Time Under Fire (1997)
Jun 9, 2003Time Travel/Action
Unimaginative time travel/action film that plays out like in reverse involving submarines, the Bermuda Triangle and future rebels
Richard Tyson
Battlefield Earth: A Saga of the Year 3000 (2000)
May 14, 2000Earth Under Alien Rule/L. Ron Hubbard Adaptation
The adaptation of the alien invasion novel by Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard starring John Travolta is a completely ridiculous film that was laughed off screens and is regarded as a classic bad movie
The Visitation (2006)
Nov 16, 2015Christian Film/Ambiguous Miracle-Healing Stranger
The novelty of the first Christian horror film. As opposed to much of the message-heavy tripe that usually gets peddled in this niche market, this is actually well structured with a number of interesting ambiguities and engaging as a story for the better part
Flight of the Living Dead: Outbreak on a Plane (2007)
Jun 20, 2017Zombies on a Plane
One of several films that came out not long after Snakes on a Plane offering similar wacky collusions – in this case, a zombie outbreak aboard a plane. The surprise is that the film plays itself seriously
The Black Waters of Echo’s Pond (2009)
May 18, 2022Sinister Board Game
Horror film with an interesting cast line-up about a group on a weekend getaway who play a boardgame that serves to bring out secrets and hidden desires
Bound to Vengeance (2015)
Aug 7, 2017Imprisoned Girl Seeks Revenge
From the generic title, this seems no more than another film about a girl seeking revenge for years of captivity a la I Spit on Your Grave. On the other hand, things are quickly turned on their head in unexpected ways
Playing With Dolls (2015)
Sep 28, 2017Slasher Film
Slasher film where a girl is hired as a housekeeper in a remote location only to find she is being stalked by a masked killer and forced to survive with her bare hands. Two sequels followed.
Playing With Dolls: Bloodlust (2016)
Dec 9, 2020Slasher Film
The second in a trilogy of slasher films about people being staked by a maniac at a backwoods cabin while everything is secretly being filmed by tv cameras
The Perfect Weapon (2016)
Feb 26, 2017Action Film/Dystopian Future
Steven Seagal makes an SF film. Even more bizarrely, Seagal plays the villain for one of the few times in his career, namely the dictator of a dystopian future. An overweight and aging Seagal has a handful of scenes philosophising, while the bulk of the film is a super-soldier plot carried by others
The Sector (2016)
Aug 3, 2017Alternate World Criminal
Variant on the alternate world hopping theme where a bounty hunter finds the person he is pursuing is an alternate world criminal. The film's budget is way too low to do any justice to either the theme or the setting after the collapse of civilisation
Death Kiss (2018)
Jun 8, 2020Vigilante Film
A mockbuster copy of Death Wish that gains its novelty from the casting of Robert Kovacs, an actor who could be a dead ringer for the late Charles Bronson, who is naturally cast as a lone man with a gun cleaning up the streets of scumbags
