Worst Movies Worst of the Worst Part 8 Review

IT'S THE WORST MOVIES  WORST OF THE WORST PART 8.  They said it couldn't be done.  They thought no person could sit through so many worthless and awful movies and live to tell about them.  Well not only have I survived years of torture but I'm on a mission to help others avoid wasting their time watching garbage like the movies I will mention.   

Sure I'd like a special medal, lots of money and a  park named after me in honor of my public service, but a few people clicking the helpful vote button will do for now.

 Killer Party (1986)  Had an extended Paul Bartel cameo in it.   He made a couple of interesting films like Eating Raoul and appeared in several odd and sometimes good movies.  Unfortunately he would also show up in the bottom of the barrel drek like this.   You get a touch of sex and a little gore in the by the numbers slasher movie where a bunch of Sororioty girls spend a night in a haunted house in order to join up but there's a killer on the loose and... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

 Lambada (1990) Director: Joel Silberg
Starring: J. Eddie Peck, Melora Hardin, Shabba-Do, Ricky Paull Goldin, Basil Hoffman, Dennis Burkley, Keene Curtis, Rita Bland

Here's a film that is ever so slightly better then the other quickly made film (Forbidden Dance) that was made to cash in on the blink and you missed it Lambada dance craze (that never actually clicked or took off and was over before any of the quickly made movies were released). That means on a scale of 0 to 10 this one is .001. It takes place in a high school where all the students look to be in their mid 20s to 40s. J Eddie Peck is a conservative teacher in a rich kid Beverly Hills high school but at night he's a sexy Latino dancer in an East L.A. night club. He sets up a private classroom in a vacant warehouse called Galaxy High and tutors ghetto teens into getting their GED. Eventually the different worlds of High School and teacher of Lambada dancing meet. Except for a couple of decently choreographed dance scenes there's nothing worth seeing here.   If you ever were to be forced to watch it, notice  how Peck's facial hair changes from one scene to another and sometimes within the same scene.

 Leonard Part 6 (1987)
Director: Paul Weiland Starring: Bill Cosby, Tom Courtenay, Joe Don Baker, Moses Gunn, Pat Colbert, Gloria Foster, Victoria Rowell

The really good news is that there was never a Leonard Part 1 through 5 or thankfully a Part 7 either. The bad news... this movie. The plot? A band of animals starts killing top secret agents, so retired spy, Bill Cosby, is called back into action. The product placement of COKE is ridiculously obvious. As the film opened Bill Cosby went on talk shows and told audiences not to go see this movie. Since Cosby wrote and produced the movie.. I think if for some reason you are tempted to try to sit through this one... you should just rent NIGHT OF THE LEPUS instead (a baaaad movie with giant bunny rabbits).

 The Loch Ness Horror (1982) A week after I saw this one I  barely remembered there were some poachers runnin' around in the woods and every so often they get killed by a monster you don't really see.  Finally you get a quick glance of something rubbery... You watch it and tell me if I've got this one straight or not. Better yet... don't. It's from Larry Buchanan who began his career remaking cheap films with half the budget they were originally made for.  He made bad movies in 1962 and was still making bad ones in 1982....  At least he was consistent.


 Look Who's Talking Too (1990)
Director: Amy Heckerling Starring: John Travolta, Kirstie Alley, Olympia Dukakis, Elias Koteas, Twink Caplan, Gilbert Gottfried, voices of Bruce Willis, Roseanne Barr, Damon
Wayans

Look Who's Talking was a surprise hit. It wasn't particular good, but it had a few laughs and Travolta gave a charming performance.  In this horrible follow-up the baby with an attitude who talks just like Bruce Willis (because Bruce Willis did the baby's voice) is joined in his adventures with a wisecracking little sister (voiced by Roseanne Barr) and best friend (Damon Wayans) is added the mix. The plot has mis-matched couple John Travolta and Kirstie Alley adding a baby girl to the family and then bickering and fighting with each other while the little talking tykes do an unfunny play by play commentary. The baby's mouth moves but is not even close to being in sync with the dialogue voiced by Willis and Barr. And if you aren't annoyed by all of this enough already you get a Gilbert Gottfried cameo...too.

Look Who's Talking Now (1993)
Director: Tom Ropelewski
Starring: John Travolta, Kirstie Alley, Olympia Dukakis, David Gallagher, Tabitha Lupien, Lysette Anthony. Voices of Danny DeVito and Diane Keaton

This third installment literally went to the dogs. Now that the children were old enough to speak for themselves, the producers felt the same gimmick that had worked so well in the first film (hearing the thoughts of things you don't expect to speak) would work featuring the newly adopted family dogs. They were seriously wrong. As the dog voices, Danny DeVito and Diane Keaton seem to be competing to see who can be the most unfunny. Video stores should be required to check if potential renters of these two features are gun owners. By the midway point of #2, you may be inclined to want to shoot the TV screen, but by the end of #3, you may want to turn the gun on yourself. Watch with extreme caution and with the safety on. These sequels  are pure torture to sit through. Let's hope there's not a fourth film featuring discussions between the family's kitchen appliances and fish. VHS only.

 Manos - The Hands of Fate (1966)
Director: Hal P. Warren Starring: Tom Nayman, Diane Mahree, Hal P. Warren, John Reynolds

This has long been known as a terrible movie and was given the "Mystery Science Theater 3000." Treatment.  I will not dispute that.  However even with the MST 3000 treatment you can tell this movie is not just awful on all levels, acting, writing, directing, special effects but it is also very very boring. So don't watch this turkey without the MST 3000 treatment or you'll be very, very sorry. It was shot for about 19,000 dollars on a shakily held 16mm camera. The plot revolves around a family confronted by a satanic cult. There's the Satan character who can't stop laughing, the hounds of hell who look like mangy dogs with big ears glued on them and Torgo the henchman with the really big knee-caps telling us he's working for Satan. Now you know.
