http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6FyGHAUpSIQ

Due out Nov. 2, 2012

Starring Russell Crowe and RZA, the latter's feature-film directing debut. Co-written by Eli Roth, produced (and, from the look of the trailer, inspired by the films of and the films that inspired) Quentin Tarantino.

You in?

Not really sure what to think of this one, if I do see it it'll probably be on DVD.

Why wouldn't James review this and why is it flying so low under the radar?

Presumably because it's terrible and the producers are hoping for cult life on DVD. Sometimes filmmakers have to close their eyes, cross their fingers and pray that the words "underrated" and/or "overlooked" are carefully applied. RZA is likely doing that right... now.

It dosen't look bad but it dosen't look great either, just very average. Though I am surprised it hasn't gotten more attention given Tarantino's involvement.

I've seen it. It's incoherent, badly directed and edited (both visual and sound). Oddly the acting's not bad, but it's easily the worst movie I've seen this year.

The trailer is one of the worst things I've ever seen.
