Masters of the Universe (1987)
Good Bad Flicks Episode #3
Posted Oct 5 2011 by Cecil Trachenburg

“Break out your action figures, and settle in for pure ‘80s awesomeness!

Wild Wild West (1999)
Posted Jun 25 2008 by Gareth Basset

"A script so busy and compacted that it creates a thick and odorous density of idiocy, poisoning every minute of celluloid with a detail or two that insults the viewer long after the moment has passed."

Lost in Space (1998)

An Irwin Allen production of a screenplay by Akiva Goldsman? "The pain, the pain..."
