The Only Bad Movie with Academy in the Title...



Is also the only bad movie with Reanimator in the title: Reanimator Academy. While I knew this was going to suck, as it is a part of the Tomb of Terrors box set, I wanted to believe. I mean, it has Academy in the title, usually a sure sign of greatness. The odds were against it, however, as a movie in the Bloody Nightmares 100 movie set has about a 1 in a hundred shot at not sucking. And I mean sucking! Like Hoover Vacuum, Deep Throat sucking. This shot on video atrocity is about a Jeffrey Combs look alike who lives in a frat. The frat is pretty lame, except for the fact that they have big parties in the daytime where they drink Bud Dry and wear boxer shorts on their heads. So they are actually pretty awesome. One of the main stars of "Redneck County Fever" is in attendance at their party. Seeing as this was also filmed in Texas, its making me think that this unknown guy is some sort of regional Texas shot on video star of the late 80s/early 90s. Anyways, the Jeff Combs look alike brings a rotting rubber head back to the frat and REANIMATES it! It turns out that it is an old timey comedian, so the head makes non-stop wisecracks. His crack about Rosanne Barr is pretty good. This film was so painful to watch that it is actually painful to write about. With that, I will cut my review short. That is, unless I feel more motivated about relating the sheer pain and misery that this crap movie bestowed upon me later.

Dude, I cannot believe you are doing this to yourself. I thought that I had some masochistic movie going choices, but this is ridiculous! I don't even like most of the "cream of the crap" when it comes to SOV stuff, let alone the dregs. I hope you make it out alive.

Its killing me. I watched THREE Todd Sheets movies last night. Three. I can't even bring myself to write about it yet. I rented a bunch of shot on film movies though, and I have tomorrow off, so I'll give myself a little break.
