(Yet Another Bad Film) Once we enter the realm of bad films which are current, "YOR" leaps immediately to mind. It is strange (for me at least) to see a movie where the sound track doesn't jive with the performers lips *only part of the time*! Yor is a boob, and the Darthatron clone which runs the "evil island" looks like something from Buck Rogers. In short, a wonderful movie for the whole family. :-) While not a terrible film, "Krull" makes one wonder. Those folks had more ways of doing something for which there is no other way than one can imagine. And the scene where he arrives from his "hard journey" and meets his soon-to-be-wife is hysterical also. In short, a wonderful movie for the family pet. :-) eric ..!ihnp4!washu!eric

Two that I havn't seen mentioned yet, but deserve to be: Jabberwocky, which came from some of the members of Monty Python. My comment at the time was "No, no, let's not leave yet; it's Monty Python (sort of) - it *has* to get funny." -- Wrong-o. Logan's Run. This wasn't *BAD*, it was merely bad, which is worse, because you can't even laugh at how bad it is, you merely suffer. What's even *worse*, is that it's so mediocre that you might even sit through it. Then they tried to make a TV series out of it. 'Nuff said. Ray Schnitzler, HP Labs
