Bad Netflix is back next Saturday (10/20) for some Halloween fun!



The next Netflix Instant Bad Movie Marathon is coming up soon, on Saturday, October 20th.

The festivities begin at 7:30 Central with Galaxy of Terror (1981), the Roger Corman Alien-esque rip-off. Next up is Chillerama (2011), a movie featuring gay werebears, a giant killer sperm monster, Anne Frankenstein, and so much more! Last will be the 1966 green-Martian-babe epic Queen of Blood.

If you want to join in, just hop on Twitter and watch the movies along with us. Everyone is welcome to join and encouraged to participate in their own way. (take pics, live blog, etc.) We all use Netflix, but if you have the film already you can watch along with that, too. We announce when each movie starts so we can stay relatively in sync, then we tweet our hilarity and/or displeasure with the hashtag #badnetflix. Everyone says stupid stuff, laughs, Twitter usually cuts one of us off for over-Tweeting, and basically have a lot of fun. It’s that simple.

See you this Saturday, October 20th!

On March 10, Bad Netflix RETURNS! and we're going in deep!


That's right, Saturday, March 10, 2012, the Bad Netflix crew is BACK! and we've got a night full of amazingness in store for you. Bad Movies, Stock piles of Booze, a back list of movie riffs, and Twitter. But, since we've been gone for a few months now, kicking back and enjoying our winter, we've decided to let you in on the fun. That's right, YOU get to help us pick the 3rd film for this marathon. To the right, you will find a pole, check it out and vote! The winner will be featured in the grand finale of Bad Netflix.

Here's what we've got in store for you:



The Barbarian twins are back in this buddy cop comedy of epic proportions. Roddy McDowall, James Doohan (Scotty of Star Trek if ya don't know), and David Carradine star. Directed by the guy that played Jambi the Genie in Pee Wee's Playhouse.


DEEP SPACE

This alien ripoff is sure to excite! We read the title for one review and we could read no further. "Features cinema's best (and only) bag pipe seduction scene" The late great Bad Netflix favorite Charles Napier stars alongside Ron Glass (Shepherd of Firefly) and Julie Newmar (Catwoman from the 60's Batman). Directed by the guy that brought us Evil Toons and Alienator, the always amazing B Movie Madman: FRED OLEN RAY!

And now your turn to decide. Here's a brief description of each and a link to IMDb.
  • Humanoids From the Deep - Roger Corman classic featuring half man/half fish dudes terrorizing a small town.
  • Unmasking the Idol - the OTHER Duncan Jax movie (the first we watched during another Bad Netflix Night: The Order of the Black Eagle) A Ninja James Bond ripoff with a sidekick Baboon that knows karate.
  • The Wasp Woman - the ORIGINAL 50's Wasp Woman. Synopsis: Woman...turns into a wasp.
  • Alligator X - Made for SyFy awesomeness featuring a dinosaur Alligator ripping up Hillbillies.
  • Gor - Synopsis courtesy IMDb: "American professor Tarl Cabot is transported via a magical ring to planet Gor, where he must help an oppressed country overthrow its evil king and his barbarian henchmen"
  • Vicious Lips - written and directed by Albert Pyun. An all girl rock band from space needs to land a gig on the other side of the galaxy or their toast!
  • Rumpelstiltskin - Ole Rumps is defeated in the olden days and then resurrected in the 90s. Hilarious hijinks ensue as he chases a woman and her baby.
  • She - take everything great about post apocalyptic 80s movies and puts it in a blender. That is She.
  • The Chaperone - This choice is per request from a fan, WWE's HHH family comedy.
  • Poolboy: Drowning Out the Fury - Only the greatest movie ever made...and never released. This movie pretends it was made in the 90s and was way too racist and awesome for audiences at the time. Now, the special edition has been released and you get to see it. Stars Kevin Sorbo and Danny Trejo.
Pole closes at noon on the 10th. Any ties will be decided by The Bad Netflix Crew Captains.

What time should you tune in?
(all times PM)

Double Trouble - 90 minutes - begin 8:30e/7:30c/6:30m/5:30p

    The October NIBMM Official Recap Post


    The October NIBMM was a blast! We had old-timers and new faces, lots of jokes, plenty of booze, and more movie badness than you can shake a stick at.

    We usually end up accidentally saving the worst movie for last during our marathons, but this time I think we can all agree that the worst movie was our first: Die You Zombie Bastards! A charming love story about a serial killer and his horny cannibalistic wife, this movie features stolen jokes, bad acting, and more fake penises than you thought existed.




    It was a tough slog and the last 20 minutes of tweets were filled with anguished cries of mercy, but we made it through together. Some riffing highlights:


    chcircus Cody Hamman
    Not even robots and ninjas can save this movie. #badnetflix


    gsears3 Bucky Sears
    Anyone else think they wanted to make a movie but only had $286 and a love for misshapen dicks? #BadNetflix


    CavepearlEKG elizabeth k gray
    I wish I could say that I have never had rats in my pants but...#badnetflix


    DorknessRising Gabe Klingele
    I can't believe I actually watched this movie from start to finish, sober and alone, before. #BadNetflix


    Tromeric Eric Martin
    @CavepearlEKG It is a metaphor about the economy and our inner turmoil and racial guilt. #badnetflix


    comicvixen Casandra Porter
    Who knew that the blue smoke would be such a vital plot twist? #badnetflix


    vinstem Vincent
    Wait, skantily clad chicks chasing the MONSTER?! #BadNetflix


    dtvconnoisseur Matt Poirier (DTVC)
    This movie's downfall: the wig budget and fake penis budget superseded the script budget. #badnetflix



    Our second movie was a last-minute substitution thanks to Mr. Gable, who discovered Netflix had One-Eyed Monster on instant watch. It was the hit of the night, an adult satire with good acting, great jokes, the best exit line ever uttered by a horror movie victim, and a really wonderful performance from the late Charles Napier.




    chcircus Cody Hamman
    "I think Hell sounds like 30 men being massacred by a dick." - Charles Napier #badnetflix


    DorknessRising Gabe Klingele
    The best thing about that scene is that it means someone has the credit of "penis puppeteer" on their resume. #BadNetflix


    vinstem Vincent
    I'm hugging myself in panic #BadNetflix


    comicvixen Casandra Porter
    Female Torture Tactics 101 #badnetflix


    CavepearlEKG elizabeth k gray
    So much for Jizz Master Zero. #badnetflix

    Napier's take on the typical PTSD-induced war monologue was no less than inspired, and he got a lot of love from us during the film, as did Ron Jeremy and Amber Benson. You could tell NIBMMers were sucked in (haha) because the tweets slowed down considerably while we were watching, but we weren't entirely silent:


    glitterninja Stacia
    #badnetflix Is everybody ok? Did we lose anyone at the kegel scene?


    DorknessRising Gabe Klingele
    @glitterninja Depends on what you mean by "lose anyone". #BadNetflix






    dtvconnoisseur Matt Poirier (DTVC)
    Porn stars suck at snowball fights #badnetflix


    Tromeric Eric Martin
    @dtvconnoisseur Depends on what kind of Snowball fight your talking about. #badnetflix


    The final film was a thoroughly mediocre affair called Assault of the Sasquatch, your standard dude-in-an-ape-suit horror flick with the usual poachers, police, and damsels in distress. It's a remake of Assault of Precinct 13 with Bigfoot instead of hoodlums, so the intent was never to be serious. The legendary Don and Murph have extended comedic roles in the film as members of a Sasquatch Society, hunting down the beast as it wreaks havoc in the city.




    After all the penis we were subjected to in the first two movies, it was difficult for us to acclimate to a non-penis-based plot line in Assault.

    gsears3 Bucky Sears
    I'm looking at the art work on netflix and trying to figure out where dicks fit into this equation for Assault of the Sasquatch. #BadNetflix

    gsears3 Bucky Sears
    Maybe its a BigFootLong. #BadNetflix

    The general consensus was that the movie needed more Sasquatch assault and less everything else, but I think we also proved the theorem that the worse the movie is, the better the riffs are.

    365HorrorMovie Micah
    Assualt of the Sasquatch needs more Sassy. #badnetflix

    DorknessRising Gabe Klingele
    @glitterninja The slight inconvenience of the Sasquach. #BadNetflix

    comicvixen Casandra Porter
    That #Sasquatch kinda looks like #JohnTravolta in #BattlefieldEarth. That look works better for the #Sasquatch. #badnetflix

    CavepearlEKG elizabeth k gray
    OMG one of those extras looked like Brandon Sites. #badnetflix

    chcircus Cody Hamman
    Some British guy is lurking through this movie like the Man in Black in Halloween 5. #badnetflix

    DrJimmyTerror James Terror M.D.
    I just realized... this is John Carpenter acting as Snake Pliskin vs. Chewbacca! #badnetflix

    vinstem Vincent
    Now, THERE'S you messin' with Sasquatch commerical #BadNetflix

    dtvconnoisseur Matt Poirier (DTVC)
    When will a movie ever have Sassy's dramatic back story? I want to know what his life was all about. #badnetflix

    LupusAnthropos Lupus Anthropos
    ...and thus ends yeti another #badnetflix movie.

    Thank you to everyone who participated! Stay tuned to find out when the next Netflix Instant Bad Movie Marathon will be held.
