A METRIC AMERICA – (1978) – Category: A classically campy educational and/or safety short In the late 1970’s the notion that the United States was going to convert to the metric system by 1980 was being pushed. This thought was causing a panic of almost Y2K proportions as government bodies and the Continue reading

Well, the latest bad movie I’m reviewing comes to us from Hong Kong, which has provided the world with the notorious Lewd Lizard movies as well as the bizarre killer fetus sub-genre. For more bad movie reviews click here: https://glitternight.com/bad-movies/

ROBO-ZOMBIES (1986) – Category: Enjoyably bad but not fun-bad enough for my highest rating This film comes to us from Hong Kong, the home of some of the wildest and most outrageously violent films ever made. Many people in the U.S. are unaware that there are actually movies in the world that are so envelope- pushing with their violence and other adult themes that they can’t even be shown on pay-cable channels here.
That list of films would include many of Hong Kong’s “Category 3” movies as well as the infamous Italian cannibal films from the 70’s and 80’s and the occassional wild gem from other parts of the world, with Indonesia’s Mystics In Bali leading the way. All of that being said, Robo-Zombies is nowhere near to being Category 3, but is mild enough for most bad movie fans, who will love it for all the right reasons. Let’s start with Continue reading

No, not The Werewolf Of Washington, which is a whole other movie, but The Werewolf of Woodstock, site of the famous multi-day music festival in 1969 New York. Enjoy this atrocious attempt at a rock’n’roll horror film. And for more bad movie reviews click here: https://glitternight.com/bad-movies/
THE WEREWOLF OF WOODSTOCK (1972) – Category: Bad enough and with a classically weird premise but not fun-bad enough for my highest rating
This made for tv movie presents the weirdest variation on the werewolf legend this side of Curse of the Queerwolf. The story begins the night after the conclusion of 1969′s Woodstock music festival when a grumpy old man who hates rock music and young people goes to the litter-strewn remnants of the outdoor concert looking for “hippies” to harass.
This act is even dumber than it first sounds when you consider that just a bit earlier he and another resident of Woodstock were discussing how all the concertgoers are “long gone”. While trashing some of the metal stage equipment Continue reading

For some variety I’ll do my usual Monday feature, the Cool-Named Team Of The Day, tomorrow instead and go with my fresh new addition to my bad movie page. It’s the role Humphrey Bogart wanted everyone to forget, as he invades Bela Lugosi/George Zucco territory to portray an undead mad scientist in the enjoyably campy film The Return Of Dr X. And for more Bad Movie entries click here: https://glitternight.com/bad-movies/
THE RETURN OF DR X (1939) – Category: Enjoyably campy bad movie elevated by kitsch-value in the casting. Yes, it’s the famous “Humphrey Bogart as a zombie mad scientist” movie. The tale goes that Jack Warner inflicted this role on gangster-flick star Bogart as punishment for Continue reading

Well, folks, I updated my Bad Movie page with yet another review of an under-the-radar cinematic turkey. This one is a sci-fi/ exploitation hybrid that features plotting and counter-plotting by German and Japanese officers and scientists as World War Two draws to a close. Don’t miss any of the campy fun. For more bad movie reviews click here: https://glitternight.com/bad-movies/

Yet another of those bad movies that has such a bizarre premise that many believe the film to be an urban legend, like the turkey-monster flick Blood Freak. Get ready for a deaf vampire, a very odd witch and the most joyously goofy hunchback in cinematic history. And for more bad movies click here: https://glitternight.com/bad-movies/
DEAFULA (1975) – Category: A neglected bad movie classic that deserves a Plan 9-sized cult following
Good intentions go horribly wrong in this film. Much like with Blood Freak, there are people who insist this film is just an urban legend and that it doesn’t really exist. Those people are wrong again. This horror film is in black and white and, as the title suggests, the Continue reading

A goofy-looking were-jackal, an undead Egyptian princess and the fattest mummy in history! No, they’re not tonight’s Jeopardy contestants, they’re the main characters of another hilariously bad movie. From 1969 it’s The Mummy And The Curse Of The Jackals.

THE MUMMY AND THE CURSE OF THE JACKALS (1969) – Category: A neglected bad movie classic that deserves a Plan 9-sized cult following Depending on which film book you read this movie either did or did not have any theatrical release but thankfully it’s available on video. Part of the bad movie fun is provided by how poorly lit some scenes are, even though that prevents us from getting better looks at 1960′s Las Vegas, where the story takes place. In this film Anthony Eisley portrays an archaeologist who, hilariously enough, can’t Continue reading

Here’s the latest review I added to my Bad Movie page. It’s ALABAMA’S GHOST from 1973 by Fred Hobbs, the same man who brought us The Godmonster Of Indian Flats. If you want more reviews of under-the- radar bad movies click here: https://glitternight.com/bad-movies/
ALABAMA’S GHOST – (1973) – Category: Bad enough and with an enjoyably weird premise, but not fun-bad enough for my highest rating This film has vampires … No, wait! There’s MORE! They’re NAZI vampires … No, wait! There’s still more! They’re Nazi vampires from outer space! And they’re trying to take over the world by using “Raw Zeta” and an Afican American stage magician called Alabama as a “human hypno- microphone”.
