Jeffrey Jones eats this movie

She took his eggs.

I agree, Jeffrey Jones is the reason (the only reason) to see Howard the Duck, his over-the-top hammy performance is one for the ages, it's absolutely hilarious when he starts becoming the Dark Overlord. Pure cheese.

The rest of the movie is a total dud, but Jones was good stuff.

1986 was a busy year for Jones, with three major roles, two theatrical, one TV-based. First up was a villainous turn in the epic misfire sci-fi comic book comedy Howard the Duck.

I’ve never said “What were you thinking?” more emphatically to a movie’s enablers than to George Lucas for this. A twenty-seven year old duck (yes, the aquatic bird) from the planet Duckworld (whoa, clever pun) who reads views Playduck is literally just thrown from his Duckworld residence to Cleveland, Ohio. No explanation, just violently rocketed through the universe in his lounging clothes to a Rust Belt city. He saves Lea Thompson from muggers using duck-themed martial arts, despite being portrayed as a slob back on Duckworld.

Jones plays a scientist who is possessed by the “Dark Overlord of the Universe” who tries to enact a nefarious plot involving dimensions and “neutron disintegration”. Howard stops him, all the while chomping on a cigar. It’s is atrocious, let me say. Critics described the movie as being a “hopeless mess”, as giving a “gargantuan headache”, and swept the Razzies, winning seven (7!) times. Also it was one of the costliest bombs of all time. While Thompson’s appearance stung a bit, well alot, Jones’ didn’t adversely affect too much.
