  1. covergirl 1984
    A moderately successful fashion model meets a wealthy entrepreneur who's determined to make her a superstar by controlling every aspect of her personal and professional life, but she's strong-minded and resistant to his methods.

    Trailer

     

    Found this on Youtube and I think it is perfect fodder for he HDTGM gang as there is just so so so much to talk about and so many things that don't make that much sense, then we have the 80s fashion (well there had to be as she is a model) and the alarming amount of Robots that can do nothing that our entrepreneur has just for it seems no eason at all.

     


  2. It's no very often I find a film that I have never heard about or read about online that during the whole of the run time I am sittig thinking WTAF

    well that changed when I watched this Dial: Help from 1988, its an Italian film but don't worry its not dubbed or subtitles as everyone speak english

    its described as:
    A psychic finds herself tapping into the "energy" of a deceased phone operator. She also finds that her friends soon begin dying mysteriously. An investigator determines to track down the cause.

    Trust me she does nothing to say she is psychic and 99% of this film is utterly bonkers and makes so little sense and I havent mentioned the fact that there seems to be sentient landline phones in there along with what seems to be a sex scene with a phone (well she just seems to like that phone a lot,who knows what would have happened if it had not tried to kill her), there is so much I want to mention here but really do youself a favour and give it a watch as I don't want to ruin it for you.

  3. I watched this years ago expecting not a great film but a decent one thanks to De Palma being attached and DeVito and Keitel, where the f**k id it all go wrong this film is utterly sh*t beginning to end. It doesn't know what it wants to be, trying to be a comedy at times but nothing is funny and trying to be a gangster film but the gangsters just are not what they should be


  4. This film is legitimately amazing, not so bad its good not guilty pleasure it is just an amazingly fun watch. From beginning to end its just packed with so much and would give HDTGM so much to talk and laugh about, I can't believe they have not done this one yet it is an 80s hidden gem. So glad I bought it on blue ray when I first say it 3 + years ago as I get to watch it all the time now

  5. Watched this the other night for the first time, I was convinced I had seen it before but I remembered noting of the film except from things you would have seen in a trailer.

    By the end of it the only thing I could think was that this is perfect subject matter for HDTGM, there is so much  about this that is just way out there and so many its that make no sense.  There is just so so much to talk about and mock I don't even know where to start.


  6. This is a film I really wanted to like but ended up being very very disappointed by.

    Although the robot at the lab that looks like it was made for £10 and helps out is brilliant, its sassy and cracks all the jokes, if it had been used more in the film it woudl have been so much better for it.

    I would like to second this one. Jason, June, and Paul could have a field day with it.

    This was recently added to Amazon Prime. I saw this as a kid a bunch of times and of course never realized how shitty it is until a rewatch this week. It's chock full of famous people and has so many ridiculous and cliched scenes. Judge Reinhold and Fred Savage's performances are wild and really cringe inducing. It has held no cultural significance and has been pretty much lost to the annals of time... and it's easy to see why.

    I second all PollyDarton's thoughts on this

  8. We all know sequels usually are never as good as the original and even less so when it comes to comedies.  But I actually do not understand how they could take a film that was so good and beloved as Caddyshack. Mean this film is basically the first with a lot of the best parts ripped out, less plot and less gopher. They then refill it with re-used and bad jokes and add a sprinkle of Dan Aykroyd instead of Bill Murry but trying to be as mad a Murry and failing. Such a disaster of a movie and not even in a good way.

    I think the one thing that I knew about this movie is that it was an enormous bomb, but that the soundtrack spawned a mega-hit song. Looked it up and yep, “Everything I Do) I Do It for You” by Bryan Adams came from this movie.

    It wasnt a bomb though, it made about $390M at the boxoffice back in 91 and was the second-highest grossing film of that year
