Stuff Stephanie in the Incinerator - Boot Betty in the Bunsen Burner 1:22:07

3d ago1:22:07

1:22:07

Did Stephanie ever have to worry about the incinerator? "Stuff Stephanie in the Incinerator" is a delightful surprise that defies all expectations. As someone who was anticipating the typical over-the-top antics synonymous with Troma releases, I was completely taken aback by the film's unique charm. This movie is not just another exploitative romp;…

Madame Web - Failed to predict my devastating boredom 1:56:34

17d ago1:56:34

1:56:34

Look into your future and see if you're gonna be in any other movies. Looks bleak! "Madame Web" is a masterclass in how not to make a superhero movie or really any movie for that matter. From start to finish, it's a torturous slog through wooden acting, a plot riddled with more holes than Swiss cheese, and an antagonist so one-dimensional and impla…

Atlas - Shrug 1:56:27

23d ago1:56:27

1:56:27

Thrill as J-Lo complains in a chair in front of green screen for 45 minutes. That butt, tho.... "Atlas," starring Jennifer Lopez, aims to be a thrilling sci-fi adventure but ultimately lands in the realm of forgettable mediocrity. The plot, which revolves around a dystopian future and a battle for humanity's survival, is riddled with flaws and hole…

Robot Jox - This Jox's for you 1:40:36

1M ago1:40:36

1:40:36

Less people get sat on by robots in war, I guess. So Robot Jox is a conglomeration of many other staples in 1989. You've got a post-apocalyptic setting thanks to the Cold War. You've got a sports related global event ala Rollerball, Deathrace 2000, Running Man, et. al. And you've got robots fighting ala Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots. Ok, maybe the last …

Highlander: The Final Dimension - The Nonsense Returns 1:41:13

2M ago1:41:13

1:41:13

The Highlander theatrical cannon comes to a close...by making all the same mistakes as the first two movies and we can't thank them enough for it. Highlander: Final Dimensions is a rollercoaster of absurdity that somehow manages to entertain despite its sheer ridiculousness.

2M ago1:37:04

1:37:04

Are you enough of a tough guy verbally to handle how much of a tough guy everyone is in this movie when even the ladies are tough guys? No chance. "The Rage" is a rollercoaster of a movie, and not necessarily in a good way. Strap in for some truly crazy stunts that will have you gripping the edge of your seat... or maybe just scratching your head i…

Rollerball - Could be the worst movie of all time 1:55:51

3M ago1:55:51

1:55:51

Its bad. I mean, so, so, so very bad. Like "worst movie of all time discussion" bad. "Rollerball" (2002) is a cinematic catastrophe of epic proportions. This abomination of a film is a perfect storm of incompetence, delivering an experience so profoundly dreadful that it defies all reason and logic. From its mind-numbingly idiotic plot to its nause…

Roadhouse (2024) - Dalton should've packed more shirts 1:56:32

3M ago1:56:32

1:56:32

Dalton hasn't calmed down much in 35 years but he's gotten a lot more polite when he's punching your nose into your face. "Roadhouse" (2024) starring Jake Gyllenhaal offers a lukewarm viewing experience that leaves much to be desired. While the action direction from Doug Liman is undeniably thrilling, it's unfortunately overshadowed by a frustratin…

Riding the Bus with my Sister - Wait, isn't this just a Hallmark movie? 1:20:22

3M ago1:20:22

1:20:22

Rosie O'Donnell does the thing Robert Downey Jr. said never to do and earns all of the internet's hatred...but is it deserved? "Riding the Bus with My Sister" is a film that falls squarely in the realm of made-for-TV movies, a genre often associated with mediocrity. Yet, within this sea of forgettable productions, this 2005 offering manages to stan…

Tiptoes - Nobody puts Oldman in the sofa, baby 1:31:51

3M ago1:31:51

1:31:51

A cavalcade of terrible decisions that 3 Oscar winners and an Emmy winner decided was good for them, gave us a movie that's good for us but no one else. "Tiptoes" is a cinematic trainwreck that defies all expectations of quality filmmaking. From its cringe-inducing dialogue to its baffling plot twists, this movie is a prime example of how NOT to ma…

Blown Away - Bombs, sure, but not the way they wanted 1:54:11

4M ago1:54:11

1:54:11

The nachos I ate during viewing were far more explosive. Blown Away (1994) has all the ingredients for a high-octane thriller, with an explosive premise centered around a former IRA terrorist, played by Jeff Bridges, who becomes a bomb disposal expert. However, the end result is an underwhelming movie that leaves audiences feeling like they've just…

Ishtar - Ishnotsobad? 1:38:18

4M ago1:38:18

1:38:18

Notorious for being one of the biggest flops of all time, can it be as bad as history has made it out to be? The 1987 film "Ishtar" and let me just say, is...confusing. The movie seems to have garnered a reputation for being a colossal flop, and while I can understand why some might hold that opinion, I believe there's more to it than meets the eye…

Night Teeth - Ugh, valley girl vampires are so passe. 1:31:56

4M ago1:31:56

1:31:56

Thirsty vamps get Ubered around town on a poorly thought out territory takeover only to find true love in....Benny? "Night Teeth," the latest Netflix Original Movie, is a cocktail of clichés served with a side of disappointment.

When a stuntman as prolific as John Stewart directs an action movie, you better believe you're gonna have a good time.

New York Ninja - Powdered Egg Vengeance 1:50:47

5M ago1:50:47

1:50:47

Revenge is best served at the end of a katana sword that your wife bought for you at the mall. Time to make some floured eggs. Suit up, ninja enthusiasts, because "New York Ninja" is a wild ride that takes us back to the glory days of 80s action cinema. This 2021 hidden gem, rescued from obscurity, brings us a delightful mix of a ridiculous plot, u…

Annabelle - I am NecraZul, Lord Demon of the LA Rams and Tea Parties 1:35:48

5M ago1:35:48

1:35:48

A horror movie that thrills its audience with...uh....hmmm...sewing? Oh and a demon is summoned out of loneliness and a desire to have tea parties with dollies. This is so unbelievably bad. "Annabelle" (2014) is a cinematic catastrophe that makes you question the very fabric of horror filmmaking. From a plot that can only be summarized as "a cult s…

Highlander II - Immortal Space Laser Conspiracy Theory 1:56:02

5M ago1:56:02

1:56:02

Whether they are spacemen or from 1999 or from before the dinosaurs, The Immortals make some really stupid decisions and are pretty bad for Earth. How bout there can only be none? If you're a fan of mind-bending and utterly nonsensical movies, then "Highlander 2" is your ticket to an alternate reality where coherence takes a vacation and weirdness …

Double Trouble - It takes two, baby 1:38:37

6M ago1:38:37

1:38:37

The Paul Bros. bench-press their way into our hearts and into a crime caper where they have to put their backs together and look over their shoulders with expressions that say, "You did it?" and "No, I thought you did it?" In the vast landscape of '90s comedies, "Double Trouble" emerges as a hidden gem that not only stands the test of time but also…

An elf gets ditched by his horrible boss, Santa, and is forced to fend for his life because some bratty girl doesn't appreciate the life her father has built for her as a single dad.

Highlander - Listen first before sending death threats 1:48:17

7M ago1:48:17

1:48:17

Just because we think its nonsense doesn't mean we AND you can't like it, but seriously.... Highlander, the 1986 fantasy film directed by Russell Mulcahy, is a cinematic rollercoaster that manages to be entertaining despite its numerous flaws. To put it bluntly, it's not a good movie in terms of traditional filmmaking standards, but there's an unde…

Dirty O'Neil - It's not his police work that's dirty - it's his d--- 1:38:21

7M ago1:38:21

1:38:21

Officer Jimmy O'Neil avoids the hard life of hard-boiled cops by taking it easy and just banging ladies, until justice needs some sweet, sweet loving too. "Dirty O'Neil," released in 1974, is a film that takes you on a wild journey through the low crime streets of suburban Los Angeles. While the movie has its merits, it certainly has its drawbacks,…

Bloodfist III - Forced to Watch 1:18:22

7M ago1:18:22

1:18:22

Don "The Dragon" Wilson is not the same guy as the first two or the last five movies. This time he's in prison and......oh sorry fell asleep. If you're searching for a thrilling martial arts experience, "Bloodfist III: Forced to Fight" ain't it. This lackluster sequel not only fails to capture the essence of its predecessors but falls flat on every…

1:09:43

Dean Cameron is a vampire who doesn't bite people but has to relive the death of his beloved Moana who is killed every 22 years by a pirate wielding a ham-bone. But not this year, buster!

Blood Hook - Sinker Madness 1:39:28

8M ago1:39:28

1:39:28

When going fishing goes wrong, you can always blame cicadas. Actually, just blame cicadas for everything bad. "Blood Hook," the 1986 cult classic, is a hidden gem that beautifully exemplifies the art of making the most of a shoestring budget. This film's charmingly absurd and delightful combination of elements makes it an absolute delight for fans …

Curse 3: Blood Sacrifice - You’re not Pangaing your way out of this one 1:33:59

9M ago1:33:59

1:33:59

Vamps - Undead dating can be such a bummer 1:31:22

9M ago1:31:22

1:31:22

It's more Clueless than Blade but it sure ain't The Lost Boys. I still believe, though."Vamps," the 2012 movie starring Alicia Silverstone and Krysten Ritter, offers a refreshing and somewhat quirky take on the vampire genre. While it may not be everyone's cup of tea (including 1/3 of Stinker Madness), it certainly has its charm, thanks to its uniq…
