i remember seeing In The Mouth Of Madness in the newspaper of the movie section years back.

theres a wicked new LL Cool J movie called Mind Hunters dat was sopposed to be in theaters but i thnk its comin to video, looks awesome....christian slater and val kilmer r in it too but i dont think they have big roles compared to LL...especially seeing how they say slaters character is dead in da preview

Bound and Donnie Darko both were in theatres, they were in limited release.  That would be a shame if that Mind Hunters movies is going STV, I saw a preview of that and it looks dope as fuck.
