And you thought shit couldn't get worse (or better?) In case you don't know about Mega Shark vs Giant Octopus... http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?topic_id=109175 http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=93329 Yep, why and how is The Asylum still alive? Why is the CG still so bad? Why does it still look like it's done with a $100 budget? Has anyone seen this movie yet?  | ||

Bus companies love to show pirated DVDs of movies like these in my country on long overnight trips. I'm sure there's a bus out there that's probably screening these movies right now, lol. | ||

Although the movies might look terrible, they are just making films that people enjoy. And money speaks louder than the quality of work. | ||

Apparently they make a lot of extremely low budget movies that are terrible, but as long as a few people see them/buy them, then they can make some profit. Often times anytime a movie is announced, the asylum will make a parody and try to release it right after the other one, so people will be interested and watch both. (For example, my cousins directed a sunday school musical and a knock off sherlock homes movie right around the time their counterparts were released). Extremely low budget and fast filming/production make the costs very low for making these types of movies. And ALL of them get aired on Sci-Fi Channel (I refuse to use that stupid fucking name). | ||

Preliminary idea for Mega Snake vs. Gatoroid: Take a drink every time one of the two female leads calls the other a bitch. Take a drink every time someone sees a monster and instead of running, stands there screaming. Take a drink every time there's a catfight and a male character just stands there and watches. Take a drink if a character dies through their own chronic stupidity. Finish your drink if one of the monsters takes down a plane again. | ||

Seriously, these movies are so ridiculous that they are borderline satire. I assume that SyFy is going for the shotgun approach for trying to churn out "so bad it's good" movies, though at what cost. Heck, maybe in the future when they have the sequel to Mystery Science Theater 3000, we'll get a very nice commentary on these ridiculous movies. | ||

My personal favorite cliches are.. 1) "Creature Cam" Whenever the group of racially diverse men and women are walking around in some wilderness, there is always a shot from the creatures "eyes" following the group, usually modified with some filter. 2) Only one male and one female making it out alive. 3) There are two possible endings for a movie like this 1. the monster really isn't dead and in the final scene of the movie, it zooms in somewhere and the creature attacks the camera, credits roll. 2. the monster had babies and they are the subject of the next movie. I've seen several occasions where both of these happen at the same time. Double points! Always a great time! | ||

Some of us love watching terrible movies for comedy sake. SyFy is completely aware of it's niche. It's a great channel to turn to when nothing else is on. I watched Megashark vs. Giant Octopus with my roommate one day. We hadn't heard of it before, just thought it was another SyFy movie. Then...... I don't think we've ever laughed so hard at a movie. Edit: already been posted, but w/e. It's that good. | ||
