I had to watch Horror of Spider Island to get the bad taste out of my mouth.

Seconded. I finally watched this for the first time to complete my "So Bad It's Good" run, and it was just agonizing to sit through the whole 70 minutes. Excruciatingly dull and just plain bad.

What else made that list? If you haven't seen it already, may I suggest Terror In Beverly Hills?

You should watch the Rifftrax version. I just got done watching it for like the 5th time. It actually makes this into a funny and watchable movie. Pretty much every sh!tty movie they riff becomes funny and watchable. I probably have around 200 really bad movies that I wouldn't even consider watching unless it was the Rifftrax copy.

I used to do drugs. I still do, but I used to, too.

Still better than Saving Christmas or Audacity.

The actor who played Torgo was on acid during the production. The married couple were hilarious to watch. The wife looked 40 years younger than the husband. The film is bad, but it's entertaining. I'd rather watch this than most high budget garbage that comes out these days.

Thank you. This movie is entertaining and introduces two very memorable characters in Torgo and The Master. I'm so sick of group think.

Seeing that it was made by a fertilizer salesman I think they actually did a pretty damn good job it's not like they were some Hollywood bigwigs who made a stinker

I agree. This is the worst film of all time.

It’s really awful. The only actor worth a damn is the gimped up guy.

[–] specterkev (117) 5 years ago

I thought it was a pretty good attempt from a fertilizer salesman, instead of a hollywood production company

[–] Mrmojo4700 (21470) 4 years ago

I guess that should be taken into consideration.

this one needed more fertilizing, I guess

[–] Mulletor (533) 4 years ago

Or less fertilizer.
