    I thought the phone was going to be in James Deen's rectum.

    So, based on the NYT article, this is the performance that the director / producers thought was so magical from Lindsay?

  2. All I can hear is her wheezing. It's very distracting.

  3. What.The.Fuck. What a horrifying way to start a shitty movie. Is she supposed to look like a dead victim on SVU?

    1. @LMAO, remember the NYT article said she refused to change up her make up when they asked her to? She's so delusional.

      Delete
    2. Yeah, but they called it Kabuki, I think it's more Dead Girl Chic.

      Delete
    3. Ita she's soooo delusional.

      Delete
    4. Omg I didn't remember that kabuki part, now it's even more hilarious.

    5. Yes! It's the dead girl makeup from court! Or is it abused woman makeup?

  4. That's where all the pubic lice went!

  5. Why wouldn't Sundance snap this up?

    ReplyDelete
  6. I personally loved when she almost knocked the water bottle off the desk. Such gripping cinematography and the acting is just superb. I can't figure out why this wasn't selected for Sundance.

  7. HAVE YOU CHECKED THE CHILDREN??!!!

  8. WTF, I'm not sure what's worse her acting or the direction, this would even make it on a crappy never heard of cable channel, maybe NBC produced this...it's about their quality.

    ReplyDelete
  9. The whole time I was watching this, I was thinking "Bitch can't even find her phone right!"

  10. It's better than Liz and Dick.

  11. Does she have late-stage emphysema?


    Poor James Deen; I hope this doesn't ruin his career.

  12. c'mon y'all that is some Oscar worthy shite right there Leave this CHILD alone( says Delusional Dina)

  13. No.words.for.that.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Is this suppose to be based on her real life (LOL)?

    ReplyDelete
  15. I was really expecting much worse.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Quote from Michael K:
    That falling water bottle was giving the most in that scene

    ReplyDelete
  17. I cannot stress how much I FUCKING loooove James Deen.. Love him, cant ever convince me otherwise. (Ofc unless he fucks kids, animals or beats his ladies or children)

    ReplyDelete
  18. Well, her cowering and crying were pretty good. Deen is no actor either, and yes, direction awful. Oh well, they all tried, didnt they?

    Yep, it's all about Lindsay's bad "knocked-over water bottle" grab. They cut it short because it was so poorly done, but didn't even go to the trouble of trying for a better take. It's like a really bad home movie.

    I can't wait to see the entire thing :)

    ReplyDelete
  20. Does this mean that Lindsay is now competing with Kim K. for best porno video?

    Thanks for making it available, but I will pass on watching it. Comments from others are worth reading though.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Everyone knows that when you're trying to find your phone at a tricks house without waking them you let it ring once maybe twice. You listen for its origin and hang up. Then you go poking around in his bedside table. Lindsay knows this!!!

    ReplyDelete
  22. Ill never get that time back.

    ReplyDelete
  23. I was wondering why she woke up in the morning with so much makeup on.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Wow- she looks almost lifelike!

    ReplyDelete
  25. OMG, the water bottle! The holding the phone to her ear as if someone were going to answer! Hilarious!
    I think the only watchable part of this movie will be the 4 way sex scene with porn stars, Lindsey should just move on to porn Now , it's about her only option left.

    ReplyDelete
  26. why does she even try anymore?? no one wants to see her trashy ass on the screen.

    ReplyDelete
  27. She is quite the scene stealer, and by that I mean she boosted anything not nailed down from the set.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Why yes, whenever I have sex at someone's house, I wake up in the morning with full makeup, hair and nightgown on.

    I can't hate on the acting. She is far, FAR better than she was in Liz and Dick. Now if only they could have edited out the wheezing part.

    ReplyDelete
  29. He can't act, either.

    The heavy breathing is really irritating.

    So you wake up scared of your bedmate - that's what it looks like, anyway - and then you call your own phone to make sure he wakes up?

    ReplyDelete
  30. You guys made me laugh! Now I'm going to have to watch and I wasn't going to!

    ReplyDelete
  31. This whole mess just reminded me how the writer of this fabulous movie, Bret Easton Ellis, totally shitted on Katheryn Bigelow's good name a few months back on Twitter. Ellen Barkin wasn't having any of it.

    ReplyDelete
  32. The movie was made on a shoestring the publicity has been priceless...now they hope people will pay to see it...personally I'll pass...

    ReplyDelete
  33. Granted Bubble Guppies is on for my 2-year-old, but I kept watching thinking something was wrong with my laptop's volume.

    I can't believe the NYTimes devoted their time and space to this straight-to-DVD travesty. This could easily sweep the Razzies.

    ReplyDelete
  34. My favorite part would have to be the 13 numbers she pressed, when dialing the phone.

    ReplyDelete
  35. After reading that article, I just feel really bad for the director.

    ReplyDelete
  36. BTW, were they trying to be "BLOOD SIMPLE"? Good luck with that.

    ReplyDelete
  37. "This can't be my phone?" What kind of line is that?

    I also like that when she's listening hard for her cell phone to ring, she puts her ear closer to the cordless. Makes sense.

    ReplyDelete
  38. Some of the worst movies I've ever seen were based on Brett Easton Ellis stories. He is like the douchebag nation chronicler of late 20th century America. I'm sure there were nice people among the rich in the 1980's but Ellis didn't know any of them.

    ReplyDelete
  39. This looked like one of the lower quality SyFy channel original movies. I kept expecting Sharktopus to jump up and grab her from off the catwalk.

    ReplyDelete
  40. At least half the reason the NYT Magazine bought that piece was because of the connection to Bret Easton Ellis. He hasn't written anything decent for a couple decades, and apparently he's an ass on Twitter. But Ellen Barkin is wrong about one thing -- Mary Harron completely destroyed American Psycho when she took it to the screen, turned it into a complete mockery of what Ellis had been doing in that book and utterly refused to deal head-on with why it so disturbed the public, just turned it into a cartoon.

  41. @g.strathmore -

    if only, my friend. If only.

    ReplyDelete
  42. She really needs to quit injecting things other than man gravy into her face. During her whole crying scene she looks like she's laughing.

    ReplyDelete
  43. The real star here is that house! Gorgeous.

    ReplyDelete
  44. If I hadn't read the caption, I would have thought it was a very bad spin on the Walking Dead.

    ReplyDelete
  45. Okay: Yes, cordless thing-waaaay awkward; YES! def syfy low budget everything; Yes, lindsay still rocking that Deep Throat...

    Here I go again being that girl that defends her, BUT the end part intrigued me as the role of a make-up whore, starlet wannabe, abused, and victimsied chic playing it cool, could be WONDERFULLY executed by yours hatefully (I mean her not me ;p). If he and the script delivered, I think she could've too...I'm guessing it didn't happen but prob what she thought when she read the script.

    ReplyDelete
  46. I just lost three minutes of my life to watch that. James Deen might want to go from porn to main stream film. Him sleeping was better acting than LiLo wandering around calling her cell. I mean really people? And whoever said she looked like a dead vic on SVU hit the nail on the head.

    UGH.

    ReplyDelete
  47. this is heartbreaking on so many levels...1, argue all you want, but there was a point when LL had loads and LOADS of talent...wth did it go?! *sads* 2, that opening scene was 2 min. too long. 3, it appears to be an all-arond study in how the mighty have fallen. the director, paul schrader, used to be total GREATNESS...he f*cking wrote 'taxi driver', 'obsession', 'raging bull'...the man's work has been directed by other greats like scorcese and brian de palma. WHAT. THE. HELL. i can't wrap my head around this. the ONLY saving grace in this failure of an opus/opening sequence is that the house is spectacular--albeit w/ dirty floors (bc of course my neat freak side notices this). the rest...i just, i just...can't.

    ReplyDelete
  48. James Deens blog is interesting .. He's got this childlike enthusiasm mixed with a large loaded weapon and oodles of testosterone .. It's endearing in a way. He adores his costars, kittens and food... That being said he should stick to porn. Between starring, directing and producing he should be set for life.

    ReplyDelete
  49. Lilo never could act! Why are people surprised?? She talks every fucking line with zero emotion. Doesn't matter what movie.

    We only let it pass in Mean Girls cuz the movie was funny as hell.

    I enjoy Mr. Deen's other movies MUCH more for some reason.

    ReplyDelete
  50. i still can't believe he's only 26!
    I'm almost old enough to be his...whatever the fuck he wants me to be.

    ReplyDelete
  51. The NYT story said he had done 4,000 movies. Four thousand! That's, like, Wilt Chamberlain level stuff.

    But still, he's a nice Jewish boy.

    ReplyDelete
  52. Her body shape looks like shit now. His acting was more convincing tha. Hers got sure

    ReplyDelete
  53. Wow, just wow... This is atrocious!

    ReplyDelete
  54. Has anyone here even seen any of James Deen's porn? He specialises in humiliation, punishment, and gang bangs. If you're into watching a woman being thrown around by her hair, then slapped and spit on in her face then check him out.

    ReplyDelete
  55. When you're completely upstaged by a falling water bottle, your ghoulish makeup, a croaky voice and a sleeping porn star, it's time to pack it up and let an unknown with talent have a chance.

    ReplyDelete
  56. @january girl:what u said!

    ReplyDelete
  57. Has anyone seen the 1963 movie trilogy, "Black Sabbath"? (That band really did name themselves after this film). Lilo is starting to look like the dead lady w/the ring...

    ReplyDelete
  58. I read the article - isn't she supposed to be just oh-so-ahhhmazing and magical? Worst. Acting. Ever. From both of them.

    ReplyDelete
  59. I can't stand movies where the main character is a dumbass. Let me call my phone repeatedly so that it rings really loudly and awakens my violent penetrater.

    It's like in a horror movie where the girl hides in a closet and makes so much fucking noise breathing and crying, then acts surprised when the bad guy finds her. What did you expect?!

  60. YOU LIIIIIED TO ME!!

    That was funny.

  61. I think it's hysterical that they're blaming Lindsay's legal troubles for this being turned down at Sundance. But after that article, it's clear that everyone involved thinks it was a work of art.

    ReplyDelete
  62. If LiLo was talented, where did the talent go, why isn't she still talented?
    James Deen is the bees knees, his porno for pirates is sexy as fuck, that house is amazeballs, I thought that my computer was on the fritz because I couldn't hear a damn thing. B.E.E. was the pooh, Rules of Attraction is a great fucking movie. The End.

    ReplyDelete
  63. Does anyone else feel like Lilo got punk'd? With all the press leaks, and the interview from behind the scenes, I almost feel like this film was made to show us what a disaster she is! I mean all of her costars are poem stars, it was filmed on a shoe string budget at the direntor's house. Odd.

  65. So nice I had to watch it twice. Well, actually only like the first 10 seconds of it

    ReplyDelete
  66. I would so watch the shit out of this film!

    Yeah it looks bad - but bad in that 'OMG, can't stop watching' entertaining bad.

    I would get my best friend round to watch this if it ever comes out on DVD or whatever, and we would get drunk on gin and Jagermeister, all the while laughing at Lindsay's 'acting' and making lewd comments about James Deen that would make even him - a porn star - blush.

    Love ya James. You really should do more mainstream. Come to London, UK - I don't work in porn or anything but I can set up some casting coach situation in my house and we can just pretend for a bit, right? ;o)

    ReplyDelete
  67. I watched this and am just shocked. It seems like it was supposed to be a total spoof, much like the Scary Movies. Other than that, if it were on tv, I'd probably make some popcorn and watch it. I now have a secret crush on James Deen, though, so that may be the best outcome from this movie. Actually, this movie may be remembered for introducing him to mainstream, and for nothing regarding lilo. Which would be great....

  68. this is totally unrealistic. no one has a HOUSE PHONE anymore. geez!
