This movie was just a release of an never-heard of personal interview, really didn't need to be a film. I liked it a lot as a hardcore nirvana fan, and that was the intended audience. It's a terrible film, but as an access to kurts brain it was great and i ate it up. I just played videogames while listening to it tho :P

How about looking at Zoe Saldana for two hours? Did that help?

2 hours of Zoe Saldana and offensive Columbian stereotypes and all we get is a barely see-through shirt and some short shorts. It wasn't worth it. And the ticket was only 5 dollars. And I didn't even pay for it.

I think Swamp Thing originated in comics in the early 70s. The movie came out in 1982. Written and directed by Wes Craven and featuring Adrienne Barbeau's body (who was, I think, married to John Carpenter at the time). Carpenter wrote 'Escape from New York' (also starring Barbeau's body) which came out in 1981.

Alan Moore was one of the British invasion of genius comic writers who did makeovers of old titles/characters from old mainstream American comics. So, yes, there's a relation. Alan Moore wrote the first many issues of the "new" Swamp Thing series (in the early 90s I think). This film is the original shit though.

Thats what i was wondering. The comic was really cool i remember, granted i only read the alan moore series. The premise doesn't sound quite so appealing without knowing alan moore is doing the story. Still gonna check it out tho

i dickride alan moore hard

From what I remember, that Swamp Thing movie was very tongue-in-cheek and campy, pretty far in tone from Alan Moore's run on the comic.
