Review of Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus (2009) by Tony P — 21 Aug 2009
I'm genuinely pleased there is a market for this "so bad it's good" monster genre. However, the realization of this market's existense has put fans like myself in a difficult spot.
Film enterpenuers are doing their best at being intentionally bad, thereby building a barrier between films of accidental awfulness and deliberate campiness such as this. So while MS VS GO totally completed its goal of being a joke, it still isn't Ed Wood.
While there are some hysterical moments, it's really just mindnumbing. I can only recommend seeing it while under the influence of alcohol and/or if it is followed by a Q&A with Lorenzo Lamas.
