(02.01.07)'Grinder' – Listen up, the streets are talking!

More and more comments, articles and links are popping up on the web everyday regarding 'Grinder'. The word is out and people are getting really interested in this production. Here are some of the things people are saying: "Simply, it will be one of the greatest horror films EVER made." -Rock Confidential "A rather aurally unnerving teaser trailer." -Fangoria Magazine "The second teaser trailer for the film is pretty damn creepy even though there are only two people and a cat involved." -JoBlo "It's serious horror folks, and bleeds blood in the vein of 'Texas Chainsaw' and 'Hills Have Eyes'. It looks creepy as hell! Hats off to the folks at New Daydream Films. The production value on this is through the roof - dirty, grimy, smelly, and ugly. -Second Cinema "'Grinder' looks to have a lot of promise. It is quite obvious based on the directors statements that they are true genre fans looking to do justice to the horror style of film making. Looking forward to seeing how it checks out. -HorrorMovies.ca Website Links (all of these will open new windows): IMDB links: www.imdb.com/title/tt0892061/ www.imdb.com/title/tt0892061/board Fangoria magazine links: www.fangoria.com/news_article.php?id=2747 www.fangoria.com/news_article.php?id=2868 JoBlo links: www.joblo.com/arrow/index.php?id=5438 www.joblo.com/arrow/index.php?id=6042 All over the web: horror.about.com/b/a/256966.htm moviesonline.ca/film5819.htm secondcinema.blogspot.com/ www.bellaonline.com/articles/art48091.asp evildread.com/news_page.php?start_from=168&ucat=&archive=1162335610&subaction=list-archive&id www.horror-fanatics.com/upcomingmovies/grinder.html www.horror-movies.ca/horror_6756.html www.myamalgam.com/HORRORANDHILARITY.html www.ohmygore.com/newsuk-2415.html www.thefilmasylum.com/database/g/grinder/grinder.php 69.50.211.117/~yvigpfed/fangirls/movies/review-Grinder.htmlyvigpfed/fangirls/movies/review-Grinder.html 'Grinder' has even made it to Italy: www.horrorlandia.it/News.htm www.horrormagazine.it/notizie/2265/ www.horrormagazine.it/notizie/2343 Note from Homer: I could not get a proper English translation for these articles from any of the utilities on the web.
