Christian groups call for movie boycott

[somerfrost]

A number of Christian groups are upset over the release of the re-made slasher film, Black Christmas on Christmas day and are calling for a boycott! The film studio has to be overjoyed...this remake figured to struggle at the box office and rightfully so...the original was terrible and remakes never seem to improve a product. My only interest is that Michelle T (Dawn from Buffy) has a major role...she's an excellent young actress but won't exactly advance her career with this role...nonetheless, work is work! Anyway, the spokespeople for various Christian groups feel it's anti-Christian and warn folks not to let their kids see it! I find that amusing since it's an "R" rated movie but anyway...where are these folks with their "sensitivity" when witches are presented as ugly hags with long noses having a wart on the end and riding broomsticks, eating babies and worshiping the devil?? Oh well..it's all a matter of who's ox is being gored! Anyway...this alone is certain to double the opening week's box receipts for the movie...
