It is exactly what the title said.

Just downloaded i mean paid for this and it was a pretty rad movie. Lots of glop and it definetely fits in great with the other grindhouse films (PT, DP, Machete).

There's an absurd amount of violence. If I were to rate the gore I'd put it right under Rambo 4. Aside from that, there are so many absolutely cheesy moments and parts that try to be so cornfully touching but all in all, this movie is about heads exploding, and it's pretty sick and disgusting.

I think when I scrounge together a few coins I'll go hit the gumball machine and try to score a blu-ray copy.

Favorite quote: "When life gives you razor blades, make a baseball bat covered in razor blades."

I'm torn on this. I love Rutger Hauer, but it looks just as stupid as cowboys vs. aliens



Seems like the kinds of movie aimed at people who just got into this wild, brand new "bad movie" craze after seeing megashark vs giant octopus. But, I'll prob end up seeing it anyway

It is stupid, but it knows it's stupid. I'm pretty sure the budget was about a grand.

I kinda prefer movies who dont try to be deliberate but rather become cult films years after they failed

I kinda liked it, but it was mostly because of Rutger Hauer.

Hell, he made Crossworlds half-interesting


Though it would have been way better if Jack Black had played his Terrible Wacky Nineties Sidekick instead of the One Scene Wonder

It reminded me of robocop 2 with slick as the kid beating and drugging up a dude in an arcade. They shouldve called it hobocop.

This.

I like old shitty b-horror, but I can't stand modern ones. They just try too hard.

Hobocop would be a perfect title if they ever make a sequel. I'd heard mixed reviews but found this movie horribly fun to watch. It feels like a cheesy, gory, ridiculous movie should.

I bought this on bluray when it first came out, but only recently got around to watching it with a friend of mine.

She hates me now, because it gave her nightmares. What a wimp.

Are they ever going to make a sequel to that?

Yeah, I went and looked up that crappy wiiware 64 port they were making. It still isn't out.

They can't do anything for themselves except suck and die.

The port was announced in 2009 so Clayfighter is pretty much already a dead franchise unless it makes it's revival on Wii U and considering they no longer have Fallout they may look deeper into there roots to further their interest. Not like they have anything else going on.

I read on their forums that they cancelled the Wiiware port of it, and it's scheduled for DSi store only now.

Oh, and they cancelled that Earthworm Jim project.

It's only a matter of time before EA or Bethesda buys them out and makes Earthworm Jim a competive FPS or open world RPG. That's how things work today right?

I'd actually rather have that than nothing ever again.
