Never mind being mugged on the subway, watch out for being eaten by C.H.U.D.!

Merry February -

Every month we dig deep in the crates to bring you the best in the worst cinema. This month, we dig deep underground to bring you the 30th anniversary of "C.H.U.D."!

A 1984 cautionary (and newly relevant) tale of nuclear waste, homelessness, and fashion photography, C.H.U.D. stars John Heard (Sharknado 4eva FTW) and Daniel Stern as two concerned New Yorkers battling back against monsters lurking in the subway system.  When that lurking turns into people being eaten, the guys go on the attack, fighting not only the mutant cannibals, but a government agency desperate to hide a dark secret. It's C.H.U.D.-tastic!

Let "REPO JAKE" take you away!

Crappy new year!

Thus begins another marker in time of the unending parade of terrible, hilarious cinema.  We're happy to have you along for the ride.  Speaking of rides, make sure you're up-to-date with your payments, or you'll get a visit from "REPO JAKE"!

This 1990 direct-to-video stars Grizzly Adams -- er, Dan Haggerty as an ex-marine looking to restart his life in the quiet, laconic town of Los Angeles.  Great choice, Jake.  Just like the choice of becoming a repo man.  Almost immediately, Jake becomes embroiled with the Mob, the porn industry, demolition derby, and awkward dinners with his beautiful neighbor.  Action ensues and the bad guys' asses are repossesed!

It's a can't-look-away stir fry of bizarre acting, misplaced rap songs, crummy editing & lighting, and Dan Haggerty.  Total gas.
