    Can someone please explain to me why this topic only has one reply after nearly three weeks-by myself?

     

    And don't tell me it's because the movie's too obscure. Death Spa was a no-budget, indie B-movie that barely even got a release in theaters. Til There Was You was a high-profile wide release by a major studio featuring A-listers in its cast, and it was one of the worst movies of its genre ever produced. HDTGM should do a podcast on this cinematic abomination ASAP.

    I'd love to hear the HDTGM gang rip this movie apart. This must be one of the worst rom-coms ever made, and that's saying an awful lot. One of the most contrived stories ever put on screen, a cast that includes both Jennifer Aniston and Sarah Jessica Parker-and can someone please explain to me what's up with all the cigarette-smoking in this movie? Seriously, there seems to be an emphasis on smoking in this movie that's incredibly annoying and is totally effing pointless.

     

    Here's the trailer, for anyone who'd be interested (though I don't know why):https://www.youtube....h?v=Rr6CIRxJq0I

     

    And I just wanted to add that if this movie were made today, I could easily see Katherine Heigl in the Jeanne Tripplehorn part and some generic, untalented hunk in the Dylan McDermott part. This movie sucks. Ugh.

    This one's for "Corrections and Omissions":

     

    Early in the film, when we first meet the Bible salesman and the "road twitch", they're in the car, the twitch is listening to the guy on the radio talk about the reports of machines coming to life and attacking people, the salesman is babbling about his life, so the twitch tells him to be quiet, and the salesman replies, "What's wrong, n!gger sweet-thing?!"

     

    That's right, the Bible salesman actually calls a white woman the n-word. WTF?

     

    Also, the very first shot of the movie is of the planet Earth, but if you look carefully, you'll notice the image is upside-down.

    I second this, this would be the perfect tribute to Craven. I've always loved this movie, not exactly a masterpiece but still entertaining. Always thought Kristy Swanson was hot as Hell in it, too. I would love to see HDTGM cover the fact that Swanson gets killed by her father after coming home from Thanksgiving dinner.

     

    Talk about the Worst. Thanksgiving. Ever. (except for maybe the very first one)

    The fact that a serious issue like sex trafficking is used in the plot of a movie this stupid makes it exploitation. Besides, white supremacy is a serious issue, too, but that didn't stop HDTGM from covering Top Dog recently, now did it?

    This so-called "comedy", starring Dudley Moore and a "Growing Pains"-era Kirk Cameron (this was obviously made before he became a Bible-thumping nut, since he uses Jesus' name in vain at one point here), is quite possibly the worst of the three movies released in late 1987-early 1988 (the others being Vice Versa and 18 Again) in which an adult switches bodies with an adolescent. This review from the late Roger Ebert pretty much perfectly sums up what's wrong with this movie:http://www.rogereber...r-like-son-1987 I'd say it'd be perfect for HDTGM.

    There''s some funny stuff here, but there is one joke that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. Bobcat is cooking hamburgers outside his trailer home. Bobcat asks Don the horse if it wants a hamburger, and Don goes, "No. Do you want a peopleburger?" Apparently the writers of this movie forgot that hamburgers are made from cows, not horses.

    I don't see how an awards-bait Vietnam War drama from Norman Jewison really seems like the type of movie that HDTGM would cover, no matter how bad it is. I think the filmmakers had good intentions here. They probably were trying to make something good, even if they failed at it. Plus, the subject of Vietnam is sort of weighty for HDTGM, don't you think? It would be like them doing an episode on a Holocaust drama.

     

    I just don't see how doing a podcast on this movie would be any fun, at all.
