While we all wait with varying levels of interest for the movie adaptation of Seth Grahame-Smith's Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, it may interest you to know there's more than one president-as-asskicker-of-the-supernatural movie on the way. Above is the trailer for FDR, American Badass, where the 32nd President of the United States gets in his souped-up, weaponized wheelchair and takes on werewolf Hitler, Mussolini and Hirohito, and, well... uses a lot of profanity. It looks low-budget as shit, but somehow it's got both Barry Bostwick as FDR and Ray Wise as General MacArthur, and it looks as fabulous as it is wrong, and it looks very, very wrong. If nothing else, it will be the finest movie where FDR screams "SHIT GOBLINS!" ever made. (Via Bloody-Disgusting)

The worst part is I'm probably going to have to wait for this to come out on Netflix because the doucherockets who run my local theater will most likely think I want to see some P.O.S. starring Ryan F'ing Gosling.
I still am hoping for Rob Zombie's Shewolves of the SS trailer from Grindhouse to be adapted to a feature length film...but only if Nic Cage is Fu Manchu
I'd pay to watch this instead of the Beverly Hillbillies porn parody that was just inflicted on me.
OMG!!!! That looks sooooooooooooooooo fucking good!!!!!!!
Put me down for a Blu Ray and I don't care how much it costs!!!!
I don't know why, but I feel like this movie needs Robert Picardo. To be fair, I think most movies could be improved by some Robert Picardo.
This and Pizza Boomerang are the two most beautiful and greatest pieces of entertainment I have lay eyes upon this month.
It is funny, though it doesn't seem too far off. The real FDR seemed enough of a charismatic douche bag that he had the attitude and character of a badass motherfucker, all he needed was the tooled up wheelchair.
"You've got the Polio, Frank.""...Does my cock still work?"
That part made me laugh. The rest...not so much.
Apparently it also features Kevin Sorbo as Abraham Lincoln: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt18.... I have a good feeling about this.
So polio was actually transmitted through werewolf bites? Of course! It makes perfect sense!
I don't think it's humanly possible for one movie to fully capture the memetic badassness that is Theodore Roosevelt.
Why don't you guys go enjoy some more South Park episodes, because you clearly can't handle the truth that History Channel is putting out there. ;)
There's really no reason not to - at least Werewolf Hitler is more historically accurate than Ancient Aliens.
I think the first episode in the series is how the Werewolf Nazi regime is tied to Ancient Aliens, and to be perfectly honest that actually sounds like a thing.
It all makes sense now! Werewolves are from the moon, and Nazis were bitten by werewolves when they built their secret moonbase!
I saw some pretty good character actors in there. I gotta say, this looks like the "low-budget as shit" is intentional. Along the same lines as Alien Trespass from a few years ago. If so, could be some great fun. Either way... Barry Bostwick and Ray Wise!
I'm so proud of Jesse! To think it was only some short years ago I was forcing him to code HTML for women's interest websites...
