street as dropped by 65%.

I've rumbled your game HC!
This is like The Ring conspiracy, you have to pass on your copy of PD's WOTW to rid yourself of the nightmares, sleepless nights and spasmodic laughing fits.
I shall place mine inside the cover of a completely different film, sell it then move away so it can't be returned to me.
Erm, does anyone want to buy a copy of Pendragons The Wa......... erm, I mean Gallipoli starring Anthony........ oh arse, I mean Mel Gibson?
