Now what if I were to tell you that it starred Vinnie Jones (the big guy from Lock, Stock, Snatch, and the Mean Machine) and STONE COLD STEVE AUSTIN?
I believe you might say, "Ayatollah, this wonderful masterpiece must be called 'Heaven'." To which I would reply, "Well, close, but the producers have decided to call it 'The Condemned'."
Check out the trailer here.

That's awesome! The action should be fantastic, provided Steve doesn't have to do any deep knee bends....seriously, his knees are in really bad shape afer Wrestlemania...um, well one of 'em any way.
Seriously, though, I sure hope we get to see him pound some beers! That was always my favorite part.
I always like an action hero who can pound a beer faster than any regular joe.
Alright, i'm going to go ahead and say it. This is fucked up on about 8,000 different levels.
And Sarge, I'm not ignoring you, but life has been a little more than busy lately. I will call you soon.
i liked that movie the first time i saw it when it was called battle royale!
I was thinking of the Arnold classic, Running Man...
Damn! I was gonna say I liked it the first time when I played it as a video game called Smash TV, but you trumped me with the Running Man reference, Vyux. A clear predecessor to Smash.
Sean, what's "Battle Royale"? I couldn't find a record of it in imdb.com. Who's in it?
Also, I'll take a movie that's fucked up on 8,000 levels over an "actual" "reality" show that's only fucked up on, say, 4 or 5,000 levels.
you can't forget that ICE T movie where white guys hunt him. Though a slightly different premise.....theres something special about white guys hunting a black homeless guy...
"Surviving the Game"
From IMDB:
Mason, who lives on the streets, wants to cease his life when on the same day his two best friends die: His dog and an older man with whom he shared his food and roof. Just in time Cole, from a charity organization, can prevent his suicide and also offers him a quite well paid job as servant for a hunting party in the Rocky Mountains. Mason accepts the job and flies with them to a hut in the wilderness where they prepare everything for the four rich businessmen who want to hunt something special. Mason does not yet know that he is the victim of their sports that should lead to the basic insticts of man, but they did not count with his cleverness...

Ahh yes, an eternal theme which of course also finds a voice in John Leguizamo's immortant "The Pest."
Probably the best single thing ever mentioned on the Jackblog.
Also from imdb.com:
Miami scam artist Pest Vargas (John Leguizamo) is on the run from the Scottish mob and a German headhunter, the mob after 50,000 dollars, the German guy after his head. Pest dons many disguises in an attempt to evade their clutches.
I'd also like to point out that imdb's first three "Plot Keywords" for this epic achievement are "Fake Blindness/Fart/Father Son Relationship."
Yep. That pretty much sums it up.
Will somebody tell me what the hell "immortant" means? Somewhere between immortal and important perhaps? Well, yes, in that case I'd say it IS the perfect word to describe Leguizamo's masterpiece.
Dan, it's a Japanese movie about 42 ninth graders transported to an island against their will where they must compete to the death until there is only one survivor.
http://imdb.com/title/tt0266308/
also i didn't think it was that obscure of a movie but i guess now that i think about it my first exposure to it was through other japanese nerds. i didn't know it wasn't released in the u.s.
Maybe you didn't notice that "The Pest" stars JOHN LEGUIZAMO.
So, yeah. That one definitely is.
