Houston Teen Killed at 'Project X' Inspired Party

A spring break rave in a Houston mansion that was meant to emulate a movie turned deadly early Wednesday morning after several attendees fired guns, killing one person as police tried to break up the party.
The unidentified male victim suffered multiple gunshot wounds and died at Ben Taub General Hospital, Houston police told ABCNews.com.
The party, which attracted between 500 and 1,000 guests, was meant to copy the party thrown in "Project X".
The 2012 movie follows three high school students who throw the ultimate "anything goes" party that spirals out of control. While a damaged home and a bad hangover may be the only consequences partygoers faced in the movie, a string of copycat parties have caused over $100,000 in real damage, handfuls of arrests and the Houston fatality.
Daniel Menjivara, a 22-year-old college student, said "Project X" and the fact it was spring break were the reasons he and many others attended the Houston house party. Menjivara said he was "the exception" at the party and was surprised to find the crowd was mostly composed of teenagers.
"The house got pretty full. You could barely move around," he said.



This movie should just be banned. People are throwing retarded parties like this around me aswell. Ridiculous this is allowed to continue to go on and a sequel is being produced.

Stupid people having kids should just be banned. People are throwing retarded parties like this around me aswell. Ridiculous this is allowed to continue to go on and a sequel is being produced.
Fixed this for you.

Remember when tagging stuff with: "Kids, don't try this at home" wasn't necessary?

We weren't absolute retards back then.

Even if they do try it at home, they do so at their own risk and accountability. It isn't some movies fault.

[BraveHeartFan]

Whats funny is that people actually think these kinds of stupid parties didn't happen, and go on, all the time long before that stupid movie came out.


People are only paying attention now because that stupid movie came out but these types of dumb parties are nothing new.

[Future]

The movie - or at least what I've seen of it - is just a representation of what is already happening it's not like they did anything groundbreaking.

Saying it should be banned is the same as saying that first person shooters should be banned. Or nitro circus should be banned. In reality, people do stupid ****. Sometimes they get hurt. It's not the fault of movies or video games when that happens.

gene pool cleansing is a good thing.

The movie isnt the problem. Stupid kids are.

[Joe Rod]

I think TNA Wrestling is to blame. We should ban TNA Wrestling.

You gotta fight for your right

[zrinkill]

Teenagers are stupid ...... we know that already.

[BadWolf]

Fixed this for you.

Reminds me of that documentary they did a while back. I think it was called Idiocracy.

[Hoofbite]

Ban the movie?

You've got a lot to learn R2A.

Study hard and keep at it and you might not be offed at a copy cat party yourself.

This is not a one time thing. They should atleast block the sequel. I can see people arguing "oh this happens all the time" but it is to a different extent. Teenagers hold parties and have 200-300 people over and cause a few thousand in damages all the time, yes. This movie is influencing people to invite THOUSANDS of people over from online sources and cause hundreds of thousands in damages for no good reason at all. This is directly caused by the movie as you can find a few stories like this via google very easily.

Come on now that isn't even a good shot at me. You can easily do better.

I went to a hip-hop jam down there one time. We got there and there wasn't a person in site. Apparantly I just missed a drive-by. My grandmother lives there...alone. She's had people try to break into her house while she was there. She almost shot a person at 76 years old. That city is PUTRID.

What about all the people that do backyard wrestling and injure themselves. I guess wrestling has to be banned due to injuries.

[BraveHeartFan]

Again these types of stupid things have been going on for a long, long, long time. That movie is art that is imitating life. These parties didn't just start cropping up because of the movie they're only now starting to get more attention because of the movie and it gives people something to point at and blame for the stupid behavior of ******* kids.

Hi, it is Spring Break for a lot of schools, so naturally kids will be doing stupid things like this. It will settle back down by the end of the month.

[Joe Rod]

Come on, when have you ever seen me do anything other than poke fun at people? If I post something that peaves a person off, then they must either be a real ******r or it was purely unintentional.

Plus, your TNA obsession is funny!

[Cowboys&LakersFan]

This. We are stupid no doubt about it. We'll get smarter as we age.

Man up and get your grandmother out of the ghetto. That stuff doesn't happen in most of the city.

Should Superman movies be banned too because some kids jumped off some roofs thinking they could fly?

Dumb people do dumb things.
Dumb people are incapable of realizing that what they saw in a movie theatre was a compilation of actors making believe they are someone else.

If you start banning movies because a kid lost his life trying to recreate what he saw,you are yielding your power to a group of people who soon will tell you what is good and what is not and will eventually eliminate your freedom of choice.They will choose for you.

Be very careful.

I blame Super Mario for me running around jumping on turtles and trying to break bricks with my head.

There is a fine line here. A movie such as this has a certain realism to it that Superman could never portray. A movie that influences someone to walk into a house with a thousand people and fire a gun at random for the thrill is different than a movie that influences a 10 year old to try to fly. There is a difference. Stopping the production of a sequel is more than reasonable.

[Joshmvii]

It doesn't matter if the movie is more realistic than Superman. That's like saying they should ban Breaking Bad from television, because it's clearly going to make kids go out and cook meth, and murder people.

No, the government doesn't need to outlaw movies because someone did something stupid. People do stupid things constantly. The vast majority of people are complete idiots.

What is not realistic is your stance on this. You can't blame a movie for someone being stupid and irresponsible. It is not reasonable at all to stop production of a sequel. These people made a choice and it was a poor one. They have only themselves to blame, not some movie.

Your stance on this matter is complete bull****.

Please do everyone a favor and replace your political hobby with an Easy Bake Oven or something to that extent.

[TheDallasDon]

Wait this movie is popular? Talk about a re-wash.

Sucks for the kid.......stupid stuff happens but when a life gets taken it becomes big.
