Howard the Duck

Howard the Duck

1986 2.1/10

An absolute King-level of cocaine must have been consumed in order to get this movie made because someone, at some point, thought Anthropomorphic Duck Titties was a banging inclusion to the script (and then filmed it)!

Avenging Angel

Avenging Angel

1985 6.9/10

Molly returns to the streets of Hollywood to find REVENGE. . . And reconnect with some old friends. The mild success of Angel prompted the studio to pursue a sequel, but the original actress found a way to price herself out of the role. The producers then found a suitable replace...

Jason X

Jason X

2001 9.0/10

After getting too serious and mystical in Jason Goes to Hell, Jason gets reinvented as something over the top, funny, and just as deadly in this entry. A few nods to classic kills, a very very good new kill right off the bat, and an overall love of the franchise and willingness t...

Pee-wee's Big Adventure

This was one of those movies EVERYONE had watched growing up. EVERYONE knew about the Large Marge scene. Everyone learned about the Alamo because of this movie. EVERYONE recognized the big dumb dinosaurs in The Wizard because of this movie. Looking back, it's absolutely wild that...

Sleepaway Camp

Sleepaway Camp

1983 6.9/10

Stilted dialogue, uncomfortable oddly acted flashbacks, and generally inconsistent, the film finds its stride about 3/4 of the way in and picks up steam like a runaway train. Much has been said about the final scene, chilling, confusing, unreal, and haunting, it ironically works...

1993 5.8/10

Billy Blanks tries to sell you on a line of martial arts gear by being in a bad Terminator knockoff.

Leonard Part 6

1987 0.2/10

This isn't the worst thing Cosby's ever done, but it sure is the most uninteresting he's ever been in front of a camera.

Ghostbusters II

Ghostbusters II

1989 5.2/10

With the success of the animated show (no, not the one with the gorilla), the subversive and dark mystique of the original film gave way to a more kid friendly and goofy sequel -- one where a NES Advantage control deck is able to pilot the Statue of Liberty, animated by some empa...

Cyborg

Cyborg

1989 6.7/10

Fresh off of the success of Bloodsport, Van Damme raids the wardrobe closet of failed He-Man and Spider-Man films to deliver a post-apocalyptic action film stuffed with characters named after rock instruments.

Deadly Friend

Deadly Friend

1986 6.2/10

Boy meets girl, boy makes robot, boy loses robot and girl and decides to put a brain chip in girl's head, turning her into a psycho killer. Tale as old as time, I reckon. The real horror is Wes Craven opting to make this movie a Pg-13 thriller, and the studio flipping out about n...

Angel

Angel

1984 8.9/10

This LAsploitation film aims for the fences and delivers. More than the grindhouse quality story and shoestring budget, Angel offers an interesting snapshot of 80s Hollywood as interpreted by the 70s-- a place where former Cowboys can sling stories of their heyday and panhandle f...

The Guyver

The Guyver

1991 2.3/10

This attempt to being the ultraviolet anime to US shores turned the scary villains into dopey Muppets. An amazing mess of an adaptation, it's sequel (Guyver 2: Dark Hero) does a much better job with a much smaller budget.

Doctor Mordrid

1992 2.1/10

What happens when your license to adapt a famous Master of Mystic Arts expires and you can no longer use the Sorcery Supreme's mightiest weapon (name recognition)? File off anything that infringes on the IP and release your watered-down generic version. The stiry's good enough to...

Manos: The Hands of Fate

I don't know why anyone would try and watch this without the inspired MST3K commentary, because raw-dogging the original release sounds like inspired torture. Admire the grit of a director hamstrung by a camera that could only shoot 32 seconds of film. Marvel at a production sket...

TerrorVision

TerrorVision

1986 7.0/10

This film, along with its sister-production, Troll, gave rise to Full Moon Pictures. You can see some of that so bad it's good DNA and love for practical creature effects well on display here. Campy, with outrageously over the top 80s couture, a deliciously slimy monster, and jus...

Ticks

Ticks

1993 3.9/10

A merely-average creature feature made too many years after Arachnaphobia to really cash in on the scary bug thing. Alfonso Ribeiro gets to cut loose and show off his biceps, and that's about as good as it gets here.

Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky

I screened this at a work event a few years back and the manager was awestruck. "This is an effing Magnum Opus!" The only thing that would make this film more perfect would be gratuitous topless shots -- though you get plenty of shirtless muscle dudes already. Over the top gore i...

American Ninja

1985 6.5/10

Michael Dudikoff, the protagonist, was rumored to be in the running to play Spider-Man at one point. It's probably how Canon films kept him coming back to make more sequels.
