I'm not done yet! I guess straight to video has always been a thing, but befofe you just got tantalising glimpses of box covers in the video rental shop, now you can get a proper taste of the generic awfulness.

Some of these should be available to watch right now on a streaming service near you!

"Don't touch anything!" [guy touches something]. Scientist in breathy voice: "I've never seen anything like this." THEIR GREATEST THREAT... WAS EACH OTHER. So help me I could consider watching this one.

Might have posted this one already, they all look the same after a while.

Seth Ickerman brings you the amazing world of ICKERMAN

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UYzR-hcd6BU

CGI heavy fractured dreamscapes looking pretty good tbh

Big ticket stuff belongs here too.

amazing thread

Ha, only two in and I'm already thinking MindGamers looks so unutterably terrible that I must see it.

would definitely watch Space Tripping god help me, seems like the SF I Accidentally Domed Your Son

I think there's 8 or 9 here I would actually consider watching, maybe we need a support group.

yeah i'd probably watch most of these that aren't big budget comicbook movies but i wd be lying if i said i wouldn't want some level of chemical support

Would happily join in on a live watchalong if any of them come up on netflix but I've never got my head around torrenting films really so this may not be feasible.

That was a terribly-written sentence, sorry.

That Russian one! OMG.

can't work out if Ickerman is a trailer for an actual movie or some sort of MRA thing looking for crowd-funding

Apparently Iron Danger, which looks completely bonkers, is based on the Kalevala? Okay then.

Would be up for a watching party, surely netflix is the natural home of this kind of thing.

Yeah, I've watched a lot of enjoyably terrible things on netflix (and a few surprisingly good things I'd never heard of too). Somehow me & my friend ended up watching this *TWICE* while very drunk:

Top thread addition.

Btw can we get tuomas in here to tell us exactly how many giant nazi robot tank dogs there are in the kalevala?

tuomas is badly needed currently -- i want to quiz him about finnish cops (and the finnish language)

The well isn't dry yet. For those who loik their soi foi wiv british accents:

Bruce got bills to pay

Pretty sure I've seen this episode of Black Mirror already

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A0VoDi_fvTI

Hey it's not all killer robots, we can do feel-good too

Maze thriller is a genre now! Alec Baldwin throws a chair! Skin from Skunk Anansie!!!

A little stock footage of rockets goes a long way

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BmK8vV9YSL8

'Person alone in room must confront great mystery' normally does it for me but this looks zzz

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g0Qhjpm8m4M

this otoh looks highly promising

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WoooAUiQqy0

sucks to be a post-apocalytpic gooseberry

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5k5tlNHUCj0

that's it until the well fills up again.

Iron Danger is genuinely terrifyingly bad. tt was saying it looks like a film by a religious organisation

also quite funny that only britishes are posting itt

Lots of big-name suckery in that last batch. Z for Zachariah sounds like it would've been more interesting kept closer to the book (which I just looked up, never read it).

I'm quite up for watching Passengers, cheesy as it looks.

In fact I'll probably end up seeing a load of these.

I think I watched too many of these in one go, had very odd apocalyptic dreams last night.

(Also I've now forgotten which one Passengers is, they really do converge into one.)

It's the one with pavarotti

lol

Oh yeah, I have images off so can't tell if youtubes are embedded and don't get the preview image to refresh my memory. The first one in this thread, right?

(NB it's the one w/ that shitty Imagine Dragons track, yes?)

(Sorry, I don't think that needed 'NB' really, blech)

watched passengers

as a sociopath who has ruined the lives of several poor undeserving girls i guess i should appreciate what the film is trying to do for me, but it is bad. very very bad

has anyone ever actually seen Chronicles of Riddik? I always think of that when the topic of Sci-Fi I refuse to watch on principle comes up.

Seen a minute of it. It's laughably bad (not that Pitch Black is anything to write home about either).

I enjoy watching trailers for these kind of movies so much. Someone needs to figure out how to make a feature length movie structured exactly like a movie trailer, I would watch that.

our Joel explained the plot to me and my jaw wouldn't undrop for an hour

trailer does a heck of a job of burying the lede. but who is the real villain, the creepy guy who robs a girl of her future for his own pleasure or the spaceship designer who doesn't build in any fail safes or human oversight?
