Jul 13 2007Death Sentence Trailer: Bacon H8s Skinheads
The trailer for Death Sentence is now online. It appears to involve Kevin Bacon going to war with a gang of skinheads because his son sucks at hockey or something. It's good news if your friends are always throwing white supremacy figures at you during games of Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon.
The movie also has Aisha Tyler, that chocolate skinned goddess who I used to fantasize about during her days as the host of Talk Soup. Mmm, I can just picture us having a brood of cheerful mulatto children who would sing and dance while I stirred a steaming pot Cream of Wheat on the stove. But perhaps I've just been watching too many newsreels from the 30s.

Looks good, but I know I'm going to be gritting my teeth the whole time wanting them to be hurt more.

I can't stand it in trailers when they steal soundtracks from other movies. This time we have a piece stolen from the soundtrack of 28 Days Later, 'In the House, In Heartbeat'. Narnia stole the theme from the Sci-Fi channel's Children of Dune. X-Men 2 stole Holst's Mars.
"...his son sucks at hockey or something." Heh.

No idea about the song...
Does not look terrible, but I think we saw all of the skinhead deathscenes right there in the preview...

name of the song is "east hastings", by Godspeed, You Black Emperor
play it at home and make chores (folding laundry, cleaning the cat box, queuing up porn torrents) all dramatic like.
for reals.

seems they make a distinction between "good ones" and "bad ones".
that, or affirmative action has corrupted *everything*.

This is one of the best action films I've ever seen. Kevin Bacon is NOT in combat with a bunch of skin heads. Tyler does look really old in this movie, bad lighting- so the lighting team may be the only people who are predjudice on this set. Kevin Bacon made this movie, and I was surprised he did such an awesome job. It is definitely worth watching again, and I was even more surprised it had the same director as the movie "Saw." Watch and enjoy the action.
