I've mentioned this before in other threads but I actually like Halloween III: Season of the Witch. Something about the evil super villain plot that I find appealing. And that damn Silver Shamrock jingle. But yeah, Halloween purists seem to hate the departure from the Michael Myers story line.

Hands down:
<b>Death Stalker 2 </b>(not 1 or 3)
There are no words for how much fun it is to see the set, which burned to the ground in the 1st installment, being used for the set of the second send up of itself (a bad B fantasy flick with no redeeming value -- except as the source of this gem). And the outtakes are even better.
Got it on Amazon awhile back, and can't wait to see it again. John Terlesky stars, but don't trust the credit's list as:
"In the closing credits, after the main cast credits, there is a list of 87 fake names, most of which are characters from other films: Deke Rivers (Elvis Presley's character in 'Loving You') Roger O. Thornhill (Cary Grant's character in 'North by Northwest') Virgil Hilts (Steve McQueen's character in 'The Great Escape') ... " (IMDb)
That should tell you how awesome it is...referencing Preley/Grant/McQueen/etc. in CREDITS. Best bad movie EVER!!!!

Heh, Doc....if I ever even heard of that film, it has slipped my mind. And that is weird cuz it's the kind of thing peeps I know WOULD tell me about, and I would watch it if they did.
So, given your post, I HAVE heard of it now, and I will hunt it down and watch.

the hyperbole is a beauty...for we are then allowed to say a little more than the truth...and language is more efficient when it goes beyond reality than when it stops short of it.

We seem to have similar tastes in bad movies. I also am a fan of the Halloween 3, and honestly, I never saw the appeal of Michael Myers. Then again, I'm Jason's bitch. But I did like this creative, but dumb, little story, and yes...that jingle....every year singing it before I even realize I'm doing it.aTOMiC wrote:I've mentioned this before in other threads but I actually like Halloween III: Season of the Witch.

Vraith, I came across it by accident when I was in college. Had a night to kill and rented all three of them at SunCoast Video. Watched the first one, and thought...CRAP! If the other two are as bad as this one just was, I am going to be Soooooo mad.
#2 made me laugh so hard my sides hurt. And thus, I was disappointed by #3, which tried to make a decent sequel to the first (instead of the second, which would have been much better!).
I hope you enjoy it. Let me know if you ever get to see it.

I just re-discovered two of them, oddly starring the same guy.
Dead Heat. A bad movie starring Treat Williams and Joe Piscopo as cops hunting rich zombies. Oh, and Treat Williams is dead. And his name is "Roger Mortis". Great fun.
Deep Rising, an Aliens clone also starring Treat Williams that leans hard into camp that's way less stupid and a lot more fun than it should be.

Oh man. So many bad movies, so little time.
Hot Stuff -- I remember this, back in the days when I was less discriminating. But I still laugh when it comes on. Is that nostalgic?
Tremors -- I have always loved how they never find out where they come from.
Ice Pirates -- space herpes?
Deep Rising -- in the elevator "what's that?" "girl from epanema."
Big Trouble in Little China -- "what won't be back??"
Money Pit -- "I'm in the floor behind the chair."
Burbs -- "I've never seen someone drive down to the curb and beat their garbage to death."

Did a 1984 Terrible Movie Double Feature last night.....
The Ice Pirates: Did not age well. It's played surprisingly straight at the beginning, and then the insanity creeps in. The effects are terrible, the acting is questionable (you can literally see the Princess's eyes tracking the cue cards), and the story jumps all over the place. There had to be literal tons of cocaine involved in the making of this film.
Top Secret: While it'll never have the laughs of Airplane!, it's still a solid movie. I lol'd enough to make re-watching it worthwhile, and I'd forgotten a fair number of the jokes, so it still seemed reasonably fresh.

Ultraviolet 9% rotten tomatoes 30% audience score.
I really like this film. Right from the opening credits your inside a living comic. Slick, glossy, mad futuristic devices, invented languages, with lots and lots of Gun fu. And of course, Milla Jovovich.
I found this movie in my local DVD shop bargain bin.
What more can you ask for at 75p.

The Postman kicks all sorts of ass. I love every sappy second of that movie.

Anchorman 2 should have been stupid, but I found myself laughing anyway. Go figure.
