I happened to stumble across The Guardian’s article on the worst films for sale at the Cannes Film Festival.
I used to attend the Berlin FilmFest every year and remember the truly horrid films that producers would try to sell - and this site gives you a good idea of the crap that is out there. However, there is always that morbid fascination with wanting to actually see one or more of these films, just to see how truly wretched they are!
Enjoy looking through the movie posters!
If somebody doesn’t buy and distribute Sharknado, there is no God.
I thought Sharknado already had a distributor. And if not, it needs one because I want to see it.
Also, FDR American Badass has been on DVD for almost a year now: Amazon.com
Look at the description for that!
Plus it has Barry Bostwick!
I really, really want to see ‘Bring me the Head of the Machine Gun Woman!!’
I am shocked at some of the names of the actors I recognize. Ok, not Tara Reid, but certainly some of the other ones.
I’m waiting for Avalanche Sharks!
I’m wondering if Derek Jacobi is strapped for cash due to a crack habit.
I’m wondering how SyFy didn’t come up with Sharknado years ago. Somebody’s probably getting fired for that failure as we speak.
While the set up for Santa Claws is pretty awful (allergic Santa incapacitated by exposure to kittens) I find myself drawn to the idea of said kittens going down chimneys and driving the sleigh to deliver the presents. Especially given the normal behaviour of kittens around wrapping paper, parcel ribbons and Christmas trees…
Hey, all those tax debts, late child support, mortgages, stints at rehab, and out-of-court settlements aren’t going to pay themselves, and someone’s gotta act in these movies.
Or, somewhere a producer has video of the actor and a troop of bonobos in a compromising position. Your call.
Nah - he’s just British. Brit actors only care if the check clears.
I want to see Wiener Dog Nationals.
I have a dachshund named Nathan. for the brand of hot dogs.
I thought Asylum was SyFy’s pet studio but even SyFy figures out that some of them are so awesome that it’s good to get some asses in seats before broadcasting them. Plus much of the world doesn’t get SyFy but everybody loves John Heard. And nobody doesn’t like Tara Reid.
Poor John Heard, he used to be respectable. And I just watched a clip of FDR: American Badass on YouTube. The scene is actually pretty funny, sort of like an R-rated Airplane!. Though it looks like it might get a little tedious after 90 minutes…
absolutely no comment.
I have no problem with that. I’d be following in the footsteps of Sir Laurence Olivier, who did Clash of the Titans, and The Jazz Singer.
Damn it, Janet!
Well, to reply to my own post, it’s available on Netflix streaming and while it does have some pretty funny moments I only made it thru about 30 min before it started to drag and lose its appeal. It’s interesting to watch from a film making POV, it’s clearly low budget but low budget films have come a long way from a technical standpoint. It also shows how even though films like Naked Gun or *Airplane! *look so effortless, silly & easy, they’re actually incredibly well scripted, organized & professional. Kind of a shame, with a little more effort & script polishing this rather sophomoric outing could have been more of a sleeper hit.
Those are down right respectable compared to Rev. Moon’s Inchon, his biggest sell-out (though he freely admitted this).
Is it wrong that I really want to see “Copposites”?
