★★★★★ · Mesa of Lost Women...Wow! · Aitchondo · 2009-08-12
Crazy script, lousy directing, even from a sometimes decent director, some good acting, tongue in cheek, a lot of lousy acting, poor production materials... I loved it! Jackie Googan rules. So bad it's good... well, not good, but a must watch.

This movie is so bad it's good. Wow! The music is maddening! I am trying to picture them putting it together and saying, "This sounds great!" The guitar is horrendous and relentless. The voiceover is stilted, the acting is lame, the editing is a disaster. I loved it! Pure fun and prime MST3K material. Just the dancer in the bar is worth it.

When you find a no-budget movie from an unknown studio with two producers and two directors that features Jackie Coogan as a mad scientist (gulp!), you know there's whole lot of shark jumpin' goin' on - but believe it or not in a good way. Not enough? You want more? How about menacing dwarfs? Still not enough? Okay, we'll toss in spiders turned into busty babes who become indestructible café entertainers. No, it's not a comedy, but is unintentionally hilarious, and yet another example of a whacko screenplay, bad acting and awful direction somehow combining to make an entertaining jaw-dropper…
★★★★ · Entertaining! · katpooh9 · 2009-11-07
This is a great movie to watch with a bowl of popcorn on your lap and a propeller beanie on your head.
