Paris Hilton: Millionaire Model and really bad actress? Or is she good??
Let’s face it. Paris is Hot. Say what you want to about her - that she is a spoiled rich kid who has the world by the ass; a dumb blonde; a waste of space; untapped genius….. ok that might be a bit of a stretch, but whatever you want to say about Paris one thing remains true…. she is hot.
And insanely wealthy. What I would give just to have one day of that kind of wealth.
If I actually had the opportunity though I would probably be so dumbfounded that I would waste 22 hours of the day in a dazed stupor and the 2 hours remaining for me to enjoy the wealth would probably be spent standing in line….
So anyway, I guess you are probably asking yourself why a Blog about horror movies would have a post about Paris Hilton. Well, I will tell you.
Paris is the new B-Queen. Yup. B-Queen or Queen-B, whichever you prefer. Taking The Simple Life out of the picture, Paris owes her film reportoire to really cheesy B, ok C - film. Most of which is in the horror genre.
Although her first movie is not horror but rather “comedy,” Paris’ film debut in “Wishman” is not a favorite among viewers. Admittedly I have not seen it nor do I plan to even though I am a huge fan of comedies.
From there we try a thriller called “Sweetie Pie” - equally snuffed by fans, not even worth dwelling on, and so we’ll progress straight to Nine Lives.
Nine Lives is a wonderful C-film starring known actors Holly Hunter, Robin Wright Penn, and not so known daughter of Sidney Poitier, Sidney Tamila Poitier. You can catch it this month on FearNet. I found it rather entertaining in an “I-love-really-bad-movies” sort of way (this quirk of mine drives my hubby insane!)
Paris plays the typical token “gorgeous rich” chick and fitting for the role, she gets killed pretty quickly. I tried to notice if her acting had improved any at the point of this movie. Sadly I noticed no improvement. She’s still very much the “noob and it shows” at this stage of her career.
Several other movies and t.v. show cameos later (all of which rank horribly with the viewers) Paris ends up on House of Wax - one of my contemporary favs - and actually shows signs of progression, albeit small, in her acting ability.
In House of Wax, I actually think Paris has progressed as as actress as she demonstrates signs of competent brain activity where for but a brief moment, she gives chase to the bad guy.
Sadly, it’s not enough. Paris gets slaughtered as it would not be a cheesy B movie if she didn’t.
Ironically enough, I like Paris in these B movies. She offers the beauty and ditz needed to satisfactorily deliver such a film, but doesn’t stay alive long enough for me to want to kill her myself.
So what does the future hold for Paris, heiress to the Hilton fortune; star of “The Simple Life” and female desired by most every hot blooded hetero-male alive? Well - another cheesy B movie. And to make matters even worse in this case, it’s tagged as being a musical.
Yup - Repo! The Genetic Opera. A musical. Slated for an August ‘08 release. I guess Paris is feeling the need to combine her sensational singing success with her equally acclaimed acting abilities. Who could ask for more?
One thing you can never deny about Paris is that she is hot. The only other thing I would never deny about Paris is that B movies is where she belongs because with B movies, quality acting is optional.

Yes, Paris is filthy rich and is a horrible actor! I remember when the “Simple Life” show was playing, I watched an episode or two and hated it. I’ve also heard that her latest Hollywood movie had tanked in its first weekend. This movie is called “The Hottie and the Nottie”, which has only generated $27,696 since it was released in Feb!

Haha! I got a great laugh out of that!
I actually like Paris and think she often gets a raw deal by the media. I don’t understand all the hate–jealousy, maybe, but not the hate.
I think she should specialize in B horror movies. It complements her image pretty well..and yeah..she is hot.

Wow, if Paris Hilton is the new B-movie queen, that reaffirms my belief in not watching recent b-movies. There are too many old b-movies that deserve so much more attention than that shit.

You know, I think movies like House of Wax are a great place for Paris Hilton, because they’re, you know, terrible.

You know, I really don’t dislike B movies. But I absolutely cannot stomach Paris Sluton. I do not care to watch her at all. I feel as though she belongs in a B porn movie. Yuch! Sorry if I sound mean, don’t mean to

TOM- Thanks for the compliment! Come back anytime!
SIZZLIN- you know if I watch cheesy B movies, I must watch cheesy reality shows. Sadly I’ve seen many episodes of The Simple Life. Willingly.
ROOSTER - I like Paris too. I think tho that her blond hair and silver spoon make her an easy target for the media as she can pretty much have anything she wants. jealous? Yeh, I’m jealous.
NINJA & ENEMY - I think Paris does great as a B actress. She embodies all the characteristics and plays the part well. And tho B movies of before far exceed B movies of today, I still enjoy watching both. I guess there is no accounting for taste.
RYNE - HEY! I liked that terrible movie called House of Wax!
ETTA - you didn’t sound mean and it would be ok if you did. I want people to express their opinions even if they are not the same as mine. And I think the Paris B porn flick can be downloaded from the web……………….
Why does she not just make her own films, maybe she will live longer.
I always hate how casting directors don’t care about acting ability, but only who’s currently in the press. It doesn’t even matter where they come from. They could be a famous babykiller and casting directors would still be trying to put them in a movie.
I had a casting director friend that would drive me nuts like that. “OH! We have to get this person!” “The guy from the fishing show? You’re the reason so many movies suck.”
