What Terrible Movie Do You Love?

Dude! Where's my car?

Howard The Duck.

So many fantasy/sci-fi possibilities here--"Krull", "Beastmaster", "Time Bandits"--but nothing beats this film. I'm not even sure what it was made for (English TV, maybe?) but it's hard to top a horrible Tolkien-esque script complete with synthesizer soundtrack, cheap effects, and Jack Palance chewing the scenery.

80’s Stallone, arm wrestling and a Kenny Loggins soundtrack. What’s not to love?

Holy shit, how have I never heard of this? And how did they get Jack Palance to do that?

Well, I'll see you this, and raise you The Sword and the Sorcerer.

Jack Palance has to be one of the most interesting people to ever be in film. He worked in a coal mine as a kid, had over 15 fights as a professional boxer, flew in a B-24 in WWII, went to Stanford, was Brando's understudy on stage, earned an Oscar nomination in one of his first films, then another the next year, ended up doing movies all over Europe for decades, and then ended up winning an Oscar 40 years after his first nomination for a small role in a comedy. He's also related to Chuck Palahniuk, who wrote Fight Club

the Last Dragon

now this movie was awful but it should have been so much worse. the reason this movie exists is because of the feud between Prince and Rick James. After Prince starred in Purple Rain, Rick became obsessed with starring in a movie of his own. He went to Berry Gordy and demanded that motown get behind him and create a movie that would feature Rick James acting and music. Motown thought that was a good idea so they started on working on the concept. Rick was supposed to write and record the main theme of the movies soundtrack. that theme would be Glow, the aura around Rick James.



so Rick James set off to do that but just couldn't produce in time for the movie since was preoccupied with drugs. The script was written with RJ in mind to play the villain Sho-nuff. But Rick had done some reading for casting and did poorly so, the people doing the casting looked for a replacement just in case. Rick also hated Asian martial arts and was very skeptical of Kung Fu/Karate. Motown had the script and most of the cast and were ready to start shooting. but they still needed the soundtrack. they told rick to finish and they hedged their bets by hiring someone else to write the Glow theme.



Rick eventually finished his version of Glow but it was too late. most of the movie was in the can. Rick was cut out of the movie because he was replaced by an actor with experience in kung fu movies. Still, Rick was determined to make his acting debut. so he made a video for Glow and turned that into his vanity project.

That movie would be even more of a cult classic with Rick James.

Here’s a few absurdly bad movies that I quite enjoyed.
