Paramus, NJ watches THE FACULTY

Harry here, and I just want to say that I'm very sorry about the recent site problems, we've been working with GTE to get the site back up and running for all of you. This sort of thing bugs the hell out of me, because... well there is sometimes time sensitive news that I get... that well... sorta falls by the wayside. Case in point... THE FACULTY screening in Paramus, NJ last night. I was going to post it up on the site two days ago, along with a lot of other updates, but well... the site was down. ARGH! However, about 5 people chimed in about THE FACULTY with teeny tiny bits on the film. If you were at THE FACULTY last night, let's hear about it. All 5 people basically mirrored Aimee here, and perhaps she'll write up a bigger piece as well. So until a fuller report is given, here's the first word...

Hey, I saw The FAculty this evening in Paramus, New Jersey. It's excellent and you were right about the opening sequence being a classic. I LOVED that you were in it, especially got a kick out of you carrying the water coolers around. I wanted to let you know that a few people made cheering noises when you were on screen. Rodriguez and harvey Weinstein were at the screening, it was a very cool experience.

and then there is this one from Warlock...

Harry, Saw The Faculty last night. Good shit. Robert Rodriguez was there, he's just too cool. The film starts off with a great opening sequence with Bebe Neuwirth, but it's the title sequence that just fucking rocks. Dude you were on screen with Salma Hayek. You suck. I started laughing because there were cheers when you appeared and I thought that that had to be disconcerting for the Miramax types, because it was kinda like saying, "Read about this screening on AICN" LOL.

The cool time lapse stobie sort of thing with your water bottle carrying weas too cool. Being the coolest thing in a scene with Robert Patrick and Piper Laurie rocks the boat. But it must be noted that you are not the star of the film. No. In fact there really isn't "a star", it's like this whole group of kids, which actually do look High School age unlike those overage flunkouts in the Scream or I Know films.

The film does a great job of going along being one thing, then when the film is coming in at the finish line it just explodes. There seemed to be a lot of effects stuff that wasn't done yet, but what we could see of everything was real damn cool. Tell Robert to add a scene of you getting a pen stabbed into your chest causing you to explode. Exploding Harry would have rocked. I guess that's it, I don't want to spoil the film. It was fun seeing you on screen again, Titanic was too cool.

Ok folks, listen I was not in TITANIC, that was another big redheaded guy. I didn't do that scene. Wish I had, it would have been way cool, but it didn't happen. Let's get more reviews on THE FACULTY, that focus less on me, but more on the film itself.

Seeya, Harry
