I could tell you why Boondock Saints sucks till I’m blue in the face, but you can’t deny that even 10 years later the film has one of the most rabid cult followings in all of film fandom (Oh my God, bro, Irish dudes kill bad guys and then pray? It’s like the War and Peace of comically self-important Punisher ripoffs!). The long-gestating sequel, Boondocks Saints II: All Saints Day, will supposedly have a theatrical release November 1st (I’ll believe it when I see it), and writer/director Troy Duffy premiered the trailer at Comic-Con over the weekend. Shortly afterwards, /Film was able to capture some reaction footage of the rare species known as the Boondock Saint fanatic in their natural habitat (the state of irrational excitement). I could ridicule them for their crunchy hair and abundance of man-jewelry, but I sort of respect their willingness to let their freak flags fly. They’re like the film version of Juggalos. Duffalos, say.
PS – Anyone else find it weird that the white-looking dude is named Javier and the Latin-looking one is named Brian Sawyer? [more on the film over at /Film]


Yet “Poondong Taints” gets no play.
That’s no fair of me to judge these fags. I’ve never seen the movie.
Hey man don’t hate on Juggalos… someone has to pump my gas
It’s not about the potato famine, right?
According to somebody I know who knows somebody who was there (look at how well-connected I am) the Boondock Saints fanatics somehow managed to be even more annoying in person than the Twitards.
I like the part where the Irish guy gets drunk and beats his wife.
*places notecard back in rolodex of stereotype jokes*
I bet all these guys in one theater creates one new Axe Body Spray scent.
“Sorry kid, but you’re going to have to remove that loud-ass shirt in order to see this movie.”
Send them all back, I say. The filthy Irish retches should continue their ways of swindling, drinking, and fighting in their own country. Don’t these people have cars to explode or something?
Somewhere right now Sam L Jackson is yelling “mothafucka” at his screen seeing that someone ripped off his “shoot guys, pray” role in Pulp Fiction.
I’ve just been advised that quoting bibles verses isnt really praying. Who knew folks on IRC know their ecumenical differences.
Did Javier stop at the Sexman teeth booth?
Speaking of Juggalos, tell me you’ve all seen this:
2009 Gathering of the Juggalos Infomercial

It left me speechless. If you must, skip the first half to get to the second half. It’s the best.
It’s like Bonnaroo, but with white trash instead of just trash.
