Barry Lee Dejasu Wrote:It's because for a lot of people nowadays, the title of the movie makes it sound like some kind of bad porno flick. I never thought that until people started poking fun about it (very) recently; otherwise, I heard "Midnight Meat Train," I shuddered - it's a really grim, creepy image to me.

I'm not sure if it's widescreen or full screen (SSSSS...), but either way, it's here, finally! DVD coming sometime soon!
I know I sound like such a promoter, but if you're like me and have been waiting for a chance to see this movie for a long, long time (and subsequently getting more and more anxious to do so with all of Lionsgate's wonderful delays), then this is an exciting time.

Give us a review after you watched it, will you Baz?
