Warning: Do NOT Flip Through Cable Movie Channels Late At Night
Nothing good will come of it.
But you might learn a few things.
Little bit of insomnia so I was flipping through movie channels I never watch. This is what I found on 3 successive channels in the middle of the night.
1) The Juggalos made a movie.
Juggalos are fans of the Insane Clown Posse. They like to wear clownish makeup, gather once a year and act like fools. They also made a movie and Showtime paid to air it.
Well, actually, I guess I helped pay to air it since I subscribe to Showtime. For shame. I just wish I had a picture of the Old West prostitute-mother in full saloon showgirl dress and clown face. Maybe I’ll update when I run acorss this movie again as I’m sure I will.
2) British kids are nuts.
This little sociopath led his friends in a vivisection of a cat in a greenhouse.
At least he drugged the cat first and spared it from the pseudo philosophical metaphysical bull crap he spouted while he did it. No idea why half the boys are shirtless. I did not stick around to find out.
The movie was called The Sailor Who Fell From the Sea with Grace and starred Kris Kristofferson. Consider yourself warned.
3) James Brolin makes horrific career choices and may have Alzheimer’s.
That’s James Brolin starring in a mess called Bad Girl Island. It’s from 2007. Something to do with a “sexy” (aka anorexic) black widow type woman. Based on the 3 minutes I watched, it was beyond bad. Not in a “so bad it’s funny” kinda way, just in a “so bad it should be destroyed” kinda way.
Does James Brolin know he’s had a long movie career and should have enough money to not have to work unless it’s a good project? Does he know Celebrity Net Worth thinks he worth $50 million? Would he know a good project if it knocks him unconscious? Does he know he’s shacked up with Barbra Streisand and that bitch is RICH? Like RICH. And she’s got an Oscar and could help him pick better movies? Does he know he’s got a son who’s also a successful actor and could give him a few bucks so he doesn’t have to appear in crap like this?
Oh well, those are 3 lessons I learned late last night and I’m happy I can share them with you.
lmao, I can’t slight you for this at all, I think it has been well established on this blog and SH that I watch the worst programming on televison, how I missed these I know not, they are now on my list.
I’m used to seeing the occasional crap movie but these 3 were on back-to-back-to-back. I had to splash water on my face to make sure I wasn’t dreaming.
Hope you didn’t watch them all in their entirety!
Thanks for that post AOM! Good to see I’m not the only early A.M. channel surfer who sometimes ends up in the cable twilight zone
*Judging by your posts I bet you’d be a great person to view the Oscars with. Hint, hint…….an AOM Oscar blog??
Funny thing is, I never go to the movies anymore. I look at it like this: Most movies kinda suck but you might not know that right off the bat. If I’m watching at home, I can turn the channel. In a theater, I probably won’t leave cause I just paid $12. I can almost always wait for it to come out on demand or end up on HBO.
so, do you recommend one more than the others? they all sound excellent, but i only have so much free time that i must choose wisely.
I’d go with the juggalo movie to see the hooker/saloon girl/mother. The one with the vivisection was really disturbing.
thank you, AOM. looking forward to it. it would have been a shame to have picked the wrong one, but i’m pretty confident you have steered me in the right direction.
Naturally. I’m just trying to enrich your exposure to true culture. You’re welcome, as always.
Always watching out for us, AOM. I only have basic cable, so there’s a good chance that I may have to miss these fab sounding late night movie feasts. Darn it!
