A stinking pile of vile putrescent crap!
Feb. 12th, 2005 06:26 pmReign in Darkness. So vile! Now, don't get me wrong, I have a use for a good awful movie from time to time. For example, The Core was predictably awful and enjoyable for it. This was just badness - bad acting, bad effects, horrible narration throughout the whole movie. I lost count of the number of times I said "Thank you, Mr. Exposition." (Notice I haven't even mentioned the "plot" yet?)
It's one of the drawbacks of my movie connection friends. Sure, I get good stuff, unexpected gems like Secondhand Lions, or Femme Fatale (which I watched earlier this week, expected to be bad, but was surprisingly entertained), but I also get crap like that.
Oh well, I'm not their friend because of the movies they give me!
Must cleanse my brain now.

The only exception that I can think of is Citizen Cain, but the Orson Welles was a special case.
