VIDEO: Jack and Jill (2011)

Jack (Adam Sandler) gets a visit from his identical twin Jill (also Adam Sandler) and "wacky" hijinks ensue, including Jill dating both a stereotypical Mexican gardener and Al Pacino, who's playing... himself? It's a comedy so devoid of humor, you can feel your life draining away as you watch it.

VIDEO: Spy Kids 3-D: Game Over (2003)

Juni Cortez enters a virtual reality game where he must stop the evil Toy Maker, played by a confused and over the top Sylvester Stallone... who also plays his own henchmen? Not only that, but there are brief appearances from the likes of Selena Gomez, George Clooney, Salma Hayek, and Elijah Wood. Can the Renegado survive the ridiculous plot and endless parade of awful cameos?

VIDEO: Mexican Batwoman (1968)

Mexican Batwoman stars the beautiful Maura Monti as a super-heroine who must stop a nefarious doctor from creating a race of fish people from dead lucha libre wrestlers, all the while punching out bad guys, solving crimes, and wearing a bikini. Just like Batman!

VIDEO: Delta Farce (2007)

Renegado gets angry at Delta Farce, the disastrously unfunny comedy starring Larry the Cable Guy, Bill Engvall, and DJ Qualls as a group of National Guardsmen who crash land in Mexico and for some reason think they're in Iraq. The movie scores some points for casting Danny Trejo as the bad guy, and the exquisite Marisol Nichols as his woman, but immediately forfeits those points by including Jeff Dunham and his talking jalapeño puppet.

VIDEO: Top Cat: The Movie (2011)

In this episode, the Renegado takes a look at Don Gato y Su Pandilla, the 2011 Mexican-made film adaptation of the Hanna-Barbera character Top Cat, who's about as beloved by American audiences as Huckleberry Hound or Quick Draw McGraw, and yet has inexplicably achieved wide popularity in Mexico and South America.
