International Guerillas Review

[@BloodrealmX]

So... I noticed at 17:08 that they make a speech mentioning "Your God" versus "our god". Salman Rushdie was raised Muslim and later became an atheist. Either his god IS your god or he doesn't have one. There was something mentioned about him having a Jewish sidekick... but that STILL means that it's the same god.

[@Bojack1135]

gotta say... at first i thought diamanda hagan was just a weirdo. but i gave her a chance and i'll be damned if i don't find her freaking awesome.

[@DiamandaHagan]

+Bojack1135 I'll let here know, she'll be delighted :)

[@Crowley9]

So the moral of the story is: Don't bother fighting for Allah since you won't be successful, and if it is a worthy cause, Allah is going to do it himself?

[@DiamandaHagan]

+Crowley9 YUP!

[@alexiaNBC]

From what I read, the Muslims themselves were divided on how to (supposedly) punish Salmon Rushdie for the book. Iran simply put a fatwa on Rushdie's head ordering anybody to kill him on sight. In contrast, the Saudis wanted him to face Islamic jurisprudence via a trial based on Sharia that would give him a chance to repent and if he refuses would decide whether to kill him or not. This is true, according to fiqh: "a person accused of an offense is to be brought to trial, confronted with his accuser, and given the opportunity to defend himself. A judge will then give a verdict and if he finds the accused guilty, pronounce sentence... Even the most rigorous and extreme of the classical jurist only require a Muslim to kill anyone who insults the Prophet in his hearing and in his presence. They say nothing about a hired killing for a reported insult in a distant country" So Pakistan's actions in the film are more on par with Iran's views than those of Saudi Arabia's.

Run With Us is such an underrated song...

[@ninyaninjabrifsanovichthes45]

"Bullets of Love" slaps ngl 19:10

[@talkinghoorse6936]

That final scene with the flying Qur'ans will forever live on in my heart.

[@prasadpawar7027]

I can confirm that International Gorillay is the most movie of all time. It has actors, a script, video and an audio.

[@NikkyKicks]

I'm fucking dying, this hilarious (and disturbing) but HILARIOUS. Like, Solomon Rushdie wrote a book and they made him look like a sociopath

[@kurtdenter1799]

The end-song from "The Raccoons" fits perfect!

[@crissayago6070]

Whenever I feel like utter garbage. I think of this film and it's utter batshit insanity

[@DiamandaHagan]

Good reaction to any movie I review really lol.

[@JeffMaziarz]

The ending reminds me of another review you did. I don't recall the name, but it involved Jesus in a diner choosing to save all but one of the people there. Basically, one guy gets to go to hell because Jesus couldn't be bothered to convince him the way he did the others. The ending to International Guerillas reminds me of that. If Allah could simply tell the author and the others (the woman who converted at the end especially, since she did convert at the end), why not choose earlier to manifest rather than now? Ah well. Vengeful rather than obvious or forthcoming, I suppose.

[@DiamandaHagan]

Jeff Maziarz The Encounter!

[@cropathfinder]

this video having so few likes is a crime against haganistan

[@theotherghostgirl337]

I’m sorry but your Salman is in another castle

[@heello2u465]

If I was rich, I'd combine Left Behind and Land Before Time. Also, there is that crazy creationist kids show I forgot the name of with a man in a dinosaur costume saying scientist are wrong about evolution.

[@smjaiteh]

Isn't that song around the 23 minute mark from The Raccoons cartoon!?

[@DiamandaHagan]

Yuup.

[@smjaiteh]

DiamandaHagan That's such a strange reference to make in this.

[@talharizvi2780]

Watching this on New Year's Eve. Absolutely hilarious.

[@DiamandaHagan]

Excellent new tradition!

[@talharizvi2780]

@@DiamandaHagan actually this is the first time I came across your channel. Loved it.

[@RaccoonRevolution]

Still waiting for a Six: The Mark Unleashed review.

[@MsDjessa]

6:59 Oh you mean how no one can stop the incredibly courageous Iranian women to demonstrate and remove their veils? 27:30 So the "bad" guys removed their masks so the "good" guys WOULDN'T kill everyone in the world. That's what it seems like.

[@haribahadur5607]

There are more such extreme religious movies made by Pakistanis. Sadly some of them don’t have subtitles. You will have to watch them of only if you know Urdu or Punjabi.

[@randypanthegoatboy7114]

It occurs to me, a spoof of this movie could be done with DC fans going after Zack Snyder.

[@carribob1992]

15:26 I can't anything funny to say about this scene. It visually does it for me.

[@sachaput]

First of this film from the God Awful Movie guys. This is brilliant. Thanks for the review.

[@scitechian]

I love it. The motivation is that the Sunnis and Shi'ites and Taliban have all agreed to stop wishing utter annihilation upon each other in order to actually achieve their stated goals: a New World Order of Islam. That's about as silly as making a horror movie about the Final Crusade being upon us because the British Protestants and the Irish Catholics finally agreed to stop hating each other and take over the world.

[@ninyaninjabrifsanovichthes45]

I can attest to the fact that will never happen. Irish and British absolutely despise each other.

[@MsDjessa]

10:48 Yeah I honestly wouldn't blame him if he had the urge to torture those who have forced him into hiding. Even if he did in in practice he would still be less horrible than those who want to murder someone because of a book.

[@VelvetCondoms]

Is it wrong that the vogue gag is more entertaining than the movie concept?

[@raymoreclef]

I think its funny @DiamandaHagan, I can tell all of these last 3 or 4 reviews are the same time frame because I can hear the cheep of the smoke alarm in each of them, apparently you are just as lazy as I am to putting in new batteries in them. I have never watched your stuff still I saw a co-review recently, and I wanted to watch them all chronologically. So this was just a thought I had. I think they are great, and the character you've made is much better then the average reviewer.

[@DiamandaHagan]

The smoke alarm lasts longer than 4 eps :(. It wasnt my place and they had trouble fixing that for aggggges.

[@raymoreclef]

To be fair, I honestly didn't think you would answer this since the video was so long ago. That really, truly, means a lot to me! You are my favorite reviewer currently.

[@JadeCryptOfWonders]

Came here because Salman Rushdie got stabbed, but got reminded about how nuts this movie gets.

[@dannytheman1313]

I demand a kickstarter where Diamanda remakes this movie!

[@silkychan6099]

My fav review of a batshit crazy movie.

[@pakanime1112]

Recommend to watch Hijrat old Pakistani film based on the Soviet Afghan War

[@A_QuestioningSoul]

It ain't Batu Batu's sister, but of the commander JC

[@HerrScheijde]

Islam forbids depictions of Allah, so doesn't that make the end blasphemous

[@theunbearablejuan]

Why are you expecting consistency from this film?!

[@fzysknr]

I guess if there's no visual appearance, it might not count as a "depiction"?

[@laurajanelukejones5910]

I've never heard of Brigham City but I'll definitely check it out, heh..being an ex-Mormon and all. Although there are a ton of bad Mormon movies I grew up with that you should check out. Some animated Book of Mormon stuff and other weird live action movies with spiritual messages. Pretty cringe worthy

[@JeffMaziarz]

There are giant frogs and lesbians aplenty in the Philippines? Clearly I need to vacation with my husband once we get passports.

[@DiamandaHagan]

+Jeff Maziarz Thats a Zszsa Zaturrnah reference and Im currently editing my review of that film :)

[@JeffMaziarz]

Awesome! I'm looking forward to it.

[@PaulTheSkeptic]

+Jeff Maziarz Either you're using another person's account or you're married to another man. Why would a gay guy be so excited about lesbians? Or giant frogs for that matter?

[@DiamandaHagan]

+Paul TheSkeptic If a facepainted weirdo on the net told me a movie included gay guys and giant frogs Id want to know more.

[@JeffMaziarz]

Paul TheSkeptic any place filled with lesbians is bound to be fabulous and a great vacation spot. It really doesn't matter that my husband and I are both male. Our vacations are generally not about the booty call. I've always liked frogs and toads. Going someplace with giant ones would be awesome. I'm sure my husband would agree as long the frogs in question weren't being fed the tourists. DiamandaHagan, you are my hero.

[@tyroneshuze7888]

We`re Batmen.

[@petersmith9633]

The only thing that made this movie worse is the nearly 3 hour run time.

[@Bismuth83X]

I can't get enough of that random gratuitous English...

[@Yukinoomoni]

THE RACCOONS

[@tyroneshuze7888]

Koyla counts as a hindu movie.It`s wonderfully batshit insane. It`s an epic action musical horror romance about a villain who I swear is the real inspiration for Bill in the Kill Bill movies. It also features ads for Copal Gold tobacco worked into the character`s dialogue as well as all over the set and the awesome soundtrack features a number where the heroine and the village steal pot candy and sing a song praising Ram, as well as another song that rips off Vangelis.

[@haribahadur5607]

It’s not a extreme religious Hindu Movie. I don’t think any extreme Hindu religious movies have been made. If you know any movies then please do recommend them.

[@ozz530]

It's a cult classic...only to be watched with some grade A ganja....

[@seanbamburg1]

LMAO I love these reviews! And I also fucking hate The new star treks!

[@talkinghoorse6936]

+seanbamburg1 are you saying you haven't accepted the lens flares as your one true lord and savior?! BLASPHEMY!

[@PaulTheSkeptic]

I love how they all have mustaches that they obviously think are cool but they really just all look like Ron Jeremy. And, I love how this was made in 1990 and everything they wear is like 10 years out of date. That must mean that they're just now getting grunge. "Check it out Abdul. They're called Nirvana." I love how it looks like it was shot like 5 minutes after cameras were invented. Muslims are fucked up dude. The scathing atheist's review of this was way funnier. Really. So funny. Go listen. I can't express how funny it was, really. Seriously, it was episode 114. Here's a link scathingatheist.com/podcast/ I laughed so hard I almost crashed my truck.

[@DiamandaHagan]

+Paul TheSkeptic When I have time I'll check out the podcast but coming in to tell me thatsomeone else did the same thing so much better than me is a little rude, heh. Probably true but rude:P

[@PaulTheSkeptic]

DiamandaHagan Well, the comment was meant for everyone. I guess I could've worded it differently. Sorry. I don't know if I'd call it better, just funny as hell. They do a lot of movie reviews but that one in particular was just so funny to me. I was like crying laughing. XD

[@DiamandaHagan]
