New Review – Birdemic: Shock and Terror

Birdemic (2008)

Truly, one of the worst movies I’ve ever seen. It’s so bad that I can’t believe it wasn’t made this way on purpose. Then again, you’d think that people had better things to do with their time, like, oh, I don’t know, writing reviews of bad movies.

Bonus YouTube clip for those […]

Yvette Vickers found mummified….yuch

Yup, it looks like Yvette Vickers body was found in her Hollywood apartment. She had been dead for at least a year and was found in a nice warm room with the space heater still on…you can visualize that if you want to…but I’d rather remember her as she was in the “Attack of the […]

New Review: Behemoth

Behemoth (2011)

Thanks to Sean for this guest review. Yes, Behemoth! Something about some backpackers, a mountain, a rubber monster, and well, it’s a bunch of made-for-TV cheese for you to enjoy.

New Review: Unknown World

Unknown World (1951)

I now submit for your perusal a short review of a short, somewhat dreary film: Unknown World.

It’s about some folks that bore down into the Earth to find a cool place for humans to hide in case the world gets blown up in an atomic war.

Oh, and they find […]

New Review: Barbarian Queen 2

Barbarian Queen 2: The Empress Strikes Back (1992)

Lucky you: I found an old review that fell between the cracks when I moved to the new website format…Aren’t you happy now? Enjoy this Corman production if you can.

Happy Birthday Jim Jarmusch

Another really cool movie maker. Has anybody else out there seen “Stranger Than Paradise”? Man, I LOVED that movie as a angst-ridden pseudo-existentialist teen…I really have to get around and buy that again some day.

Deep Thoughts with Jack Handy

“I bet one legend that keeps recurring throughout history, in every culture, is the story of Popeye.”

Happy Birthday David Lynch

A little belated (it was actually yesterday, January 20th), but still…thanks for some really mind-twisting movies…and thanks for warping my teenage brain with “Eraserhead”…Ha! and who could forget Dennis Hopper (R.I.P., sigh) as Frank Booth in “Blue Velvet”. I hope I’m not “Fan Boy’ing” too much here, but I really dig his movies.

Bed Bugs

I just got a spam comment from a (cough cough) “bed bug exterminator” (posted on the “The Swarm” review no less…ah, so clever). Anyway, it got me to thinking about this so called bed bug “epidemic” and my mind fills with questions:

Is it real or is it just because we have become more aware […]

Dead Malls

I’ve always had a thing for trolling around in dying malls. Having lived in Phoenix for many a’year I had the definite pleasure of seeing not a few once proud consumer centers fade into oblivion, often with a lingering finale before the bulldozers administered the coup de grace.

Anyway, here’s a fun site with lots […]

Windows “Sticky Keys”

I hate Windows “Sticky Keys” I hate Windows “Sticky Keys” I hate Windows “Sticky Keys” I hate Windows “Sticky Keys” I hate Windows “Sticky Keys”

Did I mention that I hate Windows “Sticky Keys”?

New Review: Moon of the Wolf

Moon of the Wolf (1972)

A made-for-TV misfire that stumbles about for an hour or so before sputtering to its ridiculous ending.

Enjoy!

Speaking of endings, this wraps things up for 2010…I hope everybody had a great year and enjoyed the quality entertainment offered on these hallowed pages! See you next year!

[…]

New Review: Lost in Space

Thanks to Karl Hoegle for this nifty guest review of a movie so bad, so limp, and so dull that not even Gary Oldman could save it.

Lost in Space (1998)

And the critics rave:

– “There are so many contradictions and badly-thought out ideas surrounding that, it could physically injure you if you […]

Is it me, or does the new IMDB format suck?

Why did they get rid of the sidebar? What’s with this ugly layout….not to mention all of the apps that have to be re-written in order to parse the new html.

Ack.

There, I feel better.

So long, Leslie

Yes, we all know Leslie Nielsen passed away this week. Very sad to see him go. Damn. I’ll never forget the first time I was re-watching Forbidden Planet and realized that the ship’s captain was “the same guy who plays Frank Drebin in ‘The Naked Gun’” Funny how he’s most remembered for that then Commander […]

Ash & The Necronomicons

I wouldn’t have believed it if I hadn’t been asked to check it out…yes, a Evil Dead inspired band, Ash & The Necronomicons! How cool is that! 🙂

Check out the site and push some traffic their way if you want…I gotta admit, this was a pretty cool idea.

An aspiring bad-film writer needs your feedback

Well, it looks like a new generation of bad-film makers is ready to unleash their wares upon the world.

T.J. Boone asked me to post a link to his newest bad-movie script. Feel free to check it out and give him (assuming he’s a him…Sorry if she’s a she) feedback at the bottom of the […]

New Review: Kong Island

A confused picture originally released as ‘King of Kong Island’…but since there’s no king, no kong, and no island they removed a few words from the title shot and hoped for the best…but it didn’t help. It’s a movie about a guy trying to take over the world with $300,000 and 2 radio-controlled gorillas. Yeah, […]

Friday mad bit for you

Have a good weekend!

Where is this sample from…

Just got an email from a guy wondering if anybody could ID the movie that this sample is from…

The line is quite short, basically just “heh heh…destroy!” and occurs at about the 1:13 mark of this video.

I thought it sounded like the computer at the end of “Cosmos: War of the Planets”, but […]
