So bad it's good

This movie is unintentionally hilarious. VI was popular for about 8 months back in 1990-91 and this "film" was pushed into production to catch that heat before it burned out...which it did very shortly thereafter.

This movie is a pretty good snapshot of the early 90s, that is to say gross and lacking any element of charm.

I agree. It is so cheesy , poorly made early 90s flick that looks better after it aged.

So bad it's.... no it's just really bad. I get secondhand embarrassment from even thinking about it.

Not every movie is automatically fitting of this criteria because this movie didn't even try. Not even once.

I must admit, I found myself saying "yup, yup" for months after watching....and I'm in my forties.

It was awful, not even a "so bad it's good" film for me. It made Robert Van Winkle look like a complete bafoon also.

If I had to choose one thing about it then it was the Rozalla track they had in it.

I'm glad I avoided this movie. Even after all of these years, I still refuse to watch it.

JonTron recently did a review of it. I'm glad he ripped it apart. It truly looks atrocious.
