If y'all think the 00's is the decade of crap movies, check this out:
http://www.agonybooth.com/reviews/

"Thor and the Amazon Women" (1963)

"Superman III" (1983)

Moonraker (1979)

"Be Somebody or Be Somebody's Fool" (1984, the height of T-dom...)

"The Concorde: Airport '79". (1979) George Kennedy, Robert Wagner, Susan Blakely, Eddie Albert, John Davidson, Martha Raye, Cicely Tyson, Jimmie Walker, and Charo star in this atrocity. A bunch of washed up tv stars, including the guy who was hung out to dry before he got anywhere (John Davison, :cry: ), not to mention Kid DYN-OH-MITE! and Charo's east and west assets did not help either...


(yes, this movie does need a picture reference to show how awful it is...)


(make that two...)


(okay, three)


"Terror in the Year 5000" (probably not about peak oil...)

"When Time Ran Out" (1980)

"Zardoz" (1974, and you thought Sean Connery was a choosy actor... NOT!)

"Mitchell" (1975 - and what do you know, Joe Don Baker is in it. No wonder it's crap.)

Lost in Space (1998... wow, the creator of this website really is on the ball!)

Gigli (2003, ditto)

"Easy Kill" (1989, at least Jane Badler managed to find some work after the awful "V" TV series ended...)

"Batman and Robin" (1997, 'nuff said... :D )

2. I remember Mitchell.
Actually it was the cast of MST3K watching Mitchell. Every time he came into the room they would say "Mitchell!"

4. ZARDOZ SPEAKS!
"The Gun Is GOOD! The Penis is EVIL!

The penis is evil. The penis shoots seeds, and makes new life, and poisons the earth with a plague of men, as once it was.

But the gun shoots death, and purifies the earth of the filth of brutals. Go forth and kill!"


Awsome film! I almost bought a copy of it today. I guess it helps to see it high on acid though.

:evilgrin:

8. Well, those lines come from a giant floating head with it's mouth
always open. Maybe that has something to do with not liking penises?

:evilgrin:

10. Excellent movies to point out there! ...
The Graduate, perverse as it is, never distracts and is downright creepy. And when you think it can't get any better, Norman Fell appears.

Mockingbird is an awesome story... back in high school, I got picked on by fellow kids who called me "Boo Radley"... Then came "Charly" and then that horrid movie starring Mickey Rooney who played a retard...
