obvious movie rip offs

[mactazer]

mmmmmmmmmmmmmm we are human

mmmmmmmmmmmmmm after all

[HorrorLover128]

The Hills Have Eyes as well as King Kong's poster is for the remake therefor invalidating the whole list because of there lack of originality

[CloneComander1138]

recent one THOR and ALMIGHTY THOR. and BATTLE: LOS ANGELES and BATTLE OF LOS ANGELES!

[mindmycheeseandqs]

1:28

"A Legit Scott film"

[Laughtraxx]

Anyone notice the box for Hillside Cannibals said "The stry that inspired The Hills Have Eyes?" HA!

[porkyminch01]

lol at I am Omega, omega males are supposed to be bellow beta males, they are the classical misfits and rejects from society.

[Wiialator]

I guess no one seems to remember "A Boy and His Dog" from the 70's and how much "I Am Legend" tried to emulate the idea of a man and his dog working together and trying to survive in post apocalyptia.

[VhDVE]

All those movies are made by asylum and you forgot alien vs hunter and war of the worlds

[cwongchung]

Enough is ENOUGH!!

I've had it with these motherfucking snakes,

on this motherfucking TRAIN,.. I mean PLANE!!

[cjazzman1]

actually none of these movies are hollywood. every single one is from an independent company called "the asylum" that has a lot to do with syfy originals which, oodddly enough, all of these are

[starball23]

i saw King of the Lost World back in either 2005 or 2006, i should have known it was made by Asylum

[darthkarr]

the hills have cannibals even has the hills have eyes written aboe it XD

[CyberianTheBat]

THE alien is a sider thing

[MrJmandude]

lol alien vs. hunter is a gay rip off those two aliens look similar but alot less cooler and uglier and monster wow ive seen that movie it is terrible XD

[KikumaruKaidoh]

Lol....thats hurting....

[wtfomgstudios]

Nice music man, P.S....on King of The Lost World, you can tell that is the same marquee "King" from the King Kong thing. P.S.S. what is a hunter? P.S.S.S. another Hillside Canniballs. It is called the Wrong Turn trilogy.

[machokickass147]

@wtfomgstudios haha that's pretty funny

[GORIZARD4]

wats the song?

[machokickass147]

@GORIZARD4 The song I just made up a long time ago, i thought it would be cool to make a song to go along with this video. Shortly after wards I realized that i have no musical talent what so ever.

[GORIZARD4]

@machokickass147 It's a good song dude

[caveman5692]

Riley... These films... All of them... that you list... Are by Asylum Studios. Asylum, as in the Mockbuster American film studio. As in, they find out what movies are being made by whom, research them, and make shitty parodies. They do tons of movies, and try to release them on the same day or around the time of the movie they're making fun of.

You knew that right?

[machokickass147]

@caveman5692 I did

[YourNameHere136]

@caveman5692 there not parodies there just

REALY bad so maybe they seem funny

[TheComboMeal]

i posted a comment onthe 2nd videowith more rip offs butthis one takes the cake

origional: high school musical

fake: sunday school musical

i honestly couldent make this up...

[tevinbeatty]

Wow... I can imagine the number of confused old people that saw these DVDs at food lion er sumthin...

[wfcposey]

What about Raptor Island? LoL

[zack9786]

all of these are ASYLUM STUDIOS movies

[dubhippy]

snakes on a train? oh freakin' no they didn't!

hunter vs alien ius actually probably BETTER than AVP which pretty much sucks

i am omega not only rips of i am legend, but also the omega man which i am legend is a remake of

[iamdirecter]

youtube "Interview with asylem" they are the makers of all these movies, and yes, they are all 100% rip ofs of movies which get hyped up

[dubhippy]

according to the movie producers on the asylum wikipedia page, they prefer that their films be called "movie tie ins" LOL

[JDT710]

Most seem genuine rip offs but I think snakes on a train was probably just some spoof movie of it.

[norwaygy]

hillside cannibal says it is based off the story that inspired the hills have eyes so it is not really a copy

[Disthron]

I know about the transmorphers one. Isn't it more of a rip off of Terminator? Other than the poster I mean.

[norwaygy]

yeah it is

[Taraalcar]

You forgot 'Metal Man.' One of the best I've ever seen. Just try and guess what its ripping off.

[BossumAwesome]

what about The Island

which is a rip off of Parts: the Clonus Horror

[FEARfilmz]

i just don't see why The Asylum doesn't get in trouble for ripping off movies

[konstatalom]

Because they're doing Mockbusters which they're mocking some other Blockbuster movies.

[megaultradamn]

"in this day and age we can have some of the most original movies there can ever be" dude have you seen some of todays movies? today, we have remakes, sequels, prequels, rip-offs, adaptations... yep, we are VERY original. the 60's and 90's was the original era.

[machokickass147]

sarcasm, it was sarcasm

[TVwriter23]

Actually there has always been remakes, sequels or imitations. Hollywood did it all the time. Especially because once a movie came out it wasn't really seen again and so it was remade.

[megaultradamn]

@TVwriter23 yeah, i know, but today there are more remakes, adaptations,etc.

[TVwriter23]

Actually there are were just as many in old Hollywood. Lon Chaney and many other actors were in movies similar to movies they had been in before as well as remakes and adaptations. Many old Hollywood movies came from books and plays

[luisalexander70]

i am omega was first

[Fallingsnow57]

Ah, asylum studios. Bringing us the most unoriginal crap.

[RivellusX]

they were both released at the same time so how could they have been spoofed off of each other...unless the makers of monster were spying on the makers of cloverfield.

[RivellusX]

actually, the movie monster and the movie cloverfield were both released on the same day. just look it up on wiki.

[Kousaburo]

I have to admit, the cover art for Transmorphers does look pretty cool. I really don't wanna watch it though. For a review see Bad Movie Beatdown on Thatguywiththeglasses(.)com

[machokickass147]

I love thatguywiththeglasses

[IVIBRANDONIVI]

hahaha, riley. of course u would make a video of something like this. i love it

[BUDDY6414724297]

Star Wars was a rip off of Silent Running, so said the judge when Lucas sued over Battlestar Galactica.

[TVwriter23]

Also can't forget The Hidden Fortress.

[baluvxaluv]

They had the balls to literally call thier movie

"Monster"?.....WTF?

[pabulica]

that's why we have Torrents

[lordvaladak]

Transmorphers and Snakes on a Train were pretty damn funny xD

[MarineDelta1]

dood what is this song... it sounds like a slowed down version of Human After All by Daft Punk...

[machokickass147]

well, whenever I'm bored i try to make songs. But i shortly realized i have no true musical talent so i just use other songs to try to make my own. So basically i sample for everything. So.....uh yeah i used human after all your right.

[Lymmar]

I worked at a video store for about 6 years. We got alot of those because they are cheap as shit for the company to purchase. It is worst with horror movies. I think the makers of the ripoffs are hoping to capitalize on complete morons who can't tell if they've rented the real one of the rip off.

[Prod1Kh]

I Am Omega looks like it's just a re-make of The Omega Man, which I Am Legend is a remake of anyway (and the book had already been filmed as The Last Man on Earth, so that's 2 versions before Will got to it). Hillside Killers? How can a film that claims to be the real story be a rip-off of the (re-make) fictionalisation? You've clearly never watched King of the Lost World (I wish I hadn't).

It'd also help to learn how to spell "plagiarism"; your sarcasm would be so much more, well, informed.

[machokickass147]

meh kant speel gewd

[Prod1Kh]

yeah yeah. Actually preferred part 2. It was funny as Hell.

[BratvaTV]

If you want to talk about rip offs, try Zinda. Pretty much a shot for shot rip off of Oldboy. Not a remake, or a similar movie...a complete rip off. Same script, story, even wardrobe. lol

[dexterville]

it's not a "creativity" issue in Hollywood.....it's an "insurance" issue .

"Instinct", "intuition" ...have nearly lost their relevance and appeal for most studio executives .

Financing something new and unproven ..is too much of a gamble. in Hollywood "Gambling" is as bad as Alcohol or Drug addition.

[clintrock]

These movies are ripping off movies that are rip offs. Almost every movie you listed is a remake. some are remakes of remakes. So who's the bad guy?

[Joyotoyo]

WTF! ''King of the lost world even has the same style of letters in the word king.... Thats just... PHail

[McMoney11]

When a stranger calls is a remake of a movie from the 70's or 80's called have you checked the children lately...So the first one actually would be copying the second.

[Kalbiross]

alien vs hunter i had to look that up and it was freaking funny how bad it was

[MovieReviewsWith]

KK GUYS!! LISTEN UP! IM GONNA MAKE A VID ABOUT THE ASYLUM AND THERE MOVIE RIP OFFS!! PLZ WHATCH IT WHEN IT COMES OUT,WHICH IS SOON. THESE GUYS NEED TO STOP MAKING RIP OFFs~~~~~~!!!! i need views for this vid so it can go off and people can stop buying these cheap rip offs!!

[MovieReviewsWith]

ill also make it a vid response to this video!!

[THISNAMEOWNS]

wouldnt that be a rip off of this? :/

[MovieReviewsWith]

i didnt think of that, ill put it as a vid response. but the point is i just want people to be aware of this rip off thing

[TVwriter23]

Be aware of what? I see no big deal? And if they are crap fests so what? They are supposed to be they are cheesy genre films. And I don't know why Hwood would are acting trippy this has been going on since the VCR.

[DBraeges]

The really funny thing is that all the rip off movies listed are all from the same company, The Asylum.

[sndn2]

The Day The Earth Stopped is a complete rip off of:

The Day The Earth Stood Still

[YllenNoslen]

i am legend is a remake of i am omega

[MovieReviewsWith]

are u kidden me?

[BrainsGambino]

I thought it was called Omega man.

[YllenNoslen]

nope, I am Omega

[supermax1998]

Uh..no. It's based of of a book called I Am Legend.

[YllenNoslen]

no you fuckface look it up

[supermax1998]

Okay, I Am Legend was a book made in 1954, then a movie called The Last Man On Earth ten years later, then came the Omega Man in 1971, and finally I Am Legend in 2007. I Am Legend had more to do with the book than the movie.

[haleyfamily1975]

You sir are correct

[Prod1Kh]

Very Correct. Vincent Price in The Last Man on Earth, Charlton Heston in The Omega Man, Will Smith in I Am Legend and Mark Dacascos in I Am Omega.

All of them based on the book I Am Legend. And the Governator was originally slated to do I Am Legend.

YllenNoslen as well as being rude was just wrong.

[oktahahighboredness]

all of those rip off were made by the some production company!lol(The Asylum-wikipedia it if u dont believe me)

[grey02]

killer drag queens on dope rofl

[TheRealDjTrav]

the funny thing is that ive seen most of these movies on the shelves of a video rental store. Ive even watched snakes on a train. That is most horrible movie u can watch.

[whyyoulittle40]

i must see i am omega, plus "i am legend sounds" cooler

[TVwriter23]

Yes if Asylum or others stopped making the crap fest that would take away the fun of making fun of them. Not a rip-off film, but a good fun b movie to watch is Roger Corman's The Fantastic Four (might still be able to find it on youtube)

[H0rizon1]

you missed out invasion, worst film i have ever seen. and it kinda like war of the worlds because in the end, all the aliens die of some desease. but invasion had such a crappy budget on it, the main character ran like a retard...

...I cant believe the Spar let me rent it...

[0insertbrainhere0]

snakes on a train, lol.

[Gamingtrevor]

Very nice observations, however, I have one bone to pick;

One thing I noticed, is most of the 'copied' ones you did show were, in fact, remakes.

Omen, When a Stranger Calls, King Kong, I Am Legend, The Hills Have Eyes.

Even Cloverfield is believed to be based on H.P. Lovecraft's Monster!

Most everything coming out now a days is a movie BASED on something else. A book, an old movie, a comic, a cartoon. It's shameful, but we keep buying it. It's half our faults we keep getting crap.

[0insertbrainhere0]

They weren't, they were made by a company called asylum, who makes movies rip offs on purpose, at the same time the movie comes out.

[dropgod26]

well, the ones they ripped off were still remakes. Hills have eyes originally came out in the 70's, I Am Legend was originally I Am Omega from the 70's, King Kong is obvious... The Omen came out in the 70's, etc etc etc etc

[Buckeyecat2002]

These are all clasic movies inspired by original entertainment pieces. Why, I even own a copy of the simien epic

"King of the Lost World." These should be packaged together as a chrismas gift collectors series called "The Asylum Too Good for Theatre Series."

[pray4chicken]

there is another one called " halloween night " hmmmm lol

[jokamund]

Transmorphers! Robots that are hidding their identity!

[KSIrulerTK]

Omg, I rented Monster from Hollywood video thinking it would be interesting.....It was so freakin gay.

[Gibix]

lol, that was pretty funny i just found you vid by the side while i was checking mine out about ripoffs which is about songs, check it out

[DrStrangeweird]

i have an addition for you, the asylum's journey to the center of the earth, guess what movie this is cashing in on?! give you a hint, it stars brendan fraser

[mitch2468353]

Ugh this video is so incorrect

[beezzarro]

how so, this is just showing the obvious. this guy deserves an award

[lacthewatcher1]

transmorphers of course.

[EuanEchidhog]

Hi there

Heh, yeah...thats Asylum for you XD

Euan

[ozzysslave]

you forgot the hitchhiker. the hitcher. pirates of treasure island- pirates the carribean

[squidlovesyou]

snakes on a train lol they could have at least done like snakes on a boat, on a blimp, or even on a space ship. xD

[AidanHM]

Drakes on a Train would be better

Quack

[Panpizza15]

Damn, what shitty movies.
