'On the Doll' Clip Will Make Men Cringe
Filed under: Drama, Thrillers, NSFW, Movie Marketing, Cinematical Indie, Trailers and Clips
I would have embedded the clip, but I want to make sure no children or men accidentally push play without being either of proper age or sufficiently warned. It's definitely NSFW, and the fact that it features rising star Brittany Snow (Prom Night) repeatedly punching a guy in the crotch makes it a truly uncomfortable moment for males to witness. Sure, it's got nothing on the cringe-worthy castration sequence from Hard Candy or the end of Little Children or most of Teeth or, for that matter, any number of horror films, but it's still pretty painful to watch (and listen to -- the sound effects really make it). So, click at your own risk.The clip comes from On the Doll, the feature debut of Grammy-nominated music video director Thomas Mignone (Slipknot's "Wait & Bleed"), which opens in New York June 13 and then is released on DVD and online June 17. Snow plays one of several sexual abuse victims whose stories are interwoven throughout the apparently dark and twisted film (see the R-rated trailer here). The rest of the mostly young cast includes relative unknowns Clayne Crawford (A Love Song for Bobby Long), Stephen Sowan (TV's The Riches) and Josh Janowicz (The Chumscrubber), who is best known for being the soon-to-be-ex-husband of Lost star Emilie de Ravin. Fans of the Oceans Eleven series may also recognize Eddie Jemison, who plays a teacher who's propositioned by two of his students.

Ow.
I guess I shouldn't comment that ONE blow to the sac will render you unconscious.

The clip suggested pretty strongly that the guy was dead. So now I am curious, can one die from being punched in the balls too many times and why would it kill you?
Besides thoose urgent questions, I will be skipping this film. Not being male, it will not be out of fear for my manhood but rather an ill ease feeling it gave me. Something was just not right.

What can one say about a terrible film that is positive ? ? ? The script is ridiculous and its actors produce student-level performances. The film is seriously flawed.
