To Be Fair this are imdb bottoms movies that got a theatrical release. I don't know If the same movies are on the List If straight too dvd TV and streaming movies count.
I'm 3 seconds in and gotta tell you to watch " from Chandi Chowk to China " its so good/bad and so hated!! It's bollywood kung-fu hustle?!?! Maybe?!! Idk it's gold!!!!
I once had meet #UweBoll....i believe it was in Munich or Nuremberg back in the mid 2000´s.... i always thought of him as a #MegaTroll🤣 Anyway...nice video, i wish you all the best, greetings from Europe😘
My favorite fact about Manos: The Hands of Fate is that the only pay anyone involved received was a 20 pound bag of dogfood for the lead couple, whose dog also appeared in the film. They literally got paid in dog food.
The little girl who play the couple's daughter in the film was also paid with a bicycle. Or at least that's what she told on an interview decades later
I mean, technically, Shanka, the dog, got paid in dog food for appearing... It definitely saved the owners' money, but I do like that the pet doberman who played The Master's dog got directly compensated!
Hey Evasive, I actually edited an episode of a podcast that interviewed the director of the Hottie and the Nottie, and I would highly recommend listening to it. The story he tells is, basically, that the story he wanted to make was pretty much the complete opposite of the movie that got released, and that when it came time to edit, he was worried but he had a really amazing editor, who actually made a pretty good movie, that he showed to the producers....then, they went silent for six months, hired an editor from The Suite Life of Zack and Cody and completely reshot and re-edited the film, and one day he just had a VHS at his door with the movie on it. He watched it and most of the movie was not his. He tried to get his name removed from the project and it couldn't be done. Very very interesting conversation with that guy and I don't think he deserves the credit for that movie. The director's name is Tom Putnam and the podcast is Making Movies is HARD! Ep 320
I didn’t find that in my research that’s so interesting now I’m mad I missed it thank you! Somebody really needs to update the Wikipedia page for that movie with this information and clear his name
@@caitthecat The imdb page lists two editors, Jeff Malmberg and Jim Miley, and Miley WAS an editor for Zack and Cody according to imdb, so I do believe Tom's story.
It's weirdly validating to see Son of the Mask on this list because in elementary school I went to a movie theatre birthday party (idk how widespread these were but tl;dr a kid's parents rented out a small theatre for the day for a birthday celebration) and we watched the SpongeBob SquarePants movie and I was like "I MUST have one of these." And for *my* birthday they were showing Son of the Mask and I don't think a single child enjoyed it, and all these years I just thought I was unpopular and people didn't like me. That was true but also I think the more prescient thing was that we watched Son of the Mask.
LMFAO something very similar happened to me. I remember asking my mom to help gather my friends together to see what must've been the most hotly anticipated movie of my childhood, so she took all my friends to the fancy movie theater at the mall and then said we'd go to Burger King after and end the day with a pool party. Couldn't imagine a better day! The movie she took us to see was Shrek the Third. I can still remember slowly realizing that I fucking hated the movie the longer it went on, and just sitting there in stunned silence. I didn't even consider the possibility of not loving it considering that the first 2 Shrek films were probably my favorite movies period up to that point. After the movie ended, we all quietly went to Burger King where I was so disappointed that I could barely muster up any words to say to my friends and we ended up having no pool party. The movie was so awful that to this day, I still refuse to watch Shrek 4 and when I brought up this whole experience to my mother, she just said "they made a third Shrek movie?" Zero recollection of any of this 😭
I hated Disaster Movie mostly because I was working at a video rental store when it came out and for some reason the copies we had all only had a picture of Ironman, Hulk, and Batman on the cover, so i had to explain to hundreds of parents with young children that those characters are only in the movie for like 10 seconds each as well as why it's not a movie small children should see.
Disaster Movie was so bad that when I saw it in theaters I left the theater to get a gyro next store and they let me back in with my food no questions asked.
I will never forget that afternoon in 2010 when I was pirating _Disaster Movie_ on an Internet Cafe, and when the download was at 90% a power surge left the entire block without electricity... after eventualy watching the film I joked that the Universe wanted to spare me from the torture of watching it
So fun fact: while I wasn’t in the Kirk Cameron saving Christmas dance sequence, I was in the dance crew with that group for a time. It was a high school Christian hip hop dance crew called the god squad. I remember about them bragging about being in this movie. They were also kind of a cult? Our Bible study (led by a man named Dog) was all about faith healing and the end times. They once yelled at me to “rebuke my sneezes” because obviously sneezing is a sign of a lack of faith lol
Guess you never got the memo that due to masses of people all sneezing at the same time, it affected the atmosphere to the point that the end times (due for the turn of the century) were cancelled.
The Birdemic creator’s Birdemic van had the word “BIDEMIC” written across the side. Not “birdemic”, the name of the movie, but a misspelled name. I think it’s absolutely perfect. I lived in Silicon Valley at the time, and was obsessed with trying to find the Bidemic van.
I unironically enjoyed several of these movies as a kid. Kid me had some truly awful taste. Also, fun fact: the little girl in Manos wrote an article about the experience and her hunt for a copy of the movie for years. She ended up calling Mystery Science Theater 3000 after the episode premiered in hopes of them sending her a copy and they did!

How does the Hottie & the Nottie movie poster look so much like horrible makeover mobile games today? Did someone decide to base all of those on that movie?
I remember flipping through TV channels as a preteen, and accidentally catching the scene in Disaster Movie where the rabid chipmunks eat Juno. That one scene has haunted me for over a decade. I do not remember anything else about the movie.
I was a (I assume) very disturbed kid and for some reason I loved to watch this movie with my mom, I do not remember that scene, so I asume I decided to repress it
Fun (albeit kinda sad) story: I went to a Scream panel at Monster Mania in MD pre-covid, and someone asked the cast what their least favorite/worst movie they've ever done was and IMMEDIATELY told Jamie that he couldn't say "Son of the Mask." The crowd laughed pretty hard but he had this very defeated look on his face after that.
He can cry about it all he wants but the movie was going to be garbage based on its premise. Also the guy's entire body of work is trash. It was right up his alley. Now he's old and realizes all of his work is garbage so he's sad. Not everyone can be good at their job Jamie.
My dad took me and my brother to see Superbabies in theaters, because we were both toddlers. It was so bad that he wanted to be dragged out of the theater. He still considers it one of the worst films he had to experience. We somehow had it on DVD.
I was afraid of the VHS cover for YEARS as a kid, I dont even know if I ever saw it properly through because any moment I saw the cover I would scream, says a lot about the movie that even the cover scared young children.
this is the first i've heard of uwe boll and he doesnt seem like a great guy, but challenging your critics to box and then kicking their asses without even wearing any head protection or anything is so funny. iconic behavior from a weird ass dude
He later retired from filmmaking due to Germany closing the tax loophole he exploited, moved to Canada, and currently runs a successful German restaurant in Vancouver. He apparently recently returned to filmmaking, and spends his free time trolling on Letterboxd.
I don't understand why Boll's still seen as some clever con man and not as the soulless ghoul he really is. He made a movie called "Hanau" in 2022, which is a retelling of the worst right-wing extremist terror attack in recent German history. In 2020 a fascist went on a racist murder spree in the city Hanau, shooting 9 people in cold blood, wounding 7 others and then killing himself and his mother. The tremendous failures of police and state were subjects of investigation and are still widely discussed. Boll didn't get the approval of the victims' relatives but decided to make the movie anyway because he is a truly despicable person and will do anything to make a quick buck.
The thing about Uwe Boll's boxing is that Seanbaby was invited to participate then the invitation was withdrawn once Boll realized Seanbaby had MMA experience.
that could be torture, because he only did that in extreme cases of tastelessness. well, and pink flamingoes which he said was more of a thing than a movie.
That would qualify as self-imposed torture; Ebert only gave zero stars to movies he didn't think even qualified as movies. A bad movie he would still give 1 star to; 0 stars he only gave to movies he thought offended him for calling themselves movies.
That MST3K episode on Manos is special because the film gave them so little material to work with that in the opening they just repeated the title of the movie over and over again, and it ended up being one of the best things they ever made
I've never seen any of these movies...but I have seen Meet the Spartans. I had to review it for my college newspaper when I was a freshman. I was in a bad mood already because the night before I stayed up til 3 a.m. - not because I was partying or drinking, but because I was just feeling annoyed and couldn't sleep - and I had to walk three blocks to the theater on a cold, dreary winter's day. I was one of only five people in the theater and didn't laugh once during the entire movie. I walked back to campus just as it started snowing, wrote my review, emailed it to my editor, then shut the light off, left a bitterly-worded note for my roommate to not turn on the light, and took a nap. I woke up maybe 2-3 hours later feeling MUCH better. I checked my email and found that my editor had emailed me back, saying, "I'm so sorry the movie was so bad." For context, my editor NEVER emailed me back, so the fact that she apologized for sending me to review the movie told me that I really must have been extremely bitter when I wrote that review!
I was really into the stupid 2000's parody movie genre pioneered by Scary Movie and its ripoffs when I was a teen, so I asked my dad if we could go see Epic Movie when it was in theaters because I mistook it for a sequel to Scary Movie (which was the director's intention, more or less). He looked up the movie on Fandango, read the summary, and refused because it sounded too stupid even for my Adam Sandler-loving parents to sit through. Years later I'd learn that he saved me from discovering early on just how painful a bad comedy can be.
The first time I watched Manos I literally laughed so hard I cried for like 30 minutes straight. When Torgo was unloading the luggage I lost it. I don't know what to say. It was hilarious.
For folks who are interested in Manos: The Hands of Fate, I recommend the documentary Hotel Torgo. The BTS is such a messy story, and its a great watch even if you don't intend to watch the movie... But you should watch the movie for the smooth Jazz soundtrack alone.
They didn't even help with Scary Movie. They're only credited as writers on it because they had a strikingly similar script floating around at the time, so the studio bought it and permanently shelved it so it couldn't compete with Scary Movie, then credited them as writers despite not writing a single thing for the final product.
They kind of did a decent one with twilight because at the very list they seemed to have watched the movie, but who knows, I was a kid when those were realesed and for some bizarre reason I liked them XD
@@LordArikado They got credited thanks to the WGA rule, so since then they overused the "from 2 of 6 writers of Scary Movie" in their marketing, which is a big fat lie
Epic movie and Borat were the peak of comedy for me and my other preteen friends in 2007 tbh. it sucks and it’s obviously very dependent on mid 2000s pop culture references, but some of the scenes were genuinely funny. like after the whole entire nacho libre thing, Kal Penn’s character says “i’m sick of this” as if it’s a daily event
I love your content so much. SO MUCH. 😭😭😭😭 Your channel just randomly came across my recommended page like 6 months ago. I'm so glad I found you. Your brand of humor is - *chef's kiss*
What I personally hate about "Son of the Mask" is that "Alan Cumming as Loki" sounds really good in theory X) Also it was rather strange to find that the scene with the dancing baby was ripped off for an ad. Like, you really saw that uncanny valley horror and decided "ooh, let's rework that into an ad"? X_x
For our sake, please watch the Letterboxd top 10 worst films! Youd only have to do 9 since you already watched Disaster Movie... Unless you finally relieve yourself and say what you wanted to say here there. But, great vid as always Evasive! Keep it up!
7:48 I remember "Vampires Suck" when it was released. This was such a fun film because Twilight just became a very polarising phaenomenon of youth culture at the time.
the fact that the song at the end of Disaster Movie was parodying a joke song that Sarah Silverman did on her (at the time) boyfriend Jimmy Kimmel's show,, truly the worst encapsulation of '00s humor
The youtube channel I Hate Everything actually did do a series called Search for the Worst which was basically supposed to be Looking at the Bottom 100 on IMDB and finding out which one was the worst of all time. He's pretty much ended the series but he did do almost 50 movies, although some of them aren't in the IMDB Bottom 100 but are what I would call Bargain Bin trash films, basically films that are just ripping off popular films and putting them in the Bargain Bin to sell to old grannies who would get confused about the title and basically pick up these Bargain Bin films. Dingo Pictures is actually a very good example of this as most of their films are just ripping off Disney films. I would actually love to see a full series like that one again but this time the creator gets to the finish line and tells us which one is the worst of all time.
i remember being 7 years old and being so deeply disturbed by every bit of footage i saw of willy wonka in epic movie. like that shit creeped me out so bad for some reason
I love love love MST3K, and Manos has a very special place in my heart as a result. I really want to info dump about the production and the MST3K "revival" of the movie and of the newly-discovered workprint of the film, but I'll just say that the actor who played Debbie at age 6 is named Jackey Neyman Jones. Shanka, her family's dog, played The Master's doberman. Her father, Tom Neyman, played The Master. JNJ is now an artist, and she teaches sci-fi themed online art classes at Dumb Industries. She also published a memoir in 2016 called Growing Up with Manos: The Hands of Fate. There are lots of ways to fall into the Manos rabbit hole, but I recommend following Jackey, who is funny and gracious (I don't know her, but she shows up for livestreams and other events, and she is a fan of good-bad movies, as well as the child star of one of the best-worst!)
Hello Evasive, I am nicely requesting a review of Letterboxd's top 10 lowest rated films. I believe that your reviewing of the material is something that needs to be in my life. I do hope my nice demeanor persuades you to accept. Kind regards and best wishes.
Letterboxd bottom ten sounds fun, it would be legendary if you could get the Sunday Movies guys to guest star so they can try to guess each movie based on reviews first
Terrible Bollywood movies that I would recommend are Humshakals (2014) and Mastizaade (2016). Humshakals has people consuming cocaine bread and vodka pancakes. Mastizaade has a main character greet a Thai man with "konnichiwa". Also both films are not fond of queer people.
@@keythah I’ve watched a single bad movie named Jungle Love from Nepal and it was an unofficial reboot to a c grade Bollywood adults movie of the same name! What a Mockbuster!
That dog mask movie did literally traumatize me for years, somehow I got it in my head that it was the movie Cujo lol. Then after discovering what Cujo was I knew it wasn't that, I had no idea what I watched until now. Thank you, now i can stop thinking about that terrible green dog.
Disaster Movie is the only time I walked out of a movie theater half way through the movie. I think I was 10 and the chipmunks scared me so much 😭 But thank you for your service 🫡 I love these kind of videos. Please, make one about the letterboxd lowest rated too 🙏🏻 P.S. Are here any other Italians that know Birdemic and Manos because of Yotobi? 😂
Credo di non averli mai sentiti prima, però gli darò un'occhiata! Recentemente avevo scoperto un canale "Antro Dei Cliché" che si occupa di film brutti/dimenticati e ho trovato i sui video davvero ben fatti.
Birdemic and Manos are masterpieces of "good bad". Don't belong in this pile of excrement. Just to be clear, "bad bad" insults your intelligence; "good bad" insults itself.
The first time I was watching this video I was watching Arrested Development in the background, so when the Arrested Development intro played. I was like oh my God, what a coincidence.😂
I feel like “there was a good cut of this movie that the studio executives ruined” is just the new way for people to avoid admitting they made a terrible movie. It’s obviously true sometimes, but there is no good Fantastic Four (2015), there is no good Suicide Squad (2016), and I will bet everything I have ever owned that there was never a decent Son of the Mask at any point, from script to edit.
I remember watching Saving Christmas at a religious group gathering. That was something, somehow enough to piss off the religious and non-religious alike
I think I'd actually like to see Paris Hilton in a movie where she plays a paranoid, reclusive billionaire who shows up in a few scenes as an expository character where her natural flatness (and actual experience with elite society) actually makes the character work.
Godddd I remember I watched son of the mask so often as a kid, it was one of my favs, although I think whichever version I had of it definitely didn't have?? An evil green sperm scene??
@@EvasiveOne Ohh! Huh thats interesting, 🤔 I don't know where exactly my mum bought it, but I watched it on DVD in iceland. Maybe they were selling the US vers there (wouldnt come as a surprise, iceland lacks eu status/restrictions)
@@EvasiveOneHey, Latin American here, in my country (Venezuela) they didn't give a single fuck, I saw the sperm scene at the tender age of 5 years old XD
@@EvasiveOne Italian viewer present! I saw this film just one time, on TV, and among the few memories I have there are a couple of frames with these cartoonish spermatozoons. Thank God I didn't recall the kid and the dog in CGI, instead.
My ex-girlfriend convinced me to watch Epic Movie with her while we were still dating. She kept telling me "you're gonna be laughing all night" among other things. I sat through the whole thing and never even so much as cracked a smile. You ever had an awkward moment where you went up to a friend to show them a funny video, only for them to be stone-faced the entire time? This was the 1 hour and 33 minute equivalent of that.
To be honest, you've got to have a high IQ to understand the Birdemic franchise and the deep themes included, the audio mixing symbolizing the absurdism and chaotic noise of society is a great example.
9:07 My first kiss happened at the end of Epic Movie as Bubba Sparxxx's Ms. New Booty pulsed through the theater and that's a memory the AI overlords can never take from me lmao
I’ve never heard of your channel or anything prior to finding this video randomly as I scrolled down my usual videos. As soon as the Arrested Development intro began, I knew you would be a channel I had to subscribe to. Thank you for the content!
Radhe was unanimously panned, yes. But there are far worse Bollywood Movies. You are bang on with your research regarding the film and its reception. This is the level of detailing missing from most people who cover indian films from the west. Kudos to you! I hope you explore some gems from the wide variety of content we produce too! Cheers :)
Thank you so much! I started watching Bollywood films a few years ago and I’ve seen I think 15 now (20 if you include Satyajit Ray films). I have many more I’d like to watch I’ve loved most of the films I’ve seen! 💖
It should be noted that Boll cherry-picked his opponents, openly rejecting any potential opponent who had ANY sort of combat training, intentionally cultivating a line-up of out-of-shape nerds he could pummel with ease..
While watching this video, I've been persuaded Willy Wonka in "Epic Movie" and Michael Jackson in "Disaster Movie" were played by the same actor, but Wikipedia invalidates that. And yes, it appears Willy is Glover, and I am: "What the frick...?"

He can cry about it all he wants but the movie was going to be garbage based on its premise. Also the guy's entire body of work is trash. It was right up his alley. Now he's old and realizes all of his work is garbage so he's sad. Not everyone can be good at their job Jamie.
My dad took me and my brother to see Superbabies in theaters, because we were both toddlers. It was so bad that he wanted to be dragged out of the theater. He still considers it one of the worst films he had to experience. We somehow had it on DVD.
I hate to tell you this, but Baby Geniuses 2 had THREE straight-to-dvd sequels.
Please say sike right now
13:27 man…. Remember when you had to actually RELEASE movies to cash them in as tax write-offs?
I remember the Son of the Mask commercials giving me full on nightmares as a child, that dog was fucking terrifying.
I was afraid of the VHS cover for YEARS as a kid, I dont even know if I ever saw it properly through because any moment I saw the cover I would scream, says a lot about the movie that even the cover scared young children.
The fact that Jon Voight was in all the direct to video Baby Geniuses Sequels after 2 is one of the most bizarre things I know.
Steven Paul definitely knows some dark, dark secret and did a blackmail
There are more? I am both saddened and laughing at that
@@bookshelfhoneyactually he’s just Steven’s manager and godfather to his niece and he was just doing him a favor lol
That adult baby knows his stuff about hockey stick grips
this is the first i've heard of uwe boll and he doesnt seem like a great guy, but challenging your critics to box and then kicking their asses without even wearing any head protection or anything is so funny. iconic behavior from a weird ass dude
He later retired from filmmaking due to Germany closing the tax loophole he exploited, moved to Canada, and currently runs a successful German restaurant in Vancouver. He apparently recently returned to filmmaking, and spends his free time trolling on Letterboxd.
I don't understand why Boll's still seen as some clever con man and not as the soulless ghoul he really is. He made a movie called "Hanau" in 2022, which is a retelling of the worst right-wing extremist terror attack in recent German history. In 2020 a fascist went on a racist murder spree in the city Hanau, shooting 9 people in cold blood, wounding 7 others and then killing himself and his mother. The tremendous failures of police and state were subjects of investigation and are still widely discussed. Boll didn't get the approval of the victims' relatives but decided to make the movie anyway because he is a truly despicable person and will do anything to make a quick buck.
Manufactured "badass" behaviour by a bully. He only fought people he knew he could beat. Look up Uwe Boll vs Seanbaby.
@@BlueFalcon1357 Imagine him finding out one of his opponents was also a black belt in multiple martial arts!
@@LordArikado nah they deleted his account. unfortunately
“We do not deserve another pandemic” hands down funniest review, amateur or professional, of all time
I am asking nicely as you requested in the end... do the Top 10 Worst Movies on Letterboxd.
Wish granted!
The thing about Uwe Boll's boxing is that Seanbaby was invited to participate then the invitation was withdrawn once Boll realized Seanbaby had MMA experience.
Have you considered watching every movie that Ebert gave zero stars?
That’s a good idea! I’ll add it to my list thank you 💖
@@EvasiveOneomg thanks for responding 🥰
that could be torture, because he only did that in extreme cases of tastelessness. well, and pink flamingoes which he said was more of a thing than a movie.
That would qualify as self-imposed torture; Ebert only gave zero stars to movies he didn't think even qualified as movies. A bad movie he would still give 1 star to; 0 stars he only gave to movies he thought offended him for calling themselves movies.
That MST3K episode on Manos is special because the film gave them so little material to work with that in the opening they just repeated the title of the movie over and over again, and it ended up being one of the best things they ever made
the nicknames in Space Mutiny would like to have a word
@@gnalkhere Beef Man-Muscle! Fridge McLarge Huge!
The movie is genuinely impossibly dull if you’re not watching either the MST3K episode or the handpuppet remake Manos the Hands of Felt
My personal favorite moment was when Joel got so frustrated he finally just shouted, "DO SOMETHING!!!! UGH!!!" at the screen
@@Cdr2002 Wait, The Hands of Felt is a real thing?
I've never seen any of these movies...but I have seen Meet the Spartans. I had to review it for my college newspaper when I was a freshman. I was in a bad mood already because the night before I stayed up til 3 a.m. - not because I was partying or drinking, but because I was just feeling annoyed and couldn't sleep - and I had to walk three blocks to the theater on a cold, dreary winter's day. I was one of only five people in the theater and didn't laugh once during the entire movie. I walked back to campus just as it started snowing, wrote my review, emailed it to my editor, then shut the light off, left a bitterly-worded note for my roommate to not turn on the light, and took a nap. I woke up maybe 2-3 hours later feeling MUCH better. I checked my email and found that my editor had emailed me back, saying, "I'm so sorry the movie was so bad." For context, my editor NEVER emailed me back, so the fact that she apologized for sending me to review the movie told me that I really must have been extremely bitter when I wrote that review!
I can picture a freezing college student with a cap and a scarf, red eyed and with a angry expression taking notes of hate with a very small block
Evasive isn't committing hate crimes against the LGBT????? 😳
I mean she’s making queer people watch bad movies so
How can someone who's transgendered commit hate crime against LGBT ?
I was really into the stupid 2000's parody movie genre pioneered by Scary Movie and its ripoffs when I was a teen, so I asked my dad if we could go see Epic Movie when it was in theaters because I mistook it for a sequel to Scary Movie (which was the director's intention, more or less). He looked up the movie on Fandango, read the summary, and refused because it sounded too stupid even for my Adam Sandler-loving parents to sit through. Years later I'd learn that he saved me from discovering early on just how painful a bad comedy can be.
Well, sadly my mom and I are beneath that, we bought and watch that movie all the time, at least we are easy to entertain XD
The first time I watched Manos I literally laughed so hard I cried for like 30 minutes straight. When Torgo was unloading the luggage I lost it. I don't know what to say. It was hilarious.
If you haven't experienced _Troll 2_ you need to. It's the worst thing ever made and I just couldn't stop laughing the whole way thru.
@@oliversomething I definitely haven't experienced a Troll movie yet and now you have my interest lol
@@aictopus Don't confuse *Troll 2* with *Troll* as the two movies have nothing to do with each other. Because reasons.
@@oliversomething LOL Oh, ok. I will make sure to separate Troll 2 from Troll.
BABE leave me alone for 32 minutes and 03 seconds, a new Evasive vid just dropped
Oh my goodness -- you are my favorite movie critic! The incisive humor and the video game music/noises are masterclass.
The first 18 seconds were entirely my brainchild 😇
Thanks for having me on!
babe wake up the new evasive video is back up
For folks who are interested in Manos: The Hands of Fate, I recommend the documentary Hotel Torgo.
The BTS is such a messy story, and its a great watch even if you don't intend to watch the movie...
But you should watch the movie for the smooth Jazz soundtrack alone.
the guys who made all the "___ movie" movies helped with scary movie and then thought they could do it themselves, which they couldnt
They didn't even help with Scary Movie. They're only credited as writers on it because they had a strikingly similar script floating around at the time, so the studio bought it and permanently shelved it so it couldn't compete with Scary Movie, then credited them as writers despite not writing a single thing for the final product.
They kind of did a decent one with twilight because at the very list they seemed to have watched the movie, but who knows, I was a kid when those were realesed and for some bizarre reason I liked them XD
@@LordArikado They got credited thanks to the WGA rule, so since then they overused the "from 2 of 6 writers of Scary Movie" in their marketing, which is a big fat lie
The arrested development opening goes hard!
What would happen if Evasive actually watched a good movie? The world may never know.
Epic movie and Borat were the peak of comedy for me and my other preteen friends in 2007 tbh. it sucks and it’s obviously very dependent on mid 2000s pop culture references, but some of the scenes were genuinely funny. like after the whole entire nacho libre thing, Kal Penn’s character says “i’m sick of this” as if it’s a daily event
I love your content so much. SO MUCH. 😭😭😭😭 Your channel just randomly came across my recommended page like 6 months ago. I'm so glad I found you. Your brand of humor is - *chef's kiss*
What I personally hate about "Son of the Mask" is that "Alan Cumming as Loki" sounds really good in theory X)
Also it was rather strange to find that the scene with the dancing baby was ripped off for an ad. Like, you really saw that uncanny valley horror and decided "ooh, let's rework that into an ad"? X_x
I love Megashark vs. Giant Octopus! The scene where Megashark leaps out of San Francisco Bay and takes down an airliner in mid-flight is incomparable.
Now I feel like I need to get a green screen and insert myself into the epic Saving Christmas dance scene.
I'll pay good money to watch that.
Not much, but enough to afford a pizza or two.
For our sake, please watch the Letterboxd top 10 worst films! Youd only have to do 9 since you already watched Disaster Movie... Unless you finally relieve yourself and say what you wanted to say here there. But, great vid as always Evasive! Keep it up!
7:48 I remember "Vampires Suck" when it was released. This was such a fun film because Twilight just became a very polarising phaenomenon of youth culture at the time.
A new vid from Evasive = happy day!!!!
Her in a tight white shirt = happier day
@@someguy42093gay
Real Evasive fans remember the original nightmare Helix ad
im assuming its something about the original video being privated but could you explain
I had to take it down and reupload because of an audio issue
This video is sponsered by !!!
Wow, you really thought you could hold a coffee mug like that and no one would say anything.
6:30 The joke is that one actor has Eid, the other Independence Day, another one Diwali and the other one, Christmas.
Birdemic is such a hood classic in bad movies, probably the one here I’ve seen the most reviews and parodies of
It's a modern classic. I've seen it at least three or four times with different groups of people.
@@dinosaysrawr that sounds fun
the fact that the song at the end of Disaster Movie was parodying a joke song that Sarah Silverman did on her (at the time) boyfriend Jimmy Kimmel's show,, truly the worst encapsulation of '00s humor
and that movie was a smash hit overseas as well, where no one had yet heard of the Kimmel
The youtube channel I Hate Everything actually did do a series called Search for the Worst which was basically supposed to be Looking at the Bottom 100 on IMDB and finding out which one was the worst of all time. He's pretty much ended the series but he did do almost 50 movies, although some of them aren't in the IMDB Bottom 100 but are what I would call Bargain Bin trash films, basically films that are just ripping off popular films and putting them in the Bargain Bin to sell to old grannies who would get confused about the title and basically pick up these Bargain Bin films. Dingo Pictures is actually a very good example of this as most of their films are just ripping off Disney films.
I would actually love to see a full series like that one again but this time the creator gets to the finish line and tells us which one is the worst of all time.
5:11 He invents his own avant-garde choreography lmao or as veteran choreographer Farah Khan once said: “Less and less of his body parts are moving.”
Farah Khan is so hilarious, plus I really like Om Shanti Om.
Hahaha.
i remember being 7 years old and being so deeply disturbed by every bit of footage i saw of willy wonka in epic movie. like that shit creeped me out so bad for some reason
i also remembered being really freaked out by trailers for son of the mask
this was legitimately such a good video, and the editing?? amazing as always!! i always look forward to a new Evasive video :)
☺☺☺☺☺
I love love love MST3K, and Manos has a very special place in my heart as a result. I really want to info dump about the production and the MST3K "revival" of the movie and of the newly-discovered workprint of the film, but I'll just say that the actor who played Debbie at age 6 is named Jackey Neyman Jones. Shanka, her family's dog, played The Master's doberman. Her father, Tom Neyman, played The Master. JNJ is now an artist, and she teaches sci-fi themed online art classes at Dumb Industries. She also published a memoir in 2016 called Growing Up with Manos: The Hands of Fate.
There are lots of ways to fall into the Manos rabbit hole, but I recommend following Jackey, who is funny and gracious (I don't know her, but she shows up for livestreams and other events, and she is a fan of good-bad movies, as well as the child star of one of the best-worst!)
Can't wait for you to watch the 10 worst reviewed films on Rotten Tomatoes, it's bound to happen at some point.
Literally dissociating to the concept of Uwe Bill’s career over here
Hello Evasive,
I am nicely requesting a review of Letterboxd's top 10 lowest rated films. I believe that your reviewing of the material is something that needs to be in my life. I do hope my nice demeanor persuades you to accept.
Kind regards and best wishes.
Letterboxd bottom ten sounds fun, it would be legendary if you could get the Sunday Movies guys to guest star so they can try to guess each movie based on reviews first
Nothing like a Helix mattress to sleep off those bad movies like The Hottie And The Nottie and Saving Christmas.
Terrible Bollywood movies that I would recommend are Humshakals (2014) and Mastizaade (2016). Humshakals has people consuming cocaine bread and vodka pancakes. Mastizaade has a main character greet a Thai man with "konnichiwa". Also both films are not fond of queer people.
Great recs. There are lots of "bad" Bollywood movies that are at least really damn entertaining. Radhe ... isn't.
@@keythah I’ve watched a single bad movie named Jungle Love from Nepal and it was an unofficial reboot to a c grade Bollywood adults movie of the same name! What a Mockbuster!
That dog mask movie did literally traumatize me for years, somehow I got it in my head that it was the movie Cujo lol. Then after discovering what Cujo was I knew it wasn't that, I had no idea what I watched until now. Thank you, now i can stop thinking about that terrible green dog.
Disaster Movie is the only time I walked out of a movie theater half way through the movie. I think I was 10 and the chipmunks scared me so much 😭
But thank you for your service 🫡 I love these kind of videos. Please, make one about the letterboxd lowest rated too 🙏🏻
P.S. Are here any other Italians that know Birdemic and Manos because of Yotobi? 😂
Credo di non averli mai sentiti prima, però gli darò un'occhiata! Recentemente avevo scoperto un canale "Antro Dei Cliché" che si occupa di film brutti/dimenticati e ho trovato i sui video davvero ben fatti.
Actually thinking of a joke to make about Disaster Movie would be 100 times the effort than the writers ever put into the entire movie
25:03 I Mandela effected this thing as being a 70s movie for ages so simply hearing you say “1966” was a shock
I'm surprised it's that late. It looks like it was made in the 50's.
@@Apanblod hah! I can kinda dee that to
Woah, Uwe Boll was doing The Producers IRL? That's incredible. Also now i know how to pronounce uwe, thanks
Birdemic and Manos are masterpieces of "good bad". Don't belong in this pile of excrement.
Just to be clear, "bad bad" insults your intelligence; "good bad" insults itself.
I work with a guy who genuinely, unironically thinks epic movie and its sequals are good. He can't be convinced otherwise
would love to see you focus on different genres and your personal best and worst of each and why.
ex: your fav horror movie vs worst
"Letterboxd has a different bottom 10" *also still has Disaster Movie*
The first time I was watching this video I was watching Arrested Development in the background, so when the Arrested Development intro played. I was like oh my God, what a coincidence.😂
I feel like “there was a good cut of this movie that the studio executives ruined” is just the new way for people to avoid admitting they made a terrible movie. It’s obviously true sometimes, but there is no good Fantastic Four (2015), there is no good Suicide Squad (2016), and I will bet everything I have ever owned that there was never a decent Son of the Mask at any point, from script to edit.
The only conclusion I can draw is simply not enough people have experienced the befuddling majesty of Neil Breen.
The title got me to subscribe. Because who doesn't enjoy some media self harm once and awhile. Top notch stuff!!
What I learned from this video: if a German director challenges you to a boxing match, you're pretty much screwed.
I remember watching Saving Christmas at a religious group gathering. That was something, somehow enough to piss off the religious and non-religious alike
LOL, the main male character in "The Hottie and the Nottie" (Joel David Moore) went on to be one of the scientists in "Avatar" a year later.
I think I'd actually like to see Paris Hilton in a movie where she plays a paranoid, reclusive billionaire who shows up in a few scenes as an expository character where her natural flatness (and actual experience with elite society) actually makes the character work.
after watching Son of the mask i had about a week of nighmares, thx for the reminder :/
Godddd I remember I watched son of the mask so often as a kid, it was one of my favs, although I think whichever version I had of it definitely didn't have?? An evil green sperm scene??
I forgot to mention apparently it was cut out of the U.S. release but it was in some other international versions
@@EvasiveOne Ohh! Huh thats interesting, 🤔 I don't know where exactly my mum bought it, but I watched it on DVD in iceland. Maybe they were selling the US vers there (wouldnt come as a surprise, iceland lacks eu status/restrictions)
@@EvasiveOneHey, Latin American here, in my country (Venezuela) they didn't give a single fuck, I saw the sperm scene at the tender age of 5 years old XD
@@EvasiveOne Italian viewer present! I saw this film just one time, on TV, and among the few memories I have there are a couple of frames with these cartoonish spermatozoons.
Thank God I didn't recall the kid and the dog in CGI, instead.
Number 10 sounds like a typical Steven Seagal movie tbh.
Paris Hilton just had the greatest delivery of a fart joke!
My ex-girlfriend convinced me to watch Epic Movie with her while we were still dating. She kept telling me "you're gonna be laughing all night" among other things. I sat through the whole thing and never even so much as cracked a smile. You ever had an awkward moment where you went up to a friend to show them a funny video, only for them to be stone-faced the entire time? This was the 1 hour and 33 minute equivalent of that.
on behalf of all Indians, im sorry that you had to go through an abomination of a movie, that is, "RADHE"
18:33 On Cinema reference. Automatic best UA-cam video ever
To be honest, you've got to have a high IQ to understand the Birdemic franchise and the deep themes included, the audio mixing symbolizing the absurdism and chaotic noise of society is a great example.
9:07 My first kiss happened at the end of Epic Movie as Bubba Sparxxx's Ms. New Booty pulsed through the theater and that's a memory the AI overlords can never take from me lmao
bro I was binging arrested development and just finished season 4 and randomly turned this video on and was jumpscared. I thought you were a psychic
I’ve never heard of your channel or anything prior to finding this video randomly as I scrolled down my usual videos. As soon as the Arrested Development intro began, I knew you would be a channel I had to subscribe to.
Thank you for the content!
evasive fully pandering to us on cinema heads now @ 18:34 lmaoooo
Haven't seen any of these movies but I feel my entire soul is on fire just by watching a glimpse of them from your videos.
Radhe was unanimously panned, yes. But there are far worse Bollywood Movies. You are bang on with your research regarding the film and its reception. This is the level of detailing missing from most people who cover indian films from the west. Kudos to you! I hope you explore some gems from the wide variety of content we produce too! Cheers :)
Thank you so much! I started watching Bollywood films a few years ago and I’ve seen I think 15 now (20 if you include Satyajit Ray films). I have many more I’d like to watch I’ve loved most of the films I’ve seen! 💖
It should be noted that Boll cherry-picked his opponents, openly rejecting any potential opponent who had ANY sort of combat training, intentionally cultivating a line-up of out-of-shape nerds he could pummel with ease..
Fun fact about Epic Movie: Willy Wonka was played by Crispin Glover
GEORGE MCFLY????
While watching this video, I've been persuaded Willy Wonka in "Epic Movie" and Michael Jackson in "Disaster Movie" were played by the same actor, but Wikipedia invalidates that. And yes, it appears Willy is Glover, and I am: "What the frick...?"
Yo, you dancing in Saving Christmas is an all time UA-cam classic moment.
thank you for your contribution to the art of torture reviews.
