I'm on a roll with bad movies

Tonight Mortal Kombat is on! It has yer man who was the original highlander in it. With a hideously bad white wig on.

ETA: Highlander guy can shoot lightning out of his fingers!

Oh man, I vaguely remember loving that movie. Perhaps washed over love from the game but probably I just have no taste.

[meganbmoore.livejournal.com]

I believe this form of taste is best summarized as "Cheese! Glorious cheese!"

Which is to say, it's a very popular taste in these parts.

I still remember the "FINISH HIM!" growl and that crazy laugh from the games. Those games were my childhood.

I remember this movie! Unlike the other, I remember it being entertaining in its badness. Also, I uhm, may have been talked into the TV series an hour or so ago.

My fondness for campy 90s/2000~ adventure shows is far too easy to exploit.

THERE WAS A TV SERIES? Why does no one tell me about these things...

Mortal Kombat: Konquest.

YES. WITH Ks.

Did you think Liu Kang was ready?

[lesbiassparrow.livejournal.com]

NO ONE IS READY FOR...MORTAL KOMBAT!!!!

Villains being able to shoot lightning out of their fingers seems to be normal for these types of movies.

Oh, I hope Double Dragon is on tonight. That would complete your set of bad gaming movies.

Shooting lightning is the most awesome skill ever. No one will convince me otherwise.

This movie was gloriously bad.

I love it.

It was a thing of beauty. Absolute beauty.

Wasn't that Christoper Lambert? I adored him in the remake of Tarzan back in the 70's. I adored Andie McDowell who looked just delicious in the 1890's fashions. She had the most gorgeous hair.

But Christoper could be up there in an actor's hall of shame for the number of cheesy movies that he's been in.

Cheese, glorious cheese. Who needs taste when you've got cheese?

It was him! He does have a glorious record of bad movies. They should crown him king of them forever and ever.

Which is better...

... the awesome 90's movie-ness of its effects (I used to go WOW on that thing coming out of the ninja's hand in the forest) OR the amazing dance hit with the guy shouting MORTAL KOMBAT!!! in the chorus? Oh my childhood...

I loved the lair. It's not enough for it to be Mortal! Kombat! There has to also be a lair.
