MICHAEL MADSEN IS, UH, …MAD

Protect your ears, little girl!

According to the Sun, Reservoir Dogs actor and star of FilmDrunk Poetry Slam Michael Madsen was taken to a hospital after "going berserk" at a London Hotel.

It is understood he checked in to the hotel on Saturday with a woman he described as his wife and five-year-old daughter.

Holy shit, he married his daughter?  No wonder he’s having a breakdown.

A source told The Sun: “He was apparently totally out of it when he turned up. Then on Sunday afternoon there was a massive disturbance in his room.
“A guest complained that all hell was breaking lose [Sic]. There was a lot of screaming and shouting and staff called the police. He had a furious row with his woman companion and it was feared they might hurt each other. An ambulance was called because of concerns for his mental health.
“Madsen looked wild-eyed and had lost the plot. He was not violent, but there were serious concerns about his behaviour.” [Source]

Hypothetically speaking, if he had hit his wife, it probably would’ve been because he loved her so much, right?  I mean, why couldn’t she understand that?  GRR, TELLYOURFRIENDSYOUFELL!   -Thanks to Robo for the tip

MORE PALAHNIUK-ERY

05.20.08 Written by Vince Mancini

The Twilight Bone, the third and hopefully final viral marketing porn spoof trailer for Snuff is online now.  The book hits stores today, and it’s probably going to sell a million copies.  Why?  Because they took the time to make fake movie trailers for a book.  In other news, Michael Madsen’s books of poetry now come with phlegm-filled handkerchiefs signed by the author’s assistant.

Other Palahniuk movie news: Choke release date has been bumped to September. 

Editor’s note: When I used the word "flow-etry" in that original Michael Madsen post, I had no idea it was an actual group.

ONLY MOVIE IN NORWAY HAS A TRAILER

05.19.08 Written by Vince Mancini

The subtitled trailer for Reprise (opened May 16th in the U.S.) is after the jump.  Collider has some bonus clips and had this to say:

"In its native Norway, the film won Best Picture, Best Director and Best Screenplay at the national film awards."

It behooves me to mention there was only one film made in Norway that year.  It still lost for Best Cinematography.

Reprise follows two young, ambitious writers as one them toils in obscurity and the other becomes famous but loses his mind.  So it’s like the career arc of siblings Michael Madsen and Virginia Madsen, but in Norwegian. – RoboPanda

‘VICE’ TRAILER AS UNIQUE AS IT SOUNDS

04.10.08 Written by Vince Mancini

This is the trailer for Vice, starring Michael Madsen, a movie that’s impressive in its total generic-ness.

Let’s see: looking hard-boiled in a leather jacket during a rain storm under a full moon, the anti-hero having an epiphany while staring at a crucifix in a church… what other clichés can we stuff in there? *checks IMDB*  Ooh, characters named Walker, Sampson, and TJ – well done, sirs.  Oh well, if nothing else, I’m sure it’ll be great material for Madsen’s next book of poems.

Once I was in a movie
Starring ‘longside Daryl Hannah
Frontwards and backwards, her last name’s the same
That’s called a Palindrome!
I nearly exclaimed
And I said, I’m Michael Madsen,
M-squared is my rap name.

ASIA ARGENTO IS STILL SLUTTY AND WEIRD

Boarding Gate stars Asia Argento and Michael Madsen and opens in limited release March 21st.

Sandra (Argento) has left a life of prostitution behind, but her past haunts her when an old lover (Michael Madsen) returns. Their tryst doesn’t turn out as either had imagined, and Sandra is forced to escape to Hong Kong. But a change of scenery doesn’t reduce the danger in her life, and her new friends aren’t what they seem.

Pssh, more like Bore-ding Gate.  Anyway, Asia Argento is hot and everything, and she almost has a tattoo on her vagina so that’s cool, but she also reminds me of Peyton from Rock of Love with Bret Michaels, and that’s just creepy.  Confusing for my penis, to say the least.
