I believe this will cure people with that Team America Montage song problem.

Just bizarre...

My personal favorite clip.


Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the entire movie.

EDIT: Topic named changed at the request of Kaebora. I can see how people could get mixed up.

You may want to rename the title to include "Turkish Star Wars" in there. I got confused at first. (I always am with those topic titles that aren't straight forward. Hrm.)

I definately will be taking a look at this film. I always am a sucker for a good parody.

OH GOD!! I have to see the whole of that movie. I love cheap skit movies like that

I couldn't stand to sit through the whole thing. I'm a sucker for a GOOD parody. This movie is poorly done. The shots look tacked together rather than carefully edited, the lighting and camera work is god awful, the sound is as if they only had one channel to work with, and the jokes aren't all that funny to me. Making a movie where how badly done it is is the joke, is never funny in my opinion.


A low budget in the 80s doesn't excuse the horrible lighting and camera work... and improving that would have at least made this movie half decent.

The funniest thing about this movie is that it wasn't intended as a parody, it is serious. The sequel IS a parody, but not the original.

<--is Turkish

But it WASN'T a parody of badly made movies. It just WAS one. As Doruk Golcu said, it was meant to be serious, and that's what makes it so funny. They really thought they had something there. This movie in particular is interesting to me because usually when a film is considered laughably bad, like Plan 9 From Outer Space, it usually doesn't make me laugh (at least not without the help of some dude and a couple of robots, but that's a bit different), but this piece of crap is funny not only from being badly made, but because it is just so ridiculous, especially during the fights (there's a great WTF? moment at the end when the main character is attacked by a group of mummies, so he rips off one of their heads and throws it at one of the other creatures, which proceeds to explode for no reason).
