I’ve never heard about this before, but Val Kilmer once starred in a movie called Dead Girl about necrophilia. Now that’s dead interesting. (Oh dear!)
Movieweb carry the story from Variety.
…ten years after production wrapped on the $3 million Dead Girl, a dark drama about necrophilia, the Val Kilmer starrer is finally getting a chance to find an audience, albeit a small one.
With his semi-autobiographical “Hollywood Buddha” — based in part on his experience with Dead Girl — bowing on several screens in New York, filmmaker Philippe Caland has inked a deal to make Dead Girl available for a single day — March 16 — as the premiere VOD pic from online musicstore NetMusic.com.
Caland was unable to find a distrib for the controversial film in the ’90s…So the pic lingered on Caland’s shelves — until critics and investors saw “Buddha” and began asking about its status.
According to the story there’s not much chance of finding a Distributor as Mr Kilmer is not too happy with the movie and would rather it wasn’t released. That and it could well be complete twaddle considering he also produced Boxing Helena!
Still the film does intrige me, and there’s something to be said for just going ahead and downloading it to show interest in downloadable movies. He says that this is more an experiment to gauge interest rather than a commercial exercise. Right, let’s see 100,000 downloads and then a release soon after as he uses the information to pump up Distributors.
Has anyone seen this movie and can comment on it? How bizarre is it really?
NOT GOOD! You must be kidding, anything he’s in is terrific! Please, please make more movies with him in them. I know I’ll buy any he’s in.
Just sick.
yuck
