Title: Wtf-Film has ring side seats for MEGA SHARK VS. GIANT OCTOPUS Post by: wtffilm on May 19, 2009, 06:16:26 PM Which was awful, even by The Asylum standards . . .
MEGA SHARK VS. GIANT OCTOPUS (http://www.wtf-film.com/ARTICLE.shtml?MAY_2009/MEGASHARK.html) [2009] Jack Perez ". . . seemed a bit more tongue-in-cheek than its predecessors, at least in concept. In practice, it's just more of the same old, same old, only produced with even less talent or conviction." Other new reviews up at Wtf-Film are: THE GRAPES OF DEATH (http://www.wtf-film.com/ARTICLE.shtml?MAY_2009/GRAPES.html) [1978] Jean Rollin "Once Elisabeth is chased from the train GRAPES is full of wide-open spaces, with much of the action taking place around dilapidated old houses or ruins outright - the distinct lack of anything new enforces the emphasis on decay with the illusion that the countryside itself is falling apart." CANNIBAL TERROR (http://www.wtf-film.com/ARTICLE.shtml?MAY_2009/TERROR.html) [1981] Alain Deruelle "Perhaps the most that can be said for CANNIBAL TERROR is that those involved with it [both in front of and behind the camera] don't look to have taken it any more seriously than was absolutely necessary. While it never reaches the level of outright parody that makes stinker ZOMBIE LAKE as entertaining as it is, TERROR shifts down to a lower gear of complete ineptitude early and remains there for the duration." BAYI AJAIB - Indonesian version of 'The Omen' (http://www.wtf-film.com/ARTICLE.shtml?MAY_2009/BAYI.html) [1982] Tindra Rengat "Several years pass - Didi [Ibrahim] has grown from a creepy baby into a creepy young boy who amuses himself by forcing street performers to hurt themselves [one cuts off his hand!], beating local children at peeing contests, and making a mockery of his own circumcision ceremony. Worse yet, religious things - like the Islamic call to prayer - drive him violently mad." Kindest regards, Kevin P. http://www.wtf-film.com / http://www.colemanfrancis.com |
