The War Wagon. Enjoyed this, John Wayne and Kirk at their best as long as you dont take the wild west too seriously. Howard Keel as a Red Indian? Very questionable though.

You watched a Sparkly film?! lol lol

The sparkly film was doused with humor at the stupidity of the plot, the inability of the actors to speak their lines without significant pause breaks, and the stupidity of the plot. I know I mentioned that before, but it needs to be mentioned again.
You know it's bad when the next 4 films (after the first) garner a 4.5 rating. Good thing young fans fawned over the muscular boys in the movie or it would have been a financial failure. I'm just as shocked as anyone that the third film made $300mil, and the next one made
$710mil!!!! Cleopatra Jones was a much better film and it didn't make near as much. Cool Corvette though.

Humor or not, I would still have to see the film. :p

I think this was directed at the "girlie" nature of the film.
Which is why I can't watch it without the Rifftrax commentators.
I've seen plenty of bad vampire, and wolf films, but the only GOOD one I saw where they were combined was Underworld.
With comments like this though, the movie is much more enjoyable...
Two characters and then a rifftrax commentator Mike Nelson
Bella: So, you're a werewolf.
Jacob: Yeah. Last time I checked.
Mike Nelson [as Jacob]: So I'm pretty good at basketball.

Of course a jab at Teen Wolf. :D
Then of course as the Native Americans are recalling the time they found a vampire, we have this added commentary from Mike Nelson again.
Billy Black: One day our warriors came across a creature.
[Flashback shows a group of Native Americans confronting a vampire wearing a coat with extremely long wrist ruffles]
Billy Black: It looked like a man...
Mike Nelson (as Billy): But its wrist ruffles showed that was a lie.
Billy Black: ...but it was hard as stone, and cold as ice.
Kevin Murphy: (singing) He was willing to sacrifice our love!

See, sparkly movies aren't bad at all with friends helping you through it. :D

"THEM" - B - The first and the greatest of the Giant Atomic Insect movies. Plausible, well acted, and compelling enough for you to forget how cheesey the Ants look. I must admit I'm really surprised H-Wood (in its interminable quest to rape the past for any scrap of originality and revenue it can steal... See the SECOND remake of "Carrie") has NOT attempted to re-do this masterpiece.

+1 to Worf's opinion of "Them". It really is the best of its "species". And I think the ants looked pretty good, especially for the time it was made.
(If I hear a belt or bearing making a high-pitched squealing sound, I always think of giant ants attacking.)

That sound... Godzilla's primal scream, the Death Rays from the 1950's "War of the Worlds" are all sounds that will stay with me until death! Good Call!
