Tom Sizemore Thriller Is the Biggest Flop of 2006 - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

HOLLYWOOD - The New Year hasn't started well for troubled actor Tom Sizemore--his latest movie, Zyzzyx Road, has just been hailed the biggest flop of 2006.
In the final box office figures for the past year, the thriller earned just $30 at the U.S. box office.

The film, which also stars Katherine Heigl, only opened in Dallas, where it earned $20 in its opening weekend and a further $10 the following week.

Sizemore is hoping to have more luck with his new reality TV series, Shooting Sizemore, which features home videos of the Black Hawk Down star shooting heroin at the height of his drug abuse problems. The series debuted last night.

DEAD AHEAD is right!

I seen his reality show last night. I wonder how much of that was acting and how much was real?

I do feel for the guy, I feel for anyone who is fighting drug/alcohol addiction. I hope he conquers this addiction and know that his life CAN BE BETTER without it.

Brian, is that correct, $30 (thirty) dollars is what the movie grossed?????

According to my Roommate, it's not out on DVD yet.

The IMDB lists this film as being made in 2005, which means it sat around for a while before finally getting a really really small release in Dallas. I bet the writer/director John Penney is from Dallas.

That's okay, I'm sure it will be out on DVD soon.

I'll wait.

Why did it only open in Dallas? IMO, I think that sucks most for Katherine Heigl. She's one of the biggest it girls right now. Thank God she has Grey's Anatomy to boost her up.

Luckily she made this stinker before Grey's anatomy took off. I'm sure she probably wants to leave this flick off her resume now.

I never even seen the trailer for this movie, talk about no marketing for a movie.
