Synopsis

A football player and his friends travel to the planet Mongo and find themselves fighting the tyranny of Ming the Merciless to save Earth.

Reason to Watch

Studio Ghibli back soon!

Campy charm and a knowing sense of humor help to overcome a silly plot involving a spacefaring ex-football player, his adoring bevy of groupies, and a supervillain named Ming the Merciless.

Synopsis

With a plan to exact revenge on a mythical shark that killed his partner, Oceanographer Steve Zissou (Bill Murray) rallies a crew that includes his estranged wife, a journalist, and a man who may or may not be his son.

Reason to Watch

Much like the titular oceanographer, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou's overt irony may come off as smug and artificial -- but it provides a unique brand of whimsy it's worth the dive.

Synopsis

Once two overzealous cops get suspended from the force, they must delve into the criminal underworld to get their proper compensation.

Reason to Watch

From the director that later on went to make "Brawl in Cell Block 99" and "Bone Tomahawk" is a film as grim and grinding as its title, Dragged Across Concrete opts for slow-burning drama instead of high-speed thrills -- and has just the right cast to make it work.

Synopsis

In the future, the Japanese government captures a class of ninth-grade students and forces them to kill each other under the revolutionary "Battle Royale" act.

Reason to Watch

Streisand into popularity in Japan, this film is an ultra-violent 2 hour struggle for survival where only one may come out alive to satisfy a dystopian governments demands.

A genre setting film that carefully balances bloodshed and character development to create a gripping audience-invested story.

Synopsis

Humans fight mutants in a post-holocaust world.

Reason to Watch

As suggested by Mitchy!

The film is terribly low-budget but there is a great deal of ingenuity with the special effects and action sequences. Does that mean they're good? Nope!

Synopsis

People from a small town are attacked by evil radioactive tree roots growing in the forest.

Reason to Watch

A 1993 Canadian-Italian horror feature film directed by Aristide Massaccesi. The same team behind the masterpiece known as Troll 2. At least five characters complain about the ungodly Alaskan heat. The boss at the nuclear power plant might be the greatest actor ever seen on film. His tone of voice never changes. Its an amazing feat of line reading. This man deserved an award for this performance. No one can be that horrible. Truly a commentary on the robotic nature of our everyday lives. This man deserves our respect. Also look out for those flying roots. Tremendous special effects work permeates this film. Check out that helicopter crash. Was that a fisher price model? I do believe it was. And how about the toy truck bulldozer.

Synopsis

An alien creature impregnates a woman who gives birth to a man that was abducted by aliens three years ago. The man reconnects with his wife and son for a sinister purpose.

Reason to Watch

It's an incoherent slab of twisted ideas and episodic plots, some quite random (a dwarf in a clown costume springs out of nowhere) in quite a bewildering British low-budget Sci-fi / horror production. No wonder why this is considered a cult favourite.

Synopsis

A cyborg is programmed to kill a scientist who holds the fate of mankind in his hands. He fails and hides in a diner in a desert run by a woman who likes him. The people who sent him are after him and so is the local arm wrestling champ.

Reason to Watch

Hands of Steel is not a particularly good movie, but it certainly is a ton of silly fun. Italian B-Movies have a weird flavour all their own, and this one is no exception. European schlock-meisters obviously love American movies and want to make their films look and feel as "American" as possible, but something almost always feels like it got lost in the translation - even when they use American actors and film in U.S. locations, like they did here.

Synopsis

Dar, the son of a king, is hunted by a priest after his birth, so he is sent to grow up in another family. When he becomes a grown man, his new father is murdered by savages. He discovers that he has the ability to communicate with the animals, and after that, Dar begins his quest for revenge in this Conan-like movie.

Reason to Watch

Following "Conan the Barbarian", there were a lot of Barbarian trash movies in the 1980s. The best of them all was "Beastmaster" because it had creative production design, colorful photography and even some ideas of its own. And they don't skimp on the animals
