Tell me this doesn't look cringe-makingly terrible....

That's a spoof, right?

The pitch must have been worth watching, though.

It looks like a parody of itself. And it explains those joke YouTube clips with beaver puppets lip-syncing Mel's ranting psychotic phone calls a few months ago.

Kate, I just looked that up at your mentioning - someone already did one for this trailer! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RTIO4rza5vQ

Wasn't this the most highly rated unfilmed script for years? Then Gibson and Foster got involved.

Stick this in the hands of a quirky indie director, with some good unknown actors, a cool soundtrack, and a script devoid of sentiment, and you'd probably have a little gem of a film...

That would have been the way to go, Gary!

But it looks like this film will be an ever worse version of LARS AND THE REAL GIRL....

I wrote a script a long time ago: it was a comedy about a down-and-out guy whose left hand (unsevered, unlike its horror inspirations in film) suddenly comes to life, a crazy gesticulating personality who leads him to a better life.... It's total garbage. But hey, garbage is doing pretty well in Hollywood nowadays, methinks....
