Like Xanadu, it's so bad it's bad.
Never watched it but think it's available on-line for free. Not sure who would pay to watch it. But I've seen enough bad movies, I just didn't want to waste another 90 mins on this one.
Because it's a British "comedy" why no famous names in it!
No wonder it sunk without a trace.
Thanks for that, I might check that film out!
I remember once aged around 12, there was a bully around that age that picked on a younger kid round his house, when he had a party. The kid was 10 and his folks had a small pool in the back and we were all out there horsing around. The bully was 12 and everyone felt he ruined the party and the kid told him off and to leave. He pulled a pocket knife on the kid and wow, everyone just froze up. The 10 year old did karate and kicked the bully on the side of the head. He dropped his knife, went owwwwwwwwwwwww and fell into the pool. He couldn’t swim so the 10 year old kid had to help him out and the put all the bullies clothes in the washing. His mom came round hours later to pick the bully up, who was just in a towel, socks and slipper, shivering in the garage, where the washing machine was.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
But that is mean, Grace is hot with a capital H.
It's pretty sleazy but I love it. Let this site know what you think of it, there is debate as to which of the two is a better film but they, it and The Naked Kiss, would make a great double bill to watch in a flea-pit cinema. If they even exist anymore.
Shock Corridor is...ummm...bizarre too. Don't think its a proto One flew over the cuckoo's nest. This one is just weird!
Putlockers have this and his other films.
Try Shock Corridor first and then this one. Both have strong cult followings.
Hope I haven't spoilt if by giving away too much of the plot.
Both are 'B' movies though with terrible dialogue!
Manos the hand of fate (1966)
Apparently the worst film ever made!
Anyone here seen this one?

It only took $30 or $20 at the box office, depending on if you count the $10 refund paid to 2 of those who watched it.

Marketing disaster, coupled with it being a poor film.
Anyone seen Motherhood (2009), a film that only took £9 at the UK box office!
I wonder if they pair it with Glen or Glenda!
Well it's one of the 100 cult films features in the "bible" of cult movies! I am, of course, referring to Cult Movies (1) by Danny Peary. Like you, he lists the reason it's a cult move but isn't that impressed with it either. It's a dull affair, the songs are hit and miss (definitely more miss) and it's only redeeming feature is Tim Curry. Who has to be cinemas' greatest transvestite. The problem for me is there is just not enough of a story or jokes to sustain a film of this length.
I am Damo Suzuki!
You'll love Detour, how can any film fan not? It's available free on youtube, so fill your boots!
No one would have complained had he got it!
Glad you love it, always wanted to get in touch with cultists of that film.
If you saw it at the cinema, when it came out in 1980 then I salute you!
As far as I can remember, it's only ever been shown once on UK TV, in 1992. I taped it and watched everyday during that Summer...
Agreed. Though can a film contain more B movie clichés than Detour?
It's fun and the protagonist has to be the biggest loser in the whole history of cinema.
You ever see a guy more resigned to his fate than him?
Hope you enjoyed them all!
Guess at future meetings no one is going to sit in that seat!
More a case of "No, after you..."
