Based on a famous German comic book character "Das kleine Arschloch"/"The Little Asshole" by Walter Moers. This movie is politically incorrect to the extreme. I like it. I enjoy this one a lot more than its sequel. Mainly because "Das kleine Arschloch" is the main character in this one and "Der alte Sack" voice by Helge Schneider has only a minor role. A lot of the enjoyment I also get from the music. Ilona Schulz did a great job as the voice of "Das kleine Arschloch". She really makes the character work.

Plot:
From Donald P. Borchers comes the resurrection of the most unholy shocker of all: It's 1975 and a young married couple - Vietnam vet Burt (David Anders of "Alias" and "Heroes") and preacher's daughter Vicki (Kandyse McClure of "Battlestar Galactica") - are driving cross-country straight into the heartland of Hell. Here in Gatlin, Nebraska, the town's bloodthirsty children - led by the boy preacher Isaac and his teen enforcer Malachai - have slaughtered all adults by command of He Who Walks Behind The Rows. Now two new Outlanders have arrived...and The Time Of Sacrifice is at hand. Preston Bailey (The Crazies and "Dexter") and Daniel Newman co-star in this brutal and chilling re-imagining of Stephen King's infamous tale, featuring graphic footage not seen in the television broadcast.



Extras:

• None

I found this to be an interesting and enjoyable remake. It is one that was done by the SyFy Channel. So it is a TV Movie... though as they have done with other of their films this has extra scenes giving us a little more gore as well as a little nudity in the blu-ray release. In this one Preston Bailey plays Issac. If you are a Dexter fan that name may sound familiar... he played Cody... Rita's son.

They changed enough in this one to make it worth watching without it feeling too rehashed... but left enough of it the same to show homage to the original. I was sorry to see that in this one we didin't see the kids taken over the town like in the original. In this one when the couple arrives the town has already been taken over... actually showed that it was taken over quite a while before.

Over-all this film is worth the time put in to watch it. While I would say I prefer the orginal... I can see myself watching this one again as well.

Charmed Marathon, a review by addicted2dvd

1. Valhalley Of The Dolls
Paige tried to cure Piper's memory loss, but her spell goes amiss and Paige suffers total amnesia. Needing Leo's help, Phoebe and Paige discover that he is being he;d captive by warrior-maidens on the island of Valhalla.

My Thoughts:
I loved this episode.... what a way to start off a season! Like I said before.... I like it when the sisters get turned into things, and this is no exception... especially considering how gorgeous the ladies looked in their Valkyries outfits. Besides they hot looking women... this was a really good and strong episode. It did a wonderful job setting up the season. This would have to rank as one of my favorite episodes... of the season... and of the entire series.

2. Forget Me...Not
When a child inadvertently brings a dragon to life, the Cleaners spring into action to protect the magic from being exposed. The Charmed Ones take on the Cleaners in order to protect the child.

My Thoughts:
This is a good episode. A little on the standard side... but was worth the time put into it. But there really wasn't anything really special about this one at all. And the whole thing about the cleaners... it just seems a little odd that we are into the 6th season and are now just hearing of them. If they existed and was so quick to jump in here... where were they when they were exposed and we lost Prue?

3. Power Of Three Blondes
When The Charmed Ones' identities are magically stolen by three evil sisters, they must outsmart the sinister trio to get their lives back.

My Thoughts:
While not a bad episode... I did find this episode to be a little to silly for my taste. I mean yes it did feel like it was on purpose... but those 3 blondes just couldn't act well enough to fit in with the series. They just wasn't believable. The whole episode was like silliness on overdrive here. So nope... it just didn't do it for me.
