Debbie Schlussel: "Severance": Al-Qaeda's Fave Horror Movie


By Debbie Schlussel

Do Americans and Brits deserve to be dismembered, beheaded, and otherwise maimed and murdered because of "what they and their countries have done"? How about, especially if they work for arms and weapons companies and defense contractors?

If you answered, "yes," then you and the leaders of Al-Qaeda and other Islamic terrorist groups will get along famously . . . and you'll also love "Severance"--a horror movie recently released in which Brits and Americans "get theirs."

"I laughed. I cheered. I didn't cry," said film critic Osama Bin Laden of the syndicated TV show, "Bin Laden & Zawahiri at the Movies."

Well, yes, I made that up. But trust me, he only liked "Fahrenheit 9/11." He'd LOOOOVE "Severance." Check out this movie poster, which tells you exactly what happens in this sick movie. . .

While the movie started out interesting, I found it to be so disgusting, so depraved, and--most of all--so anti-Western, that I walked out with about a 1/2 hour to go onscreen.

The final straw was when a man--who wondered aloud whether the beheaded head of a person could still see its body and what was going on, once the head was completely severed--got to find out the answer to his question, for himself. We see his beheaded head rolling around and seeing his dismembered body.

Enough is enough. Some movies are just anti-American. Others are just disgustingly depraved in terms of violence and gore. This one was both.

A complete outrage, shown on the silver screens of Mark Cuban's arthouse theaters.
