    Just heard from Anchor Bay Films that the movie will be released in Texas this Friday.

    Rented this movie from RedBox. I want my $ back haha. I live right down the road from the fields and used to take girls there in high school to scared them before they turned it into a neighborhood. We onetime accidentally ditched my friends car right in front of the creepy house and the owner opened the door and looked through the screen door. I almost **** myself.

    Movie was terrible. Apparently my house is in the middle of swamp lands and all my neighbors have Louisiana accents? Apparently there is a prostitution ring in Texas City... Although the houses looked straight out of Deats road in Dickinson and San Leon.

    I'm curious if they researched the subject at all. I know it was just inspired by the real events but they didn't even get the victim profile correct. If I remember they were all around 20 with blondish/brown hair. Usually looked like some celeb? They didn't follow that at all.

    Yeah, we almost rented this from On Demand this past weekend, but after watching the preview we both rolled our eyes. No thanks.

    I like how the pimp kills a cop in broad daylight and is able to go park under a bridge and shoot his partner.... I guess we don't have helicopters or more than one cop on duty in Galveston County.

    Was it as bad as the HBO movie about the.Cheerleading Killing Mom from Channelview staring Holly Hunter? I knew people that knew the real mom and the Grandys country cooking they met at to plan the killing was like walking distance from my house

    Never seen it, but this movie is pretty much watching Spacejam thinking it was about Jordans retirement.

    I went to a tailgate at a Texans game a few years ago and she was there. She is friends with a good friend of mine's parents. She was a little too cozy with my ex-wife, so that was really the beginning of the end. :)

    I found an old digital camera I thought she took and was going through the pictures. Discovered a self-portrait of the two of them.

    Condolences. If they did let him out of prison, you'd have my full approval in doing whatever you wished to do to him.

    Can you tell us a bit about the trial and the evidence that might have been presented and never came out in the media? I think he was a serial killer/ rapist and wondered if that came out at all in the trial.

    I was home last weekend, so I took my girlfriend to the fields ha. If you walk straight back, the cross will be about 30 feet to your right, you'll approach a place where a group of trees make a fork. If you look in between the trees there is a big sack that looks like there could be a body in it. Totally made her think we found a new body ;).

    Reading Kathryn Casey's book Deliver Us. Just started. It's about the killing fields. I was looking it up after hearing a song called "Nowhere, Texas" by City and Colour, and it piquing my interest.

    I live right next to the killing fields if not in the killing fields. It's not that bad.
