I haven't posted one of these in a while, so here we go.

March 24 at 9/8C   Reign of the Gargoyles - Toward the end of WWII the Nazis try something different, using magically brought to life gargoyles to attack the Allies planes.  Stars Joe Penney.

April 7 at 9/8C Kaw - Ravens gone wild in the farmland! Stars Sean Patrick Flanery

April 28 at 9/8C Lake Placid 2 - This time there are three giant crocs.  Stars John Schneider.


More details here.



And you thought Trek isn't cool.

That gargoyles one looks interesting.  I'm sure it will probably suck, but oh well;  I've seen suck before  :teddyr:

I do not watch Sci-Fi anymore...they've become over-saturated with all these "Original" movies.  Like they can't even set aside ONE frickin day of the week to show any good classic sci-fi films anymore.

I look at the schedule, and all I see is "Boa VS Python", "They Nest", "They Fly", "They Bite", "They Crap", and so forth.

I usually give them a chance, every once in a while they have one that's entertainingly bad.  About two-thirds of them get turned of after 20 minutes or so, but you never know.

They should have saved money and made ONE movie called:

KAW LAKE: REIGN OF THE GARGOYLES 2

The plot:  Nazis create gargoyles to kill 3 giant crocodiles, but an uexpected attack by killer ravens causes Sean Patrick Flannery to cancel his contract before filming starts.  In a desperate effort to stick to the production schedule, the producers hire Gary Coleman to take his place.

If they throw in FRANKENFISH... I'm there!

I thought that the first Lake Placid was fun in a completely dumb kind of way.

I still think that they should've had it be a giant killer beaver though.

Oh god...can you imagine the kind of "Beaver" jokes they'd try to get away with... :bouncegiggle:

Hello, I'm Soylentgreen...and I watch Sci-Fi Channel Originals.

Yes, they do run the gamut,  but one thing tends to be consistent.  They are "conversation" "pieces". (I put both words in quotes as either one works as a pun, you choose  :teddyr:)

I watched that SS DOOMTROOPER solely because of it's vague resemblance to the Return to Castle Wolfenstein games. 

DRAGONSTORM wasn't half bad....and it was far better than that Dungeons and Dragons movie.  EARTHSTORM, the one about the cracked moon showering Earth with crappy cgi bollides, was fairly decent.  It helped to be a fan of those over-the-top 50s doomsday flicks.

Some though, honestly, are not just garbage.  They are torture.  Something akin to being subjected to a 72 hour marathon of the Gilmore Girls administered via the Ludovico Technique!  :buggedout:

Dagnagbit Cleatus stop poken that beaver you'll make it swell up with anger.

OH and why in the hell is the Sci-fi channel airing Wreslin' shows now? The ECW or what ever it is.

I've been watching the Sci-fi channel original movies for a long time, Dog Soldiers is really good, liked Frankenfish and Painkiller Jane too, most of the rest are mediocre sci-fi movies that I turned off after 20-30 minutes. Still I plan on watching these 3 films, the trailers look ok, so the movies are worth a look, may even watch the whole thing, won't know till they come on.

I would watch that!  Just me, possibly my roommate, a six pack, and some laughs.  :bouncegiggle:

Make that FRANKENFISH and Lance Henriksen.

EDIT: a F6 tornado would be nice, too.
