Years of the Beast (1981)
Not even a first coming.
This thing looks dang good, a movie about the Rapture! The second coming! Having watched a trailer for it, I was sure this movie was going to be worth a least a few laughs, I truly believed. Oh how sorely I was disappointed. There are no crazy Christian propaganda overtones, just some extremely low budget animated special effects. The movie apparently really follows the biblical story of the Rapture, but even though that premise promises a great deal of unintentional humor value, in reality it's just boring. The dialog is obtuse and vacant and the plot, what little there is, is centered around a bunch of spineless theological pushovers. Little to no risibility factor, who'dve thought the second coming would be such a yawn?
Project Eliminator (1991)
Polishing a Turd
Swill is perhaps an over complimentary adjective to describe this. Carradine provides a name, a daughter, a few extra pounds and some funding as associate producer, little else. The thing that made me give it the second star was the fact that it was filmed entirely on location in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and Las Lunas, New Mexico. This means little to nothing to anyone who's not from either of those locations (Me!). And it shouldn't, but who the hell shoots a movie there? Someone with little to lose but your attention span. Fear not, you will be disappointed, inaccurate Vietnam references aside, as previous reviews may have mentioned, this is flat out bland. And this coming from a guy who likes crap.
