We now wrap up this extended bad movie binge with part 10. Fishing now takes priority over lying on the couch frying what’s left of my brain on public domain flicks courtesy of streaming services Tubi, Freevee, Crazee, Sickee, and Pervee. Not to mention Plex, Yecch, Blecch, Sploing and Froont.

New Mr. Vampire: This is what happens when the Cannon film people get hold of something. Adds the attack casket and fun with electricity to the traditional Chinese hopping vampires. ***

Revolver: Incomprehensible Guy Ritchie flick. No fun at all. Pass.

Revenge of the Ninja. This is precisely what it appears to be, no more, no less. I ironed shirts while this played. It was very restful. *

Deliria aka Stage Fright: Not the Hitchcock movie. Actors getting picked off by a killer kook wearing a bird costume. With plucky heroine and ambiguous ending. **

The Bad Ass Trilogy:

Bad Ass: Danny Trejo cleans up the streets. Forced hilarity ensues, kind of. **

Bad Ass 2: Dannys Trejo and Glover clean up the streets. Forced hilarity struggles to ensue. *

Bad Asses on the Bayou: The Two Dannys plus John Amos foil a kidnapping and clean up the streets. Forced hilarity is euthanized before it has a chance to ensue. The only reason to watch this is sheer stubbornness, after sitting through the first two. A grudging single star. *

Slaughter High: From the Golden Age of Crap. Made with British actors but set in an American high school. This isn’t a problem, since the flick is so stupid it could be in Urdu and not suffer. Gets a star for sheer nerve. *

Silent Madness: Another 80s entry, and the best film ever shot in Nyack, N.Y.  Cast includes some names regular people may have seen in normal movies. Starts off nicely with death by vise grip, but then a whole lot of plot intervenes. Really bad mise-en-scene. Le pfui. *

Something’s gone kerblooey with the spread sheet so we’re back to plain old typing. I truly think we’d be better off blowing up the internet and going back to the manual Olivetti.

Exterminator: Vigilante flick. Vietnam vet vs lame “Ghetto Ghouls.” With fat naked NJ state senator. A parable for our times. ***

Exterminator 2: Same vigilante vs extremely festive gang leader. With souped-up garbage truck. Another parable for our times. Or is that a metaphor? ***

Executioner 2: Blink and you’ll miss the serial killer.*

Truck Turner: Isaac Hayes cleans up the streets and gets his girl a kitten. With gratuitous nekkidity and fried chicken. Iron Coil nomination. ****

Maniac Cop: “Maniac” means a lot of things. “Boring” isn’t one of them. Pass.

Gator: Burt Reynolds’ raffish charm can’t overcome lousy script and indifferent direction. One star for 70s nostalgia. *

Astounding She-Monster: “The Lost Weekend” with radiation. **

Force of One: There are three Chuck Norrises: Clean-shaven Chuck, mustache only Chuck, and fully engulfed with facial hair Chuck. This is the mustache only version. *

Exterminators of the Year 3000: Aka “Mildly Miffed Max.” **

Graduation Day: Somebody is killing the track team. Somebody is also playing “Gangster Rock” for seven minutes of screen time, which is the true horror. **

Time Cop	Terminator rip-off with Jean Claude Van Damme, and Ron Silver dies twice at the same time **
Kill Kane	Teacher’s family killed, teacher goes on rampage. Meh. *
Ruby	Bizarro supernatural crime drama that takes place at the drive-in ***
Shrunken Heads	From the entire Elfman family to you, this incredibly strange flick should have made “Eat da Whizzo” a national catchphrase, but didn’t. A heartfelt four coils and an Iron Coil nomination. ****
I Come in Peace	Except Dolph Lundgren doesn’t, no matter how many times he says it. His other line is “arrgh.” *
Masters of the Universe	Apparently this was the start of a big comic book/video whatever franchise. Pretty tedious *
Brotherhood of Satan	If Antonioni got drunk and made a movie about Satanic hijinks in the Land of Enchantment it would look like this **
Return of the Vampire	Featuring the cinema’s only stern lecture given to a werewolf. *
Challenge of the Tiger	With Bruce Le, get it? Also cinema’s only kung fu bullfight and slo-mo topless tennis. A solid four-coiler, and Iron Coil nominee.****
For Your Height Only	Imelda Marcos hosted a Filipino Film Festival to pump up the local industry and say to the world “We’re not just good for bimbos behind bamboo bars flicks.” And this spy thriller, starring the 2’9″ Weng Weng, won the damn thing. Four heartfelt coils and an Iron Coil shoo-in. ****
The Impossible Kid	Sequel to above, and almost as funny. ***

Supermen Against the Orient	Non-stop weirdness from Hong Kong-Italian producers *
Super Stooges vs. The Wonder Women	As above, slightly more coherent, kind of fun if you’re strung out on cold meds **
Naked Vengeance	Now we’re talking. Babe from “Dallas” gets her own rape/revenge flick, and does her own stunts nekkid. Every relevant body part rolls, if you get my drift. Appalling in every way. **** and an Iron Coil nomination.
Fatal Flying Guillotine	These FFGs look like flower pots. The aspect ratio keeps chaning. Avant-garde or inept? I’m betting on the latter. *
The Devil’s Three aka Mean Business	Black crime kingpin’s daughter gets kidnapped, and it’s Cleopatra Wong to the rescue. Unfortunately she’s no Cleopatra Jones *
Bloodsuckers from Outer Space	Just because you’ve got no budget is no reason to half-ass it. Lame Psycho shower scene rip-off er homage. Pfft.
Surf Nazis Must Die	Unbearably stupid. Avoid.
Evil That Men Do	Bronson takes a break from being a retired assassin to kill all the bad guys in ingenious ways. Too much plot. *
Lone Wolf McQuade	Chuck Norris plus David Carradine means CACA with a capital C. ***
Borderline	Bronson plus Bruno Kirby **
Delta Force 2	Low budget sequel with alarmingly festive villain *
Delta Force	Muslims hijack airliner, Lee Marvin sends Chuck Norris to kill everybody **
The Human Tornado	Sequel to Dolemite. Worth it for hallucinatory sex scene alone. Exceptionally weird and stupid. ***
Dolemite	Amateurish but amusing *
Dont Go in the Woods	Well, don’t. With excellent backwoods critter. Not to be confused with 2010 flick of same name. *
The Return of Superfly	Superfly played by different actor. Same stuff. Kinda nasty actually *
The Executioner II	Joke’s on me, there is no Executioner I. A completely deranged flick, possible Iron Coil contender. ****
Tango & Cash	Big budget CACA. Apparently lots of fighting over “artistic” matters during production. Neither fish, definitely foul. *

The Octagon	Chuck Norris, Lee van Cleef. Too much plot. **
Hands of Death	Clumsy scientist in the desert. Nice ***
River of Death	With Herbert Lom, Robert Vaughn and Donald Pleasence. Nazis in jungle. **
10 to Midnight	Bronson vs sex killer. Bronson wins and gets all Dirty Harry **
Kung Fu Hustle	Tremendous achievement. Funny, smart, inventive. So why am I reviewing it? ****
Drunken Master	Jackie Chan’s first big hit. **
Shock Em Dead	DTV with awful music and Traci Lords, wearing clothes. *
Hard Rock Zombies	Nazis, dwarves, zombies and awful rock music. Enjoyment depends on your tolerance for the last item. *
The Arena	Pam Grier and Margaret Markova ride again, this time as gladiators. **
Return of Count Yorga	Count Yoga would be funnier.*
Burial Ground aka Zombi 3	Why do Italians spell “zombie” without the “e”?Very gross, plus incest **
Beyond the Living Dead	Strange goings-on at the run-down estate. *
Good Guys Wear Black	Chuck Norris’ breakthrough film. Did you know the desert comes right down to the Pacific between Baltimore and Washington? *
Phoenix: The Warrior	Road Warrior with girls *
Barbarian Queen	Possibly the highest breast count in any non-porn flick **
Eye for an Eye	Norris and Mako, and C. Lee, plus guy gets squished by construction equipment **
Sorority Babes in the Slimeball Bowlarama	Jive talking imp and brief full frontal nudity **
Maneater of Hydra	Vampire trees*

Grizzly	Jaws rip-off *
Curse of Bigfoot	Backwoods mummy, not Yeti
Attack of the Puppet People	Mad scientist/puppet guy shrinks people. Moderately diverting **
Women of the Prehistoric Planet	with Angel from Rockford Files *
Reefer Madness	rare instance of colorization working out*
Crater Lake Monster	with Action Sheriff and goobers*
Laser Mission	Kung Fu, Commies, Ernest Borgnine and no lasers*
Dr WHo Daleks’ Invasion Earth 2150 AD		Peter Cushing. Despised by Dr Who fans. Very polite aliens **
Vengeance of the Dead	DTV slop, small town goobers, evil force, boring
Strange Impersonation	Rare mad scientist/film noir combo. Good stuff. **
Manos Returns	Same basic story, very slow driving *
Fungicide	Fantastic stick fights ***
Blood of Draculas Castle	Vampires in Ariona desert. Really lame*
Theater of Death	Legit flick with Christopher Lee, Julian Glover. No Bloodsucking Freaks but it’ll do **
Sword and Sorcerer	Character named Titus Krump earns one star*
Double Dragon	The old two halves of the powerful talisman trick. Kung fu. *
Hangar 18	Kolchak meets Man from U.N.C.L.E. in space **
Big Bust Out	Bimbos Behind Bamboo Bars **
They Call Me Macho Woman	Troma cheez *
Big Bird Cage	Pam Grier busting out all over in the jungle ****

Girls from Thunder Strip	Slower pussycats, not enough killing *
Master of the Flying Guillotine	If you have to see one martial arts flick this should be it ****
Zero Woman R	Not ZW:Red Handcuffs. Similar story, no dubious underpants. *
Night of the Werewolf	Incoherent, which is fine. Boring, which is not fine.
Savage Sisters	Gloria Hendry instead of Pan Grier. Same jungle. **
Shogun Assassin	Extremely confusing, even for a martial arts flick
Rolling Thunder	William Devane and Tommy Lee Jones kill all the bad guys and advise seniors about adding gold to their portfolios **
Black Mama White Mama	Truth in advertising in the jungle, with Pam Grier **
Coffy	Pam Grier cleans up the hood ****
Foxy Brown	Pam Grier cleans up a different hood, not as well ***
Friday Foster	Pam Grier cleans up Washington, unconvincingly *
The Hot Box	Bimbos Behind Bamboo Bars, again *
From Beyond	Re-Animator Lite **
Caged Fury	The fury pretty much stays caged *
Circle of Iron	All-time classic of Bad Cinema. You owe it to yourself. ****
Mr Majestyk	Brsonson x Elmore Leonard = ***
The Mechanic	Coming of Age assassin **
Kinjite: Forbidden Subjects	Bronson vs. pedophiles. Pedos lose **
Forced Vengeance	Chuck Norris vs. Chinese mob. Chinese mob loses. **
Red Sun	Spaghetti samurai with Bronson, Alain Delon, Ursula Andress and Toshiro Mifune ***
Spider Baby	Extremely weird. Lon Chaney Jr. takes care of a family of mutants. ***
Trog	Joan Crawford hits rock bottom. Avoid.
Crippled Masters	One has no arms, the other has no legs. *
Sorceress	Corman Conan rip-off, with girls *
JDs Revenge	Blaxploitation x ghost story, Diverting **

Radical Jack	Billy Ray Cyrus as Saladin, if the latter had a mullet. First rate fermented curd, and an Iron Coil nominee. ****
Lady Mobster	Susan Lucci breaks the organized crime glass ceiling
Gamera the Invincible	Like Godzilla, but a turtle **
Jack Frost	Psycho killer’s evil soul takes over a snow man, puzzles law enforcement *
Godmonster of Indian Flats	Mutant sheep embryo, civil rights and “banjo dust” **
Rock and Roll Nightmare	With Jon Mikl Thor and the Tritonz. Spectacularly stupid **
Deadly Instincts	Alien terrorizes Boston college campus in Scotland. Kinds funny *
Mind Ripper	With Lance Henrikson, the latter-day John Carradine *
Terror by Night	aka Strangeness on a Train. OK period piece *
The Apple	Iron Coil nominee. Israeli-German disco sci-fi Armageddon musical with literal deus ex machina ending. Indescribably hideous. ****
Scared to Death	Stupid scientist allows mutant to escape. Hilarity ensues. Good mutant costume. *
The Hideous Sun Demon	With the most determined cop in film history. *
Maniac	What passed for a PSA in 1934 Vague E.A Poe tie-in. Scenery chewed up, spat our, and rolled into blunts. Plus Depression-era nekkidity.**
The Journey: Absolution	Incoherent end of the world drama with large doses of fit young men in their underwear.
Replica	James Nguyen vs. “Vertigo.” Like “Birdemic”, so amateurishly awful it’s fascinating. *

The Magic Sword	1962 take on St George/Dragon. Good hag *
Werewolf	1995 straight to video. Gratuitous archaeology. *
Stitches	2012 straight to video. Tedious.
Maximum Revenge	With the great John La Zar. If this is maximum revenge we’d hate to see minimum. **

Feeders	Greatest aliens ever. Also Extreme Method Acting. *
Feeders 2	The rare sequel that’s siller than the original **

Giant from the Unkown	Zombie alien conquistador. Bizarre. *
Phantom Creeps	Feature stitched together from a serial. WIth Bela Lugosi.**

Kill and Kill Again	Deranged sequel to “Kill or Be Killed. “Think “Circle of Iron” with a little “Mandingo” and “1984” for seasoning. ***
Plan 9 from Outer Space	Always mentioned, rarely matched for sheer absurdity. Gets boring though. **

Yor, Hunter of the Future	Outstanding sword and sorcery epic with minimal plot to get in the way of the story, and breasts. ****
Psychotronic Man	Rocky the barber discovers he can kill with his steely gaze. *

Since the start of the new year I have been on a horrible cinema roll. Here is the first batch.

I put it in a spreadsheet because it seemed like it would simplify things. It didn’t.

An asterix * equals one coil.

No asterix means there is no reason to watch the film. You can thank me later.

One asterix (or coil) means there is something entertaining about it. Might not be much.

Two coils (or asterixes) means there is something entertaining about the film, plus nekkidity or some other saving grace.

Three astercoils means the film is an oustanding piece of dreck, well worth your time.

A four-coiler (or asterixer) is a CACA Classic. Four coils comes with an automatic nomination for the Iron Coil for Lifetime Achievement.

Sons of Hercules	Adventures of Arrghules. Seriously. *
Treasure of the Amazon	They find it eventually.

Astro Zombies	Incomprehensible but fun. *
Viva Knieval	Evel Knieval stars as himself and does cool things. **
Ator the Fighting Eagle	Sword and sorcery epic with incest undertones — but no eagle. **
Final Justice	AKA “The Maltese Fat Slob.” Joe Don Baker “stars” in this “action” “movie.” **
Star Raiders	Saber Raine rescues the princess. Suffers from modern tech. Would have been much better as a grainy 70s flick. *

Warriors of the Wasteland	With Fred Williamson, for Green Bay Packers fans of a certain age. *
The Power	Demonic possession via Aztec doll.
