Keddie · 14-11-2009, 01:36 AM

Release the movie!!!!

I don't want to see Chris axed to death, but I do want to see him act! He is a great comedy actor! I've known that ever since that episode of Extras

I'd also love to see him run around in boxers.

Release the movie!!!!

The film, called Slashed, was shot while the band were on tour in America but some scenes were also shot in the UK. The screenplay, written by Jed Shepherd and directed by Alexander Marks included star roles by Chris Martin (Sherbet Bones) and Jonny Buckland (Agent Ford) of Coldplay as a pair of FBI agents hired to track down a supernatural serial killer. Other star performances include that of Moby, James Nesbitt, Dave Grohl and Ash themselves.[2] The film was much hyped due to the celebrity performances but it was never generally released to the public and is currently being held in storage. Rumours circulated that certain scenes were too gory and would not be suitable for Ash's audience, but it was also said that Chris Martin vetoed its release due to scenes of him running around in his boxer shorts, covered in blood, fighting demons which may have been detrimental to his new celebrity status"

WTH?!? Who wouldn't LOVE to see that?!?

Darn, Chris. Darrnnn.

Also, here's the link
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ash_(band)

I don't think he actually said that... it doesn't have a source, last time I checked.

QUICK, SOMEONE TAKE IT DOWN WITH A CITATION NEEDED

Sherbet Bones?

Isab3lla · 14-11-2009, 09:53 PM

I've read about this and also seen the youtube clip before

Hopefully they will release it soon. Aren't Guy and Will in the movie too?

coldplayisawesome · 14-11-2009, 10:04 PM

i'm pretty sure it's just Chris and Jonny.

Empily · 15-11-2009, 01:36 AM

OMG HELL YES!!!

Any film with Chris Martin in it is bound to be amazing

But haven't they ruined the ending by telling us that Chrissy gets axed to death?

coldplayisawesome · 15-11-2009, 01:38 AM

not if that parts in the middle, they haven't.

I want to see it.

Texasluvsjonny · 16-11-2009, 02:42 PM

I have been waiting 7 years to see this. Fuck You Ash! No more teasing! Put up or shut the fuck up! RELEASE THE BLOODY FILM!

coldplayisawesome · 16-11-2009, 08:44 PM

^WHAT SHE SAID!

Empily · 16-11-2009, 08:48 PM

Everytime I read this thread title it makes me laugh

I need to see that film...

EmmaLouiseSmyth · 16-11-2009, 08:56 PM

I would love to see this film.

Jed · 22-11-2009, 03:22 PM

hi, im Jed and I wrote 'Slashed'. Seems that people have alot of questions about the movie. There is quite alot of info on Ash's wiki page but if you have anything else. then ask here and Ill try to answer! Don't forget I wrote it in 2003 so I may have forgotten a few things but I'll try.

Bit of background - I believe I was asked to write Slashed as I had previously sent Mark Hamilton of Ash, a script for a zombie film in 2002. I guess he liked it and asked me to write a 15 minute Slasher film for an extra on a DVD. Ash liked it so much, they asked me to expand it into a full movie and I had to write parts for all these stars. So I added characters and subplots all over the place. I went out to LA and met Coldplay and basically interviewed Chris for a part in the film. He had an idea that he wanted to be a Sherlock holmes type character, so thats why we came up with Sherbet Bones. Datsun Ford (Jonny) is obviously a Watson type character and perfectly backs up Chris' outstanding performance as the FBI agent that confronts the killer.

Like Tim has said in recent interviews, Chris is the best thing about it. His acting is so good and he speaks in a kind of rhyme throughout the whole thing. I wrote the majority of Chris/Jonny's part backstage in LA and on planes. I wouldnt say its the greatest thing I've ever written - if Im being honest - but Chris' acting makes it into something much better than it should be!

Also, for those that think it will never see the light of the day... you dont have long to wait....
