And Ray Bradbury endorsed the movie! That's what blows my mind about that.

Another recommendation for the list - DOA - Dead or Alive. (Or, in this case, the initials could also mean something else.)

Based on a series of fighting games best known for its bouncing boob physics, the movie was a low budget action movie about an evil villain (played by Eric Roberts) who lures a bunch of martial arts fighters to his private island for a tournament. Heard that one before, you say? Wait till you get a load of his evil plan...

He plans to steal the fighting abilities of each fighter using science and technology, and then, store them in a pair of sunglasses. Yes, you heard right. And so, whenever Eric Roberts puts on the sunglasses, he gains the ability of each fighter that's been scanned into the machine.

You might have noticed a flaw in this plan - He only has these abilities while wearing the sunglasses. And, well, since it's not very hard to knock off or break someone's sunglasses in a fight, the guy's pretty much screwed as soon as the final fight sequence starts.

Or, he could have them sewn on, which would hurt big time with any punch to the face, eh?

Plus Devon "deadly little Miho" Aioki and Jaime Pressly and fight choreography/direction by Cory Yuen.

THE MARINE- I should hate this movie, but I can't. I don't care for wrestling, I don't care for these type of movies in general, there are many cliches that we've seen in a hundred other pictures, but in the end it's a fun film. It is very much like a 1980s Arnie movie.

THE LAST ACTION HERO- Awful movie. There is no tension in the fantasy world because you know it's just a fantasy, and the real world is pretty bleak. But I think it works fairly well. I like the contrast. I like how the real Arnie is kind of a prick, there's some dark elements to the film that took me by surprise. And I enjoyed seeing Arnie doing Shakespeare.

Birdemic. It's just so deserving. Whenever I'm asked the very worst I've ever seen, it's the nadir. I'm thinking I've now seen it more than The Dark Knight. It's gripping in its sheer ineptitude. It makes me think of how great The Room was as it had things like um, sound mixing.
