Showdown at Area 51

[SynapticBoomstick]

Oh... Lightspeed looks and sounds absolutely BAD but Alien VS Hunter sounds funny; you really have to give at least a little credit to The Asylum, even if their movies are bad, like Shapeshifter and Intermedio.

I can't believe they did this, though. My curiosity is biting!

Let me assure you that ALIEN VS. HUNTER may sound funny - it's not. That's the problem with most of Asylum mockbusters: no personality, excessive dullness, and little that's even amusing on an unintentional scale. Their DVDs have also been plagued with technical problems of late. Case in point:

TRANSMORPHERS REVIEW

[Doc Daneeka]

I saw this one on Saturday night, was fully sober at the time, and thought it was an absolute hoot. It's ludicrous alrighty, but it really is pretty fun to watch. Anyone who claims mental anguish after watching this film clearly has a low constitution for cheesy movies and obviously hasn't subjected themselves to many Sci-Fi Channel original movies because I can assure you this was far and away one of the most enjoyably watchable films they aired all year.

Amen brotha! Karma for you!

TRANSMORPHERS REVIEW

Remember how The Iron Giant was so unhappy about being a gun? These alien machines are polar opposites.
Easily the best moment in that review.

Boring? Anyone who thought this was boring, had too much filler, or was generally unwatchable should be strapped down and forced to sit through such other recent Sci-Fi Channel originals as:

EYE OF THE BEAST
CERBERUS
CROC
BLACK HOLE
EARTHSTORM
STAN LEE'S HARPIES
STAN LEE'S LIGHTSPEED
BATS: HUMAN HARVEST
MANEATER
FIRE SERPENT

I'll just stop there. The point being if you think SHOWDOWN AT AREA 51 is intolerable then let me assure you - you don't know what an unwatchable Sci-Fi Channel original movie really is.

I did watch Eye of the Beast, Bats, and Maneater, and while the first two weren't any fun, I thought Maneater was a scream.  Eye of the Beast was easily the dumbest thing I've seen on Sci-Fi lately, and not in an entertaining way.
