Just got done posting a bunch of new reviews to the front page of this bitch, including DVD reviews for The Onion Movie: Revealing the Raw Truth and Cloverfield, and a bunch of new CD reviews including The Herbaliser, Abigail Washburn & The Sparrow Quartet and The Brakes. Yep. Oh yeah, and this was my face while I was posting them:

The Onion is my favorite source for fake news and when I found out about “The Onion Movie” I wanted to know why I hadn’t heard of it sooner. Maybe because the reviews go something like ‘it made me want to poke my eyes out’ or maybe because it went straight to DVD.

The film was created in 2003 and Fox Searchlight Pictures was planning to release it. It was originally called The Untitled Onion Movie but the directors and writer left the project. It was taken over by New Regency Productions in 2006, who hoped to bring it back to life. It took two more years to be released so I guess all anticipation was lost somewhere in those seven years. Here’s a little preview for you to make the decision if it’s worthy or not:
