This beguiling, uber-cheap political thriller startled us, even as two seasoned bad movie aficionados. This is a real stunner, epically awful and should be included in anyone’s Top 10 list of the worst films of all time.

It “defies description, is extremely inept, an espionage thriller with no thrills and a mise en scene of a Mexican soap opera.”

This stars the legendary Swede Bo Svenson (The Inglorious Bastards, the original) and French kickboxer Olivier Gruner.

Roger Ebert said of Battlefield Earth: “it is like taking a bus trip with someone who has needed a bath for a long time. It’s not merely bad; it’s unpleasant in a hostile way.”

Battlefield Earth, we feel, has been uncharitably dumped into the dung heap that is: “worst films of all time.”

However, it is never dull and actually holds up quite well! We thought we’d rhapsodize about the notorious flop’s finer points, in this episode of the Really Awful Movies Podcast. Given the choice of revisiting this over say, Manos: The Hands of Fate, we’ll take the embarrassed Mssers Whitaker and Travolta any day.

Grilled rat on the house!

Condemned to see The Condemned.

Move over Running Man/Hunger Games /Battle Royale. It’s a tournament to the death (last man standing set free) involving convicts, unwittingly starring in a bad reality TV show. And this is also a bad movie.

It features twin growlers, Stone Cold Steve Austin and Vinnie Jones. That’s a lot of growling and a lot of squinting. As a bonus, there’s lots of corny stereotyping.

We picked this up in Toronto’s Koreatown and we’re glad we did. So many questions, such as, under whose authority can convicted killers be released? That of a TV producer? What kind of jurisprudence is this? Hear how we survived…The Condemned!
