So...they have a problem with kids getting drugs...but see no harm at all in letting an untrained kid have a gun and use it as one would a toy? And aren't they supposed to be role models? At least the drug dealers are earning their money, not stealing. lol
Is it just me, or are the blonds and the Asian the only women who AREN'T butt ugly? I've seen plenty of beautiful black women in my time, but the one in this film makes me want to retch.
This is what all Quentin Tarentino films look like to me. I think what they have in common is the clouds of "tantrum talc" that must have feulled them.
I've watched a lot of MST3K and never have I seen a movie with so few redeeming qualities. All the B sci-fi movies, the terrible 80s flicks, the made for TV movies, all of them have somehow been better than this. The riffing is funny, but wow, this movie might just be too bad to be saved by the Mike, Tom and Crow.
If only poor Jim Backus got residuals from Gilligan's Island! Of course not too many actors at the time did get residuals for their work. One of the few was Audrey Meadows, Alice from the Honeymooners. Of course she had a slight advantage: her brothers were lawyers! :D
In turns of being evil you can be both stupid and smart. For example Dr Robotnik in AoStH was a genius as he could build robots but always had crap plans. Bond villains such as when in You Only Live Twice sent helicopters to kill Bond just after Bond was going to fly away anyway when he saw nothing.
Yes but wasn't the actual Circus of the Stars, Circus of the... oh never mind.
What is that "...... in a Chevy van and that's alright with me?" They referred to it in I think Hobgoblins and Soultaker as well. Dworkinfest '78! Hey I just got that, I was just reading about Andrea Dworkin. I love suddenly getting something they are referring to! :D
There is not one single line of dialogue in this movie that is worth hearing. I'll admit that I'm no great actress, but I could do a better job than any of these characters.
I think in terms of acting ability these guys are worse than the Hobgoblins actors.
These are a few of my favorite lines (from this segment): "These survivalists couldn't survive a grape embargo." "Women, and they're fully boobed." "I'm the NRA and it's fun!" "Go ahead on 7, tight pants." "This a tough fourth step."
It recalls to mind Bush era villains that had to be evil, stupid, AND some how a threat. Now Avatar is doing the same thing; the bad guys are evil AND stupid.
You can't have it both ways!
Why can't bad guys in movies just represent bad things, instead of being politically motivated strawman potshots?
Actually you can have it both ways. You'd have to be stupid to be a villain after all. Being stupid doesn't always revolve around lack of intelligence but also lack of common sense. A scientist does what he can to help mankind in some way depending on his field of study. If a scientist willingly works for an evil douche, then he's stupid for wanting to help some maniac.
Intelligence doesn't specifically mean you still don't do something dumb. Mao was an idiot for doing what he did to China. It was a wonderful country once. It still is, but due to Mao, many of the people live as slaves and don't know it.
I think ruthlessness is less of not knowing the difference between right and wrong, it's choosing not to use it. I don't think it's intelligence, so much of as it's a blind devotion to personal ideals.
Besides remembers Spaceballs: Good can be dumb too. :D
Well, that's a massive generalisation! You should consume more Japanese fiction if you think ALL their villains are just irrational maniacs.
No one country has a singular belief of how something should be. Besides, from what I've seen Japanese film in particular has shown a real trend for "grey area" villains since the late 90s, so I dunno where you're getting your info.
So...they're doing all this because of how the scumbag dealers are corrupting kids, but they let a kid help them steal guns, teach her how to fire guns, and let her watch as they torture someone?
I love it. They rob innocent people with different beliefs. They kidnap a man without evidence and torture him. They steal a car... And they are worried about people selling drugs!~? XD
.....Aaaaand once again Graydon Clark out-Ed Woods Ed wood. Filmed on location in hell. Mst3k performs comedy alchemy - Imagine just watching this film "normally" -It would serve as a pretty solid defense case in a trial of someone snapping & going on a random killing spree.
Not really. There was a swine flu epidemic in the mid 1970s. I still remember the news footage of President Ford rolling up his sleave to receive a then-controversial swine flu vaccine.
@sipioc Hot actresses with no shame, no budget, and no plot. That's pretty much how most porno starts, but noooooo, this guy wanted an ACTION film....
