More sci-fi and some spy babes

49. Robot Holocaust (Tim Kincaid, 1986) 2.1 on IMDb



A portentous narration describes how there is one city remaining in "New Terra" after the robots took over - as the camera shows us 1980s New York City, without a trace of effort made to have it look ruined or different. Throughout the early part of the film we get occasional low-angle shots from piles of dirt with just a couple of skyscrapers visible behind them - I guess these are supposed to make us think that we're seeing a "ruined city" or something? That gives you an idea of the amount of imagination and effort that went into this fiasco, conceivably the worst SF film of the last 40 years or so that I've seen - and I've seen a lot. Basically a group of rebels infiltrate the "Power Station" (what a creative name!) to destroy the "Dark One" who is apparently some kind of AI (it's not explained well) who can merge with humans and machines and...I don't know. There's scenes in tunnels, there's a fair amount of beefcake on display (director Kincaid is better known as gay porn star/director Joe Gage), and there's very poor, listless acting, with Angelika Jager giving the standout potential worst-of-all-time performance as the Dark One's principle human servant Valaria. You have to see her to believe her, I really don't know how to describe it. The fight scenes are also among the worst I've ever seen and the under-80 minute film seems well over 2 hours. I could suggest that the color isn't bad - but it's no better than the color in most 80s SF films so I don't think it deserves points for that. I have to give this a 1, and while it's hilarious at moments I think it may be too tedious to really rule in the so-bad-it's-good category.

50. D.E.B.S. (Angela Robinson, 2004) 5.3 on IMDb



Basically a lesbian spy-fantasy with a bunch of gorgeous 20something "DEBS" (I don't remember or care what the acronym stands for) hunting super-bad-girl Jordana Brewster until one of them falls in love with the evil genius. This is very tame and dull stuff, though it does do one interesting thing which is to sort of posit an alternate world in which young nubile schoolgirl-dressed women are the chief law enforcement agents in society - but it really doesn't go anywhere with it and so it all just seems a silly wet dream fantasy in the end. But without any nudity or quality violence, so it's just kind of blah. I like Brewster, even in a cheesy flick like this, and she sure does look good in black, and it's a nice looking film, but I can't give it more than 4.

51. Skyline (Strause brothers, 2010) 4.4 on IMDb

This is more recent and probably more familiar so I'll dispense with it quickly. I saw it described as "Independence Day meets Transformers" which to my mind isn't really accurate, though "Independence Day meets War of the Worlds" is closer to the mark. What the aliens do to people when they invade L.A. (and presumably everywhere else) is kind of interesting and the only slightly original element here - but you don't find that out until the very end. Instead we have a bunch of really dull, incredibly un-developed characters (the 3 women in particular are: a wife/girlfriend, another wife/girlfriend, and an employee/girlfriend - that is literally all we ever know about them) who run around trying to escape being killed for an hour and a half. They're all dull and irritating and I didn't care what happened, and the FX are mediocre (though I guess good given the low budget) and it's an ugly colorless piece of crud. 3 because the ending was vaguely interesting.

52. Space Mutiny (David Winters/Neal Sundstrom, 1988) 2.0 on IMDb



The first thing that will become apparent to anybody who knows their SF - their TV SF - is that the exterior shots/effects of the spaceships in this film are entirely lifted from the original 1970s "Battlestar Galactica". Whether they were stolen or there was a fee paid to use them, I don't know, and the guys on RedLetterMedia who made me aware of this didn't seem to know either. Like Robot Holocaust this is very lazy, cheap filmmaking with those stolen/lifted FX, a couple of recycled very cheap sets for the bridge and other rooms on the spaceship that is our setting, an obvious real factory interior (with sunlight coming through the windows - in space!) being used for the engineering room, etc. At least the title is accurate - security officer John Philip Law mutinies, trying to force the ship to be sent on a new course, and heroic Reb Brown and commander's daughter and doctor Cisse Cameron (Brown's real-life wife) try to stop him. We also have Cameron Mitchell as the cmmander but he doesn't get to do much. The differences between this and Robot Holocaust are instructive: this actually has something of a story, a fairly clear if simple narrative, some acting that isn't bottom-of-the-barrel, and a couple of fight scenes and stunts that are just mediocre, not horrible. So this gets a 2 just for being clearly better than RH in so many ways. Plus Cisse Cameron is very cute and overall this was bad enough to be amusing, and had enough action to not be totally dull. I think it hits the so-bad-it's-good mark pretty well.

53. The Killer Shrews (Ray Kellogg, 1959) 3.8 on IMDb

Another 50s mad scientist (well, he's not really mad, but his creation is) flick that is reasonably well put together, not that poorly acted, but shelled with a really bad rep primarily because of the terrible FX, in this case hand puppets or dressed-up-dogs as the titular giant rodents. Boat captain James Best brings supplies to an island and has to wait out a hurricane, but finds that a couple of scientists (the leader having a lovely daughter of course) have created giant mutant shrews that will eat anything and put all their lives in danger. While there was too much boring conversation early on, and the shrews are indeed idiotic, this does a decent job as an intense narrative if you can forget all the crap. That may not be possible of course, and even a generous rater like me isn't going to give it any higher than a 5.

The MST3K episode of this is one of my all-time favorites.

93. The Killing of Satan (1983) IMDB: 5.0
My Rating: 7
YES! This is the kind of ridiculous shit I need in my life. I don't really know what was happening half the time but it has awesome magic lasers in wizard fights and people beating eat other to death. And Satan. It's there in the title. It's a fun kind of terrible with this one.


94. The Guyver (1991) IMDB: 4.9
My Rating: 5.5
Like an adult Power Rangers on steroids, The Guyver has some entertainingly elaborate creature effects going on even though the plot is hokey nonsense. It's more similar in tone to producer Yuzna's Faust: Love of the Damned than about anything else I can think of. Plus it has Mark Hamill turning into some sort of grotesque worm creature, so there's that.


95. Night of the Demons (2009) IMDB: 4.7
My Rating: 5
While I appreciated what this throwback horror comedy/remake is trying to do, it just reeks of goth and nu metal cheese with effects that just don't cut it for the most part. It's idea of humor is also pretty lacking. But hey, it's the first thing I've seen Edward Furlong in since the 90's.


96. Rats: Night of Terror (1984) IMDB: 4.4
My Rating: 3.5
Well, it's a post-nuke killer rat movie from Bruno Mattei and Claudio "Troll 2" Fragrasso... So... yea. The rats at no point feel even remotely like a threat and the climax is ground to a halt by a lame exposition dump.


97. Neon Maniacs (1986) IMDB: 4.8
My Rating: 5
This was an odd one. I seemed to fluctuate between it being awesome and being one of the most brainlessly stupid things I've ever seen minute to minute. I mean, these mutants have got to be the lamest enemies ever. They can be killed with water, and yet, they still manage to kill like 15 people. I dunno.


98. After Earth (2013) IMDB: 4.9
My Rating: 5
Will Smith and his personality-less kid crash land on Earth after it has been abandoned with Fresh Prince getting injured in crash. Unfortunately that leaves us stuck with Jayden, who is just terrible. I mean, his character is annoying for most of the movie, being whiny and incompetent, and Jayden himself is just a bad actor. The movie does have some nice visuals and Shyamalan has actual talent as a director. But this was just dull.

The special effects are incredibly cheesy and the lead actress suffers from incredibly rehearsed line delivery, but the sets, costumes and props are endlessly imaginative and the filmmakers have managed to scout some great outskirts locations in Italy and Switzerland in which to film their tale.

Trilogy of Danish superhero movies targeted at children around 10 years old. The short runtime and hip presentation make these quite enjoyable. Slight descent in quality, but not that severe.

99. The Velvet Vampire (1971) IMDB: 5.3
My Rating: 4
I can appreciate a sexy vampire movie as much as the next guy, but this oddball meanders too much into hippie dippie new age territory too much for my taste.


100. Survival of the Dead (2009) IMDB: 4.9
My Rating: 4.5
George Romero comes back after the found footage mediocrity of Diary of the Dead to bring us a more straight forward zombie movie led by a bunch of assholes. Another one of these "humans are the real enemies" type of zombie movies, it really doesn't feel very fresh at this point, especially after the umpteenth season of The Walking Dead.

2ND POSSESSION'S A CHARM DOUBLE FEATURE!

101. Amityville II: The Possession (1982) IMDB: 5.4
My Rating: 6.5
102. Exorcist II: The Heretic (1977) IMDB: 3.7
My Rating: 4
While both are follow-ups to noted horror classics, and both deviate in places from their predecessors, Amityville II is the only one that I think offers something worth watching. While the basic story isn't wildly different (and is a pretty straightforward prequel to the original), it does go more over-the-top in places with some graphic effects and zonky camera effects that liven things up (possibly more than the original actually). Exorcist II on the other hand is just all over the place, and while it also attempts to try something different than the original, it's far too messy and goofy, wandering into Africa and giving Regan some kind of brain link with a demon. Exorcist III is a far superior sequel.


103. Transformers: The Last Knight (2017) IMDB: 5.2
My Rating: 3
In general I find the Transformers movies to be loud, chaotic nonsense with a whiplash tone that bounces from deadly serious to tone deaf humor seemingly at random. And this one throws in Arthurian legend elements that just reeks of lazy writing and pointless characters solely paying lip service to previous movies without much actual purpose like John Turturro. Still Wahlberg in the last couple of movies is a vague improvement over Shia (not by much though). When are they gonna stop making these?


104. Scorpion Thunderbolt (1988) IMDB: 4.4
My Rating: 6
Noice! Here we have a ridiculous hack job that splices in footage of Richard Harrison beating the shit out of people randomly demanding to find a snake witch with the original film's plot about a were snake woman that fucks and kills with abandon. It's got psychedelic imagery and a really stupid looking snake costume at the end. Must see for crap cinema fans!


105-109a. Garbage Pail Kids (1987) IMDB: 3.5
My Rating: 3.5
I think there's a reason this Garbage Pail Kids cartoon never actually aired (making it's world debut on DVD over two decades later). It's a really bizarre mix of movie parodies (Indiana Jones, Wizard of Oz, The Fly, etc.) with a level of humor reminiscent of a low rent Mad Magazine, segments starring a group of kids who turn into trash-themed superheroes and random unfunny, fake commercials. Conceptually it's not terribly different than some classic cartoons like Ren & Stimpy and Tiny Toon Adventures but the writing is just so scattered and bad than very little lands with success.


109b. Empire of Ache (1996) IMDB: 5.3
My Rating: 4
Conceptually not a bad idea but way too hammy in places.


109c. The Legend of Hallowdega (2010) IMDB: 5.2
My Rating: 4
Man, Terry Gilliam was really slumming it on this one. It's basically about some paranormal investigators looking into the curse of the Talledega Speedway. Was it built on a burial ground? Is it haunted by a ghost of some kind? Do I give a shit about this lame ad for the Talledega 500 and some random energy drink? Not much, no. I mean, it's well done for what it is, and I guess it helped Gilliam fund Zero Thereom, so at least there's that.


109d. Rifftrax: Measuring Man (1970) IMDB: 3
My Rating: 1 (unriffed), 7 (riffed)
a.k.a. Let's Measure: Using Standard Units
The short itself is wretchedly abysmal, involving a sketchy milk man randomly turning into the lamest superhero ever so he can bring a small child's attention to his "measuring units" dangling from a belt uncomfortably close to his very, tight fitting crotch region. Mike, Keivn and Bill have a ball with this one.

66. Witchblade (2000) 4.9 on IMDb - 3.5/10

The main actress is not that bad, but all others sound bored out of their mind. The atmosphere they were going for was that of The Crow mixed with some film noir, but they only partly achieve this.

If you have a middle-aged man as a superhero, don't put him in a spandex suit. Everything else is also terrible about this.

Tribute to Dorothy Malone, and 80s sword and sorcery

54. 5 Guns West (Roger Corman, 1955) 4.5 on IMDb


RIP Dorothy Malone 1925-2018

While this was released the year before Malone's work in Written on the Wind, which got her an Oscar, she was already something of a star at this point, and I'm really not sure what she was doing in a Corman western. No matter, as with most of the Corman films I've seen this is significantly better than it's rep. Malone isn't introduced until the halfway point, a young woman living with her uncle in an isolated cabin invaded by a group of 5 Confederate criminals/prisoners who have been let go so as to rob a stagecoach for the Lost Cause. Mike Connors and John Lund are the de facto leaders of the 5, and there is tension throughout between them and the other cons, which leads to...well, I won't spoil it but the ending's not exactly a surprise if you've paid attention. Again Corman gives us a strong woman and I don't think it's my imagination that he makes Malone look bigger and tougher than she actually was (5' 6") to help emphasize her superiority over these weak and stupid felons. It's no life-changing film overall but another good example of Corman putting some subtle progressive notions in a cheap genre film, and it's pretty well put together overall, and I'm happy to give it a 7.



I started out my sword & sorcery part of this challenge with [Hawk the Slayer (Terry Marcel, 1980) but it had jumped up to a 5.5 before I re-watched it so it's ineligible. I will point out to myself (the only one reading this, probably) that it interestingly shows a little bit of influence from both Tolkien (large cast of characters & a little bit of a sense of the grandiose) and Howard (lots of sword fighting and a more grungy iron age type setting) - most 80s fantasies on a larger budget tend to follow the Tolkien example a bit more, and the cheap beefcake-cheesecake heavy barbarian stuff is of course more influenced by Howard's immortal "Conan". This is a little above average for what it is but it's pretty tame, PG-ish, and lacks anything really memorable.

55. The Magic Sword (Bert I. Gordon, 1962)) 4.3 on IMDb

Bert I. Gordon - who, like Corman, is still alive in his 90s and has worked recently - is best known for his cheapo monster flicks, so I was surprised to see his name here. This is a film I feel like I saw a long time ago though it may be just a blend of lots of schlock that seems familar. At any rate, we have a handsome knight - well, actually, a handsome adoptive son of a batty sorceress - off on a quest with some other knights (one of whom is secretly EEEVIL) to save the beautiful princess from the evil sorcerer, Basil Rathbone. This is really cheap but Rathbone seems to be having a little fun, the sets and production design are not bad for the budget, and the terrible dragon at the end is hilarious. Like the previous film and the next one there's magic swords and damsels in distress and evil wizards - really, it's a shock when you see one of these films and it actually deviates from the genre tropes much. Being made previous to both the Tolkien and Howard cults' establishment, this is more overtly medieval-King Arthur-like. A bit tedious at times so I can only give it a 5 but I also watched a horrible copy and it's possible that seeing it under better conditions would improve things.

56. Ator l'invincilbile / Ator the Fighting Eagle (Joe D'Amato, 1982) 3.1 on IMDb



Like an awful lot of Italian genre films this was made to quickly capitalize on a new trend; in this case, barbarian fantasies after Conan the Barbarian proved to be a surprise hit. So unsurprisingly has a rushed, extra-cheap feel to it - seems like most of it was shot in one small cave, a hillside, and a lake and I'll bet the shoot lasted a week at best. Still, it's not horrible (if not good) with a trio of attractive and scantily clad actresses (Sabrina Siani who was in a few of these, Laura Gemser and Ritza Brown), a couple of not-so-bad action scenes, a bit of coarse humor. The biggest problem is non-entity Miles O'Keefe as our fearles Ator, the predictive usurper of the rule of the Spider and it's minions. That's another thing a lot of these flicks have in common - ancient prophecies of the One who will Save the World from the Evil yadda yadda yadda. Anyway there's some cheesy fun but only enough for me to give it a 4.

110. Geostorm (2017) IMDB: 5.4
My Rating: 4
Yet another brainless Roland Emmerich disaster flick. This time he mixes it with a little government conspiracy theory in an attempt to keep it interesting. Honestly, I think he should've just ditched the whole astronaut and government official brothers plot and just has cities freezing and having lava towers exploding from the ground for an hour and a half. I think I would've been more pleased. As-is, it's all just so predictable and cliche.


111. Night of the Demon (1980) IMDB: 4.9
My Rating: 3
If you've ever wondered what it'd be like to have your dick ripped off by Bigfoot, wonder no more! Just watch this bizarrely terrible movie that moves at a snail's pace most of the time with horrible acting but with the occasional glorious moment of hilariously graphic violence like the aforementioned dick rip scene and the laughably brutal slo-mo finale.


112. Neverland (2003) IMDB: 5.0
My Rating: 5
The premise for this dark re-imagining of Peter Pan isn't necessarily a bad one but the execution is just awful with amateur acting and flat digital video cinematography. It's too bad because you can tell there's some vague potential hiding in all the murk and lame line readings.


113. Satellite in the Sky (1956) IMDB: 5.4
My Rating: 5
This one is pretty middle-of-the-road with a decent plot involving a bomb test in space gone wrong but with one incredibly tedious exposition dump after another and very little real tension. They apparently never heard the old mantra "show, don't tell".


114. Resident Evil: Retribution (2012) IMDB: 5.4
My Rating: 5
It's interesting that this entry in the Resident Evil franchise plays out like a handful of levels of a video game but not like any Resident Evil video game. It's far too linear compared to the games and really offers little beyond one stylish action sequence after another. And many of them just aren't quite stylish enough to be memorable. Paul W.S. Anderson relies far too much on slow motion and cheesy CGI monsters to have truly great action. Still, you could probably do worse...

11. Dinosaur Island (2014) - 3.4

The dinosaurs aren't even the most unbelievable aspect of this film... I went into it expecting to loathe it and rate it a 1 or 2 out of 10. I was pleasantly surprised when I got it up to a 3/10. It was a dumb kids movie and was WAY overlong at 82 minutes (not a typo), but at least

12. The Stepmother (1972) - 4.2

This was just boring. Offensively boring. I watched it yesterday and I barely remember it.

13. The Sister-in-Law (1974) - 4.9

I wonder how many movies have featured a character that switches between wet and dry so frequently. At the 28 minute mark of the film, the female protagonist had been swimming three separate times and taken two showers.

Average = 4.223

23. XX (Benjamin-Kusama-St. Vincent-Vuckovic, 2017) 4.6 on IMDb
Horror anthologies are popular at the moment, but they're tending to follow a lazy trend where the segments are all made independently to a brief of a loose theme. It's basically the producers commissioning several short films and then packaging them as a film. This one has four stories, with the "theme" that all of them are horror films directed by women. Credit for giving more directing work to women, but all four stories miss the mark. The technical aspects are competent, but the scripts are all poor and lack payoffs so the cumulative effect is frustrating as the stories successively fail. The worst segment isn't even a horror film: St. Vincent apparently doesn't like horror so she made a version of the Fawlty Towers episode The Kipper and the Corpse and scored it with typical horror film discordant music and jump scares. The interstitial animations between the stories by Sofìa Carrillo are good, but these are only a couple of minutes of the film.
3/10



24. Outpost II: Black Sun (Barker, 2012) 5.0 on IMDb
Muddy-looking horror action with soldiers being chased by undead Nazis. It's a sequel to Outpost which was pretty much the same plot. It got a bit better towards the end (which I think gives it the edge over the first installment) but was mostly boring.
3/10



25. Sorority Row (Hendler, 2009) 5.1 on IMDb
Fairly standard and forgettable slasher. There's nothing too bad or annoying in this one, and it looks quite nice, it's just that despite a few funny lines and a fun cameo from Carrie Fisher the script and acting tend to be weak. The film is also coy about gore and nudity, showing them only in brief flashes, but those are the things that I want to see in a cheesy slasher about sorority girls!
4/10



26. Knucklebones (Wilson, 2016) 3.8 on IMDb
A group of young people head to an abandoned factory to party but then decide to carry out a demon summoning ritual they stumble across, releasing a wisecracking Sumerian demon who is also a Nazi superweapon. As you can tell from that description, it's a completely nonsensical yet predictable slasher movie with a plot that appears to have been constructed by Mad Libs. However unlike the last film, this one delivers the graphic gore and nudity that movies like this sell themselves on.
4/10

57. Out for a Kill (Michael Oblowitz, 2003) 3.4 on IMDb



The only words you really need to know if you're thinking about watching this or like the title and don't know anything about it are: late Steven Seagal. While I haven't seen that much of his 2000s "work" yet, I think I can say that given what I have seen - and the ratings, DVD box-covers, character names and "talent" involved in most of the dozens of "films" he's made this century - this is not atypical. Which is to say that it's irredeemable garbage, poorly made in just about every way. Seagal plays one of his usual characters - in this case an educated dude (hah!), an archaelogy professor with a mysterious past who will suffer a tragedy and go on a revenge killing spree, also conveniently dispatching a huge Chinese criminal gang and doing what the cops, FBI, Interpol or whoever else might be involved can't do. Of course there are loads of action movies that don't feature the talents of Seagal that have very similar plots but SS always takes things down to a new level. His professor of course has to speak many languages, and be referred to by his little ol' school that you've never heard of (Yale, in this case) as their very finest faculty member - and of course he has to be proficient in many types of both armed and unarmed combat, have a beautiful wife who is half his age and who has to show her tits in one of the most gratuitous moments of nudity I've ever seen, and he has to be "rebel" of sorts who goes his own way and is always two steps ahead of both cops and criminals. I looked this up and it had a budget of $13 million and was shot on 35mm, but you wouldn't know it, it's ugly and cheap throughout with poor acting, stunts and FX all around. The only thing that leads me to give it a 2 instead of a 1 is that some of the location work was OK and the photography wasn't as dreary as in many current-day action films, Seagal subgenre or no. But overall this is down there with A Dangerous Man and Ticker as the worst from this "actor" that I've seen. I look forward to exploring even more of his recent output!

58. Pirates of Tripoli (Felix Feist, 1955) 5.0 on IMDb



Probably one of the weakest of the dozens of pirate movies and swashbucklers made in Hollywood in the 40s and 50s, this one features a very old-looking Paul Henreid - actually only a decade older than costar Patricia Medina playing a princess (of course) - as our pirate captain hero who must save the princess, get a new pirate fleet after his is burned up, get the gold, save the city from the evil usurper, etc, etc. Good color and one of my favorite character actors from the period, Paul Newlan (Lee Marvin's boss in M Squad), but not enough to make this more than a draggy 72 minute experience. I have enough of a tolerance for these kinds of things not to be too negative on them, even the worst give me some enjoyment and Feist is always a competent director, so I can give this a 4 but that's on the low side for even the lesser color costumers from this period.

59. The Green Slime (Kinji Fukasaku, 1968) 4.6 on IMDb



I would probably have seen this earlier if I had known that it is more or less an unofficial 5th film or sequel to Antonio Margheriti's "Gamma Quadrilogy" from 1966. It's got a somewhat strange production history, which I'm guessing the Wikipedia entry relates accurately but not in as much detail as I'd like. Basically MGM was involved with the Margheriti films and released them stateside (3 of them are now on DVD on Warner Archive) dubbed and I guess wanted to make another but for some reason (here's where the details are lacking on Wiki) is ended up being made in Japan rather than Italy by Fukasaku who is best known now for the long string of yakuza films he made shortly after this. And since MGM was financing it, it had to be made in English with Caucasian actors so it very much has the feel of Italian and American genre films of the period, without a lot of Japanese flavor; perhaps when I've seen more of the director's work I'll be able to see his imprint more, but as is it feels an awful lot like the earlier Margheriti films, which is all to the good IMO. The bright primary colors, the cheesy but cool miniatures, the comradeship of the military, scientific and medical personnel - all pretty cool, and this is all really well done and pretty exciting up until and except for...the monsters, which are among the most idiotic and fake looking creatures you'll see in a color SF film from this period or later. They really look like throwbacks to something like The Creeping Terror and they really take down the film - which otherwise would I think be considered good enough at least to not show up on many bad movie lists. As it is, being a generous rater and looking more at the good than the bad I enjoyed the hell out of this and will give it a 7. Not overall one of the best perhaps, but certainly one of the most fun watches in this challenge for me.

@OldAle1, on 'The Green Slime'

the predictable romantic triangle bored me beyond infinity (Robert Horton in particular has to be one of the most unsympathetic space captains ever, even the gorgeous Luciana Paluzzi seems frighteningly unanimated), but I thought the slime-y creatures were great fun, the colors and sets were indeed eye candy (love those reddish early shots on the asteroid), plus, unquestionably, one of the greatest theme songs of the whole 60s - green sliiiiiiiiiiiiiiime!: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4AL5PGAfTI4

[Pretentious Hipster]

Just watched Teuvo Tulio's Sensuela and it rules. Pure camp with Tulio's usual melodrama. I'm going under the assumption that the camp was intentional, but either way I had a great time.

If I had to choose a film sequence I wanted to be perpetually stuck in, it would have to be the party scenes from 'Sensuela', a film I love beyond all reasoning -



Glad you liked it!

Yeah, I can't disagree with any of that. Horton is indeed obnoxious and over the top, and only Richard Jaeckel feels particularly "real" here among the leads, but Fukasaku's direction does compensate - he keeps up the suspense, particularly around the halfway mark. I guess one's enjoyment depends to some extent whether one looks at this (and Margheriti's earlier "Gamma" films) as more camp or more serious-on-a-low-budget work; I'm not typically that into camp so for me it can be challenging to oscillate between the campy and the realistic. I think this treads the line, sometimes going well over for sure (i.e. the female costumes here). The theme song is great for sure and that's something that's been lacking in most of my views this month so props for that.
