Awesomely [BAD] Movies
Okay, so I’m gonna level: I have been having what Eli has cheerfully described as “a string of bad luck.” I lost my mind in an interview, left my keys at home by mistake this morning, and of course, there’s the haircut! Overworked, Underslept, I could do with some escapism. And that’s when we turn to the movies. I’m gonna tell ya, don’t waste a dime on any of that crap Hollywood’s churning out. Mincing hipsters acting uncomfortable with adulthood? Bleagh. Michael Bay-directed 3D movie based on toys from your childhood? Barf. You’ll forget these movies before the end credits are finished rolling! Don’t even bother. Stay in and watch something you’ll regret for the REST of your LIFE! XANADU (1980)
GREASE 2 (1982)
If you liked Grease, but wished there were more overt sexual innuendos, might I introduce you to Grease 2? See if you can spot all three songs that are unabashedly about doin’ it. It’s just as catchy, just as campy, and Michelle Pfeiffer plays the ingenue. Genius! SHOWGIRLS (1995) NIGHT OF THE COMET (1984)
In what was to be the year of my birth, a comet passed too close to the Earth and turned all who witnessed it into coffee grounds. And occasionally zombies. Who’s left to fight them? A Valley Girl prostitute, her cheerleader sister, and an overdrawn stereotype named “Hector Gomez”. If you’re one of those girls, like me, who sometimes can’t decide between a horror movie and a chick flick, this is a really great compromise.
