« on: February 23, 2008, 03:17:17 PM »
i wanted to see it last night but it's no longer playing in Houston (was for a while).

movies.yahoo.com has "showtimes and tickets" greyed out.  It says that it earned 285 thousand dollars.  wow.  i wanted to see it too

The movie had a ridiculously limited release. Never came anywhere near me, unfortunately :(

I got in contact with a local independent theater to try to get them to show it, but I haven't heard back yet.

It seems to still have hokey shit from Land of the Dead.  Fuck.

It was only showing on like 50 screens. A token theatrical run before they drop it on DVD.

Listen guys, I need your help. Please.

See if you can sucessfully mail:
jw@endlessmountainstheatre.com
or
webmaster@endlessmountainstheatre.com

And throw your support behind them getting a showing of the film.

When I emailing the addresses, I end up getting a delivery failure message like 36 hours later. I know some people that have successfully mailed them, but no matter how I try to do it it doesn't work.
