I just saw part of one of the WORST kid's movies ever made.

[MilesColtrane]

...the 1986 made-for-TV version of "Babes in Toyland".

Featuring the stellar cast of Drew Barrymore, Richard Mulligan (Burt from "Soap"), Keanu Reeves, and Pat Morita

There wasn't one redeeming aspect of this shit sandwich.

The Toyland set looked like an old abandoned Putt Putt Golf Course that they had repainted in pastels.

The toys themselves mostly consisted of cheap rental quality costumes. I mean, you could see the zippers on the back of the teddy bears.

The script made no sense. I doubt that they could have blown the gaping plot holes past most six year olds.

The acting was rancid.

Keanu Reeves sings...repeatedly.

I wonder if there was even a director on the set. It looks like somebody just set up a camera at random, without any regard for continuity or composition.

It may as well have been edited by a chimp.

I could actually feel my brain damaging as I watched it.

At one point, I think I forgot how to breathe.

2. How about a spoiler alert next time?

Yeah, I saw part of that stinker over the weekend. It aired on a local Pittsburgh station that specializes in decades-old garbage. They've shown 1985's Dungeonmaster at least a dozen times in the past week, for instance.


I feel your pain.

3. Thank You Mr. Ebert

Hi,
Thanks for the funny review! I needed a laugh and you provided me with a good one! Now I feel like looking for it on Netflix.

Was it like so bad it was half way entertaining just to make fun of or not even worth that?

Peace

[MilesColtrane]

5. So bad, it's good?

May be worth it if you invite some friends over and have lots of tequila on hand.

I've always thought that hurling drunken invective at the screen during a horrible movie should be an Olympic event.

6. Sometimes bad is good

Hi,
Haha, nice. Well, to me there are movies that are so bad/stupid they are entertaining. An example for me is Roadhouse, so many stupid lines, and the characters are just so over the top it makes for fun viewing. I'll have some beer, but will avoid the tequila!

Peace

7. this movie was so bad

that boredom could not make me suffer more than a few minutes of it. Uggggh.

If a movie is going to be this bad, they have to give me some pretty scenery to look at or something to keep me watching more than that.

8. Being forced to watch that crapfest by force was ruled a war crime

by the International Tribunal.

If given the choice between waterboarding and watching that abomination, I would take the waterboarding.
