PotLuck!

Post by malfoygrandma » Tue Sep 25, 2007 8:41 am

aaa.gif My Glorious Jason! What an awful movie! Yet another waste of film, except for the nice cameo by Jason as an artist in NY making his living selling weed. He uses everything he has... face, muscles, voice, to show this frustrated painter unable to bring his latest painting to perfection, till he finally uses his own blood to smear it to its glorious conclusion, in his dying eyes. Well, the cameo is worth the price of this stupid movie to me, but maybe not to others!

Yeah, MG. This one falls under the unfortunate category of movie where Jason is the best thing in it.

"This is your Jason movie.
This is your Jason movie on drugs."

Poor Potluck--what a mess. I can't even comment on the storyline, because the audio was so technically bad, I couldn't make out what was goin' on. :-(

Well whatever you do, don't exchange it for "Hotel".
From what Hil and others have said, the two or so minutes that Jason is in it is not worth the balance of the film.
It's a bizarre, experimental film who's plot is probably lost on all but the director.

I hate to admit, I've never watched "Pot Luck" nor "Hotel"...

I've seen all the screen caps, but never the movies...LOL

Haven't seen Pot Luck. Probably won't either.
It was terrible by most accounts. :lol

Jason doesn't have much screen time in it, does he? For some reason I'm not interested in seeing this movie (though it would be nice to see all of his works!)
