Evil Clutch (1988)

When an Italian movie can't find theatrical distribution in Italy in the 1980s (in a time when they threw everything at the screen), you know you are dealing with a special kind of bad :thumbup:
That's a "nice" comment?!?!?! :bouncegiggle: I love the idea for this thread, though. I could say something nice about EVIL CLUTCH, too, but I actually like it.
Okay... NOSFERATU (2024)! Simon McBurney does such a good job as "Herr Knock" aka Renfield that he had me convinced until the closing credits (as there are no opening ones) that he was Andy Serkis in old man prosthetics. :tongueout: Okay, it's not really a bad movie and I could probably say a dozen nice things about it. I just didn't like it much. I'll think of a worse movie though that I like even less.
the Tall Man was really well made and the director, who made Martyrs, certainly knows what he's doing, but the theme/ point was a bad one and not true at all.
SPECIES 4 has some reasonably good CGI.
The Shape of Things to Come (1979).
Some of the model work is quite good. They're just filmed very badly.
Invictus (2009) had a great cast and director.
The Shining (1980) had some truly scary moments.
District 9 (2009) Sharlto Copley's performance was great as were the visual FX.
Von Ryan's Express had humor.
Lost Horizon (1973)
The music and the cinematography were nice.
Sharknado
Cassie Scerbo was extremely hot in this AND seemed to be the only cast member who was really trying.

Christa Ricci was the only person who didn't embarrass themselves in Bucky Larson
her performance is the only positive in this piece of s**t
HOBGOBLINS ends.
I had no idea she was in BUCKY LARSON. She must've had a rough patch before WEDNESDAY and YELLOWJACKETS...
The Crater Lake Monster has a really cool stop motion dinosaur.

her, Don Johnson and Stephen Dorff are much better than being in this
The poster for MARLOWE (2022) was great.

Fixed! :smile:
I've been pondering the assignment. Here we go:
Amidst proceedings that I find generally childish, ignorant, snotty, and poorly conceived... Mink Stole gives a tour-de-force performance in PINK FLAMINGOS (though of course she always was Waters' not-so-secret weapon) and whenever I stumble across an image of "Connie Marble" I just marvel at how incredibly sexy Stole is, w/ that hair and those glasses and otherwise just being Mink Stole, amidst a film that otherwise makes me want to take a shower.
David Lochary is good as Mr. Marble, too.
The locations/settings/scenery in all 3 LOTR movies are amazing
Cry Freedom has nice music and photography.
Manos has a darker ending than I would have expected from the rest of the movie.
Female Vampire (a.k.a. The Bare-Breasted Countess), feels like a beautiful jigsaw puzzle that was put together all wrong. It's got great atmosphere, great performances, good characters, a perfect title... it just never feels like it comes together like it should.
If you are suffering from insomnia, Star Knight is the movie for you.
While Zontor The Thing From Venus is pretty indicative of Larry Buchanan's works, he at least replaced a grinning evil carrot with a really cool monster bat creature.....
I kinda liked the giant carrot.

I haven't seen It Conquered The World, but I'm left to assume it must be far superior to Zontor The Thing From Venus...
Jackie Earle Haley (Rorshach in Watchmen, Kelly Leek in the Bad News Bears series) was the shining point of the Nightmare On Elm Street remake from 2010.
The movie was god-awful and the cgi was bad, as were most of the performances. But the highlight was Haley as Freddy. Delivered a solid performance, was creepy and a bit more serious. The makeup and cgi used were terrible on him, and I get they were going for a 'realistic' look for a burn victim but they should've done full practical makeup.
Wouldn't say he's better than Robert Englund, but he was good, despite everything else.
