<3 Trash Cinema

So, if I'm understanding this correctly, I can write about absolutely anything that I feel like talking about. Just in case I'm mistaken, I'll just continue to blog about movies in general. I've noticed that I tend to enjoy just about any movie that I come across in some way or another -- Granted, some of them I like considerably more than others, and there are a few that I will probably never have the desire to watch ever again, but (I think) I still enjoyed them nonetheless. I mean, I can't remember anything excruciatingly horrible about any movie in particular that I've seen where it completely ruined the movie for me; Most of the time, when something is really lame, it makes for a good laugh. Or at least a chuckle. Or a snort. Or something.

Alright. I take back what I just said; there's a couple exceptions. The absolute worst movie I have EVER seen is definitely under the genre "Trash Cinema". At least, that's what it's under on eBay...
I believe the title is Olum Savisci; The final battle ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UzaWJTOlca4 )
is probably the most annoying yet funny thing I have ever witnessed in a full movie. The movie uses maybe five or six sound effects total during the entire fight scene. There are also several other movies with that actor in it (Cüneyt Arkın) with about the same quality; There's a Turkish Star Wars, Korkusuz (aka Turkish Rambo), and Son Savasci to name a few. They're all equally corny, equally low quality, and some are even funnier than the one I linked earlier.

Here's another awesome scene you should definitely watch
(from Turkish Rambo):!
If anybody can figure out where/how he gets all those rockets, I'd be more than happy to hear it. It's been bugging me for awhile now. Not really though.
Anyway, none of the movies tend to really have a plot (especially the Star Wars one. The video is uploaded by the same guy as the above two videos on Youtube, so all you have to do it click their name to find it), and tend to involve lots of explosions and/or yelling. Which isn't usually a bad thing. Oh, also, if you so choose to watch the Star Wars clip, try to figure out what exactly is going on. And, if you can, figure out why that one guy is jumping all over the place randomly ripping off heads, and also why that causes massive explosions. I'd be more than happy if anybody can figure that out as well.

When you first showed me these a while ago I just dismissed them pretty much stupid. Although I think I did indeed lose a few IQ points from watching them, they are kinda funny now. I really liked how in the Rambo one he pulls 15 rockets out of nowhere, and it looks like the rockets are being pulled with a string or something. The special effects are awesome!

I agree with you that these are some of the worst movies but they are kind of funny also. I like the Olum Savascisi that one made me laugh when he is just owning them all. I just loves the sound effects in those movies too.
