Get your popcorn and grab your nuts. Get your beer and reach for your mutton. Whip up some chocolate moose and slice up the head cheese. Yes folks, time to find the remote and hit the TiVo button because it's movie time at the OFST!!

Some of the worst movies and/or movie titles ever released will be playing here for our collective amusements.

I can't believe that no one has listed "The Postman!" I would rate that one third, behind both "Leanord Pt.6" and "Faranheit 911"

Now, here's a joke for you all:

There was this little guy sitting in a bar, drinking, minding his own business when all of a sudden this great big guy comes in and --WHACK!! -- knocks him clean off the bar stool and onto the floor. The big guy says, "That was a karate chop from Korea."

The little guy thinks "GEEEZ," but he gets back up on the stool and starts drinking again when all of a sudden --WHACK-- the big guy knocks him down AGAIN and says, "That was a judo chop from Japan."

So the little guy has had enough of this... He gets up, brushes himself off and quietly leaves. The little guy is gone for an hour or so when he returned. Without saying a word, he walks up behind the big idiot and --Bong!!!-- bangs the big guy off his stool, knocking him out cold!!!

The little guy looks at the bartender and says, "When he comes to, tell him that was a crowbar from Walmart."

For sheer "silly", I nominate 1)Dances with Wolves ,and 2)Waterworld.

Good movie, bad backstage story (from a John Wayne bio I read). Rock Hudson was putting the blast on the Duke during the filming of this movie. Eeeewwwww!!!!

A young and gallant Peter Graves stars in a extraterrestrial nightmare of the nuclear age. While flying over a routine atomic test in Nevada, Dr. Douglas Martin (Graves) spots a strange fireball on the ground. Suddenly, his plane loses control and crashes; the pilot is killed, but Martin survives, totally unharmed. A medical examination uncovers a mysterious scar on his chest, yet Martin has no recollection of the scar or the aftermath of the crash. His ordeal becomes even more perplexing when he inexplicably steals top-secret information from his military colleagues and delivers it to a cavernous area near the test site. Under restraint and injected with truth serum, Martin recalls the impossible truth: he was saved by a squadron of aliens with far superior intellects and monstrously bulging eyes! What's worse, the invaders are mutating insects and reptiles into gigantic carnivores in their bid to conquer the Earth! Killers From Space was directed by W. Lee Wilder (brother of Billy) who also produced Phantom From Space (1953), The Snow Creature (1954) and Manfish (1956).

If Battlefield Earth weren't so technically inane, it would have been OK. The Harrier jets that have been stored without maintenance for 10000 years that fly without any mechanical work was about as laughable as anything gets in the movies.

In July my parents celebrated their 50th Anniversary. This month my sister celebrates her 30th and my brother celebrates his 20th. In honor of the momumental accomplishments, I present the only song that sums up this occasion



Happy Anniversary Happy Anniversary Happy Anniversary
HAAAA-PEE Anniversary...!

Looking back, I know you guys said it wasn't easy... but the upside is that the stories are always a hoot at the family gatherings.

Experiments turn to treachery when mad scientist Suzuki needs a test subject for his newest serum that can radically alter humans. His chance arrives when American reporter Larry Standford stops by for an interview and Suzuki secretly infects the reporter. With the formula coursing through his veins, Standford begins to feel his moods change and in a startling scene discovers an eye growing out of his shoulder. Another creature is literally growing inside of him, driving him to commit a series of murders. Completely transformed into a two-headed monster, he returns to Suzuki's laboratory. Their confrontation builds to a fiery climax at the mouth of a volcanic inferno. Once seen, The Manster is hard to forget, containing a gruesome gallery of monsters and memorable special effects.

I hate to ask, but what does "putting the blast on the Duke" mean????

Good one. The following are two movies that were not parodies...Tremors and Tremors II... but they should have been parodies

Best way to watch a bad movie is in a language you don't understand (with no subtitles)
