Sventoonie (2022– )

Love Svengoolie. Sventoonie? Getting Better!

[5/10 · 3 April 2022]

I just watched the Sventoonie treatment of "House On Haunted Hill." It rushed through this classic movie in 15 minutes, adding a few bad jokes along the way. It spent the remaining 15 minutes with filler nonsense that had virtually nothing to do with the movie. None of it was funny.

Bring back "Star Trek" (the original series) in this time slot!

UPDATE: The newer episodes of Sventoonie are spending more time on riffing bad movies and less time on irrelevant bits. I am therefore increasing my rating to 5 stars!

Dangerous Men (2005)

Should Only Be Watched Via RiffTrax

[5/10 · 11 December 2021]

I guess Jahangir Salehi Yeganehrad, a.k.a. "John Rad" or "John S. Rad" was overly ambitious with this movie (e.g., Director, Producer, Screenwriter, Music, Cinematographer, etc.). He stretched himself too thin, and everything got scrambled in the process. In addition to the poor acting, the film has no continuity and makes little sense. However, the RiffTrax guys take full advantage of this nonsense, and have a blast with it! The RiffTrax version actually rates 10 stars, so the 5 stars above is kind of a compromise.
