I guessed the same thing for the Ethan Hawke movie.

And with the help from someone on dvdcollectorsonline... I already guessed The Host... so seems that one could be right what with this guess for same movie. But he guesed Final Fantasy: The Spirit Within.

It will depend if my friend looked at my online listing first... as I already have Final Fantasy: The Spirit Within as well as Resident Evil: Degeneration... though I will put in the guess for it too.

D-War or Dragon Wars would be the Korean monster film.

Thanks for the guesses... I put them through... waiting to hear back.

- completely CGI

Answer:
Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children


Regions 1, 3, 4

Clue:
"one is based on a novel by Ethan Hawke"
- he's also in it

Answer:
The Hottest State


Region 1

Released: 12/4/2007

Clue:
"one of the 2-movie releases is likely musical in parts and involves a talented palomino"

OK... if I am not mistaken... here is what I have left of the Clues.... Any help with these would be appreciated! 


"one involves a plot to kill someone to make $$ on their posterity"
- the title refers to a completely separate film directed by Sam Peckinpah



"one is set during the Mexican-American War"
- it involves Irishmen



"one is a lesson to never touch dirty money"
- the title is also a common name for a member of the Amaranthus family



"one is a rom-com made from a play and stars the original cast"
- if you added two words onto the title, you'd get the title of a book by H. G. Wells



"there is another low-budget horror as well, but it's from 2008 and is based on a comic book series"
- part of the title is a location that would describe what I live in




"TV episode release is from a show on TLC, and you wouldn't want those people in your house"
- part of the title for the 2-episode TV release was the catch phrase of the men on film duo on "In Living Color"

It was wrong Skip... but was told...

Quote:
Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia is the Peckinpah film.
So the title of the film in the box is only two words different from that film.


Here is clue with additional clue I just got...

"one involves a plot to kill someone to make $$ on their posterity"
- the title refers to a completely separate film directed by Sam Peckinpah
- the title of the film is only 2 words different from the title of the Peckinpah film it references

- has a cover that is mostly green, and given the cover I think it's a zombie flick




"TV episode release is from a show on TLC, and you wouldn't want those people in your house"
- part of the title for the 2-episode TV release was the catch phrase of the men on film duo on "In Living Color"
