The Wicker Man from 2006 may be the newest movie to reach the so-bad-it's-good level of movie nirvana. That is until Werner Herzog's Bad Lieutenant remake comes out. That one also stars Nicolas Cage. That guy is gold:
Start saying, "What are these fucking iguanas doing on my coffee table?" and "You don't have a lucky crack pipe?" before everybody else does.
The first ten minutes of Evil Dead II are a mini-remake so you won't be lost if you haven't seen the first Evil Dead. Maybe that also means that remake is the theme. I just found this amazing video of the MST3K guys (they come up a lot, don't they?) seemingly making fun of Evil Dead II, but really the guy who made it just took jokes from other shows. Spoilers!, it shows the first 5 minutes of the movie.
Isn't there a mandatory time length before a remake is allowed?
ReplyDeleteYou mean how the other Bad Lieutenant just came out in the 90s? Well the last Exorcist movie was a remake of the one a year previous. But that was more like a 'do over'. Same with Hulk. I propose 20 years.
