JLentz	post #1  on March 21, 2006 - 12:07 AM PST   A friend sent me this letter: So I've been stuck on this one movie for quite awhile now. I seen it either on Sundance or IFC. It's been probably 2 or so years, and I can't remember if it was subtitled or not. Anyways, some of the plot.. it was about a teenage couple who kill another in a locker room, he's some kind of athlete. They take him out to the woods to bury him and are held captive by some weird mountain guy. He keeps them in some kinda basement thing in his cabin with the dead body. Lemme see, from what I remember he makes stew from the athlete's leg. He uhhh.. takes more of an interest in the boy from the couple, and I do remember some man on man action. My mind is kinda thinking too that the girl was shot at the end. Argh, I hate when I can't remember things. I don't think it was a difficult name either. I hope you know it. I'm stuck. I was telling my friend about it the other day and I was gonna netflix it for him, but DUH.. no name and I've tried googling it. .................There! She needs help! If you know it please reply!

It's lovely! ;-) No seriously... hmm... let me think on it... Any horror buffs out there? Btw, let's use this thread to ask about other movies you're trying to think of, rather than create a new thread each time. Yah?

Which could arguably be a really bad idea (if she gets disgusted then all shot at love is out) or a really good idea (if she *does* like it and it does lead to love then he'll *know* she's a keeper and we'll *know* we like her already).
JLentz	post #9  on March 23, 2006 - 1:05 PM PST   THIS is the FILM!!! She couldn't believe it! She said she has been trying for two years to get the name. Now she wants me to tell her How I got the answer!!!? If I tell her you guys told me, it might make me less attractive to her... But I don't want to lie... She seemed to get all aroused when she got the name of the movie, like a big release after the weight of not knowing was lifted. She told me I was so knowledgable about cinema and that she thought that I would be handy to have around. She played with a button on my shirt and whispered in my ear. Her breath was hot on my neck. And she asked me again, "How did you know the answer so fast?" Do I lie and say I knew? Or tell her it was DLeonard and Hamano? Help!
lizzoqops	post #10  on March 23, 2006 - 1:46 PM PST   Just tell her that knowing the answer or knowing how to find the answer...they're basically the same thing. Keep it a little mysterious.
shiori308	post #11  on March 23, 2006 - 3:13 PM PST   Tell her she has to have sex with you to find out... wait, that doesn't work? Ohhhh so that's what I've been doing wrong my whole life!!

No? Otherwise, roll-the-dice and take your chances. Caveat Emptor.

No? > Hell, you go long enough without, the waking-up-sans-kidneys seems like a reasonable trade before the event. I mean if a hot woman said she'd spend a night making passionate love to you be cut you into kabobs in the morning would you you weigh your options a *littttlllle* bit? Be honest. (or maybe I just feel very uncomfortable when I can't figure out what the catch will be before we start. And there's *always* a catch... right. Or is that just woozy?)
Ursus	post #14  on March 23, 2006 - 4:48 PM PST   I probably wouldn't mind so much if I were a mindless Praying-Mantis, Spider, or Angler Fish male who was ALREADY doomed to die after coitus (which really doesn't bother me that much as I HATE SPIDERS WITH AN INTENSE PASSION/RAGE, and Angler fish are spooky as hell). Sweet Lovin' or even Bland Lovin' aside, that is an AWFULLY HIGH PRICE TO PAY! I don't imagine that my inner Romeo/tragic-romantic could win out over the "other-shoe" of being eviscerated post-coitus. That being said, I would hate to say that under certain situations that "option" might for the briefest of moments be entertained, i.e. being stranded on a deserted island only to rescued years later by savagely smokin'-hot cannibal amazonians who mate then kill, but when is that going to happen (besides in a Horror/Porno- if that genre even exists on film : ) )??? I would hope that should the day arrive and I am faced with such a predicament (Lord knows how that will happen???) that I shall have the fortitude, and will power to "put down my cards and step back from the table," as it were. I love women. Please pardon my "male-ness," ladies, I really, love women. But... that may be my limit. Love Responsibly: Know when to say When. And... When not to. ^__^

Say you don't!!!! Spiders are the greatest and coolest things in creation! Well, bats and baby goats are pretty high up there too, but spiders are so incrediably cool! It's a, a, .... *sin* to harm them.
