Review of Howard the Duck (1986) by Erica V — 15 Feb 2010
I wish I'd seen this movie as a kid so I could wax nostalgic all over it, but I didn't, so I can't. This movie... man. I usually love the cult stuff, but once the surreal nature of the duck protagonist wore thin, this movie was just painful.
I also had the impression that the Howard of the comics was aimed more towards adults, so to see him in a purely kiddy movie was disconcerting. I will say, though, that the stop-motion demon at the end was pretty well done.
