It's going to be an awful movie, but maybe it'll be fun. As long as it's a one-time thing.

(Oh, god, what if we have to worry about sequels?!)

Oh God! Hah. What if it's a huge hit and they decide to make like, 7 of them? (How many Scream movie are there?) Do I really need like, 14 hours of Raul Esparza running around with a knife in my life?

Hey, I rhymed.

YES!!!

I know I do. If anyone's going to haunt my dreams, I had better be Raul.

Part of me is like.... hey, it has to be a somewhat interesting part, right? Otherwise, why would they cast a serious actor? But I have a feeling that the pitches for these kinds of movies usually sound better than the final product.

If he was going to do horror, Raul should have done the POTO movie.

I was thinking that, too -- why would they look for a serious actor AND why would he take it? (If he is going to.) But then I keep coming back to, "but this is the guy who did Scream. And The Hills Have Eyes." And I can't get off of that.

Now that I am thinking about recent movies I've seen, Raul could have been good in the Thomas Hayden Church part in SMART PEOPLE. Quirky but appealing.

But wait - Craven also did MUSIC OF THE HEART with Meryl Streep. Huh?

He also did one of the segments of "Paris, Je T'aime" which was quite cute. But this 25/8 thing sounds like your average slasher pic though.

Why 25/8 and not 8/25? Is it set in Europe??

I have no idea if this is at all correct, but when I first looked at the title, I thought it was a play on 24/7.

I hope "Eight Days a Week" is the character's signature song that plays whenever he's going for the kill.

They should.

Raul can sing a revised version of Being Intense.

I hope that's what he sings when he's about to kill someone. Why not capitalize on his talents?

This movie would kick so much ass if we could be in charge of the script.

It would probably be better than its gonna be as is! Singing serial killers? Box office GOLD, you guys. I mean, look at Sweeney Todd. We're just throwing in some kids and a zombie, really.

Maybe one number refers to the number of potential victims in the town, the other refers to the date of his supposed demise?

It would be SO much better if he were a singing serial killer!

Strange choice of shooting locales. I grew up near New Milford - it was charming and rural then but it is pretty much urban sprawl now.

Wait, that's only like... ten songs. That's not a very long show! I know it says "complete program," but it seems a little short!
