Everyone has their guilty pleasures, whether it is chocolate, Korean television dramas, or even Irish coffee. Among my guilty pleasures I have to include watching cheesy, truly awful science fiction "creature features." These movies are, unlike some major Hollywood films that simply come off as ridiculous, never intended to be high theater, or to be premiered at red carpet events and break box office records. These are made quickly and are generally tongue-in-cheek ridiculous the whole way through. There is just something about their terrible acting, their ridiculous plots and horrible special effects that entertain me to no end. Believe me, I enjoy good films just as much as the next, but there are some times when I just want to sit back and watch a bad movie with ice spiders , giant sharks , and prehistoric beasts . But if there is one thing I hate about bad science fiction movies it is some of the terrible, outlandish science that gets put in--and nothing raises my hackle...
