Prepare to get slapped ...

I can't fathom how it happened, but I somehow didn't hear about Bitch Slap: The Movie until [profile] backslashglare   gave me the heads up.  So, #1, thank you [profile] backslashglare   and #2 TRAILER TRAILER TRAILER .... TRAILER ...

Honestly, do yourselves a favor and watch the trailer! (link to official website)

Inspiration: “Bitch Slap” is a post-modern, thinking man’s throwback to the “B” Movie/Exploitation films of the 1950’s - 70’s as well as a loving, sly parody of same. Inspired by the likes of “Dragstrip Girls,” “Faster Pussycat, Kill, Kill,” “Kung Fu Nun” and the pantheon of Blacksploitation films, “Bitch Slap” mixes hot girls, fast cars, big guns, nasty tongues, outrageous action and jaw-dropping eye candy with a message… don’t be naughty! - source

Synopsis: “Bitch Slap” follows three bad girls (a down-and-out stripper, a drug-running killer and a corporate powerbroker) as they arrive at a remote desert hideaway to extort massive booty from a ruthless underworld kingpin. Things quickly spin out of control as allegiances change, truths are revealed, other criminals arrive for the score, the fate of the world hangs in the balance and they are forced to confront a villain much worse than they ever expected… themselves. - source

It's like Grindhouse (only Dakota and Cherry would've gotten it on - or Julia and Arlene, or Abernathy and Kim, or Zoe and Kim, or Lee and Abernathy or ... well, you get the point) 

For your visual pleasure ... Wonder Woman


And it gets better!  The cast list for the movie is amazing, geeks everywhere will rejoice. 

1.  Lucy Lawless
2. Renée O'Connor

Playing nuns!

And at this point I don't think I need to keep going but I will ;)

3. Zoë (motherfrakking) Bell
4. Kevin Sorbo
5. Michael Hurst
6. William Gregory Lee (from Xena,Dark Angel and Dante's Cove)
7. Mark Lutz (aka Groo, from Angel)

*sniffles, wipes eyes*  If somehow Tracie Thoms had been part of this movie, I think it would have been so awesome that my mind would have exploded upon viewing.

Can it be 2009 now?

Dear god, can we have this now??? I will be first in line at the theaters, seriously...

I know. It's almost cruel to tease us with this and then withhold it for so long. In a way it's probably better that I didn't hear about it until now, because if I knew about it months ago, I'd be crazy with anticipation.

i know what you mean! i knew about this weeks ago and i couldn't wait for 2009 already (that was the loose date they gave out)... good to know that i have a specific date to wait for now and it's this year to boot (albeit the last month of the year lol). but still! much yey!
