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 ******** parties like this around me aswell. Ridiculous this is allowed to continue to go on and a sequel is being produced.

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.

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.

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.

The movie isnt the problem. Stupid kids are.

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

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

Fixed this for you.

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

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.

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.

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.
