Which of writer/director/ sometimes-actor Coleman Francis' 3 movies is his worst?  

The Beast of Yucca Flats  (1961)
Skydivers  (1963)
Red Zone Cuba  (1965)

My pick would go with Red Zone Cuba.

I've only seen "Beast of Yucca Flats", but I'd say it would be hard to surpass that one in the way of bad-moviemaking by Francis or anyone else for that matter. Do all his films obscure speakers' faces whilst stilted actors speak on the soundtrack? Do all his films feature gentle strangulations? :smile:

For the latest on the fifth installment in Don Coscarelli's Phantasm saga.

I haven't seen RED ZONE CUBA yet, so I have to abstain.  But I kinda like the other 2. 

Mr. Briggs, SKYDIVERS doesn't have dubbed in narration: the bad actors mumble their horrible lines of dialogue directly into their mikes.  And there's no gentle strangulation either, only a plan to put acid in people's chutes for no particular reason.

If you get the Rhino volume (I think it was 2) of MST3K, they put the original uncut, non-MST3K version of Skydivers on the flip side of the disc.

Remember, Shaq Fu made Shaq's music career look like massive success.
