Bad Bascomb, SASS # 47,494 Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 You apparently haven't watched (TRIED to watch) "Night of the Leppus". I recall some bad ones like "Ghost of Dragstrip Hollow" from the times when we went to the friday night movies, no matter what was playing......

Lawdog Dago Dom Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Napoleon Dynamite. After 10 minutes I wanted to go back to Blockbuster and demand a refund. I guy I worked midnight shift with at the time thought it was funny as hell. Saw it again years later on TBS. Still sucked after 10 minutes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bone Tomahawk was gruesome. But... Had they put it out as a Horror Western, we would have been more prepared! The acting, I thought was good. The concept was 'out there'... The interesting part was the film was on a very low budget and filmed in 30ish days. I wish I had plugged my ears as well as shut my eyes in 'the one scene'...I'm sure you know wich one.

Blackwater 53393 Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Anything with Will Ferrel or Sacha Baron Cohen in it will hold a niche on such a list, followed by any western with Fred McMurray in the leading role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I LOVE Le Miserables...except for Cohen as the 'Master'. He took the role far too over the edge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warden Callaway Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 I'm sure many if not most will groan at this one. But I think it the perfect western. It managed to cram in about the whole spectrum of movie themes. It's got white hat good guys, black hat bad guys, stagecoach holdups, cattle rustling, ranch owners feuding, sinister crime boss, rancher's daughter being forced to marriage with sinister crime boss, jilted bar maid, shootouts, chases on horseback, singing cowboy, comic sidekicks, saloon fights, knock down drag outs between hero and villain.

Whiskey Hicks Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 A guilty pleasure of mine is the Street Fighter live action movie from ‘93, Raul Julia’s last performance he took for his kids. The man hams it up and steals the whole movie as a melodramatic dictator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carolina Sorillo Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 My sister-in-law told us how GREAT "Talladega Nights" was. After 5 minutes I turned it off and NEVER took her suggestion for a movie again! Then I found out she and her husband love McDonalds and think Cracker Barrel is nasty. That solidified my notion of her being a total moron! 90% of the westerns made after Tombstone are not worth the film they wasted making them. I refuse to watch almost anything with Steve Martin in it. I can't stand the way he over-acts everything. CS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackwater 53393 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 You watch a Steve Martin movie to see his overacting. You have to understand that he is making fun of the entire premise! That is his shtick! If you don’t like his take on things then you won’t like his movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
