One movie-goer said, "Loads of people were freaking out. I heard someone being sick behind
me. It affected most of the audience. People were walking out like zombies, white
as sheets.
Franco, who actually admitted that some viewers fainted during screen-testing, said, "It's not a horror film where the point is to gross people out. The
real amputation took over 40 minutes. Our scene is a few minutes."
127 Hours is directed by British director Danny Boyle, who is most well-known for having directed such famous films as Trainspotting, The Beach, 28 Days Later, and Slumdog Millionaire. Boyle said about the graphic amputation, "We'd all do it and if you didn't have a knife you'd chew it off.
Animals do it all the time."
127 Hours goes on general release in the United States on Friday, November 5th.
