(While this is a blog that primarily covers video games, I will from time to time talk about something else just for the sake of having a little more variety. Please Understand)
Birdemic 2: The Resurrection
One might find it hard to believe with Birdemic Shock and Terror's place in the so bad it’s good movie pantheon that the sequel would fly so under the radar. Most people that have seen the first Birdemic either aren't aware the sequel exists or have seen it and think it’s not as funny as the first one. I for one love the sequel even more than original. Mainly because of the even more randomly insane non sequiturs like the giant jumbo jellyfish, caveman zombies, and prehistoric birds brought to life by red global warming rain. Even better is that James Nguyen, the director of both Birdemic films is still under the delusion that he is the next Hitchcock. If you haven’t seen the first Birdemic then start here. You will likely regret it, but you’ll enjoy doing it regardless.
The Amazing Bulk
This movie is completely indescribable, but I will do my best to put it into words. Imagine if you will An Incredible Hulk parody shot entirely with green screen, using stock animations rather than making anything of their own, and performed by actors that don’t have any grip on reality whatsoever. It is amazing and I laughed myself silly throughout the entire thing. Just watch the trailer yourself. No words can truly do this film justice.
Poultrygeist: Night of the Chicken Dead
Troma Entertainment Inc. is one of the oldest independent film makers best known for The Toxic Avenger and a huge number of exploitation films. Yet the funny thing about Troma’s films is that underneath all the sex, violence, and gore there is often some kind of social commentary, usually anti corporate in nature. Poultrygeist is a film that makes fun of hippy protesters, fast food restaurants, zombie movies, and pretty much every member of the human race. It never takes itself too seriously and it is just a whole lot of fun if you can get past the gore and sex.
Those were some so bad it’s good movies to check out. They're not for everyone and I can safely assume that many of you will probably hate them. But, I firmly believe that everything has some kind of value and should be shared even if that value is only “don’t be this.” hope at least a few of you can find enjoyment in these movies like me.
