July 2012 for The Butcher?

[neevebrody.livejournal.com]

Still not much in the way of news/promotion for Six Bullets/The Butcher. According to a Croatian blog, the release date could be July 2012, which is very close to the release date of Expendables 2. Apparently the production is very "green" - recycling the location of at least two other JDVD films, and recycling the film's title. There was a film called "The Butcher" starring Eric Roberts (which in a bizarre six-degrees twist also starred Robert Davi) and an Asian slasher/torture file entitled "The Butcher." (can we please go back to Six Bullets?) There's been a little criticism among JCVD fans concerning shooting at the same location, but all in all fans seem eager for the film.


Another BTS shot - the director, Ernie Barbarash, second from right and Brad Krevoy, Producer. Joe looks a little whumped there.



Joe told the story of the crew using real explosives...




This location also used in "Assassination Games"

Six Bullets would at least have the advantage of being a more original name... *sigh*

The Butcher is terrible name. It doesn't make me think of action at all. More like a thriller about a crazed serial killer, or a slasher movie, ot a quirky indie flick.

Netflix lists it as Six Bullets, but I'm not sure how it got there.

Meh, Joe said in Malmo (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_0_31TQgO30)that they kill half the population of Moldova... The Butcher is pretty accurate then *snorts*

But Six Bullets sounds so much better... IMDB still has it as Six Bullets as well. It also says that the release is in July.

"The Butcher" sounds like a D-class horror film to me.... I'd rather they named it Six Bullets eventually....

Hm.... It will be just another JCVD style action film. Nothing too spectacular nor exceptionally bad either. For sure it won't give a solid push to Joe's career. Just another production not really noticed by anybody truly influential in the show business.

But in all fairness, nothing can be worse than the mega crappy CoP.... ;)

I hope we get LOTS of our favourite eye candy!

Probably LOTS of whumped eye candy :)

Hey, I come from a long line of pyromaniacs, and I'd be interested in watching just for the explosions, knowing that they're 'real.'

My thought about the name 'Six Bullets:' It sounds better up front, but will it have some actual significance to the story, or is it just some familiar-sounding macho catch-phrase that's no more applicable to the plot than The Butcher? Should be interesting to see how it plays out. Joe certainly makes it sound like it'll be fun to watch.

A little whumped and with his gorgeous fake tattoo :)
