zany sequels to 'serious' originals....

Um, you people do know that a lot of bad movies are made as tax write offs, right? Watch "the producers" or "lobster man from mars" to see how that is supposed to work.

Yes we all know that. Uwe Boll made an entire career out of it. Doesn't mean we can't comment and complain about the results though.

Uwe Boll made an entire career out of it.

The two exceptions to those bad movies are the two he made in South Africa: 1968 Tunnel Rats and the emotionally devastating Darfur / Attack on Darfur.

this thread made me.realise I have never seen:

RETURN OF THE LIVING DEAD
HIGHLANDER
HOUSE *although I've seen HOUSE 3, which was pretty goofy iirc
WILD GEESE
PHANTASM *well I think I started watching it once...

I'm an amateur!

I own most of them, but haven't got around to watching any of those either, besides Return of the Living Dead of course.

I get HIGHLANDER confused with THE HITCHER (which I haven't seen either...seen about half of the remake but it was a bit bobbins tbh)
