Thunder Tronic

Was having a bad movie night with some folks when I got to see this little gem. Don't get me wrong, this is not a great movie, but it is a rare creature onto itself: a bad movie that's made with a sense of self-awareness of what it is and makes it work. Cyber-C. H. I. C. never takes itself seriously and, if you do, you're not watching it right.

It's silly, the dialog is ridiculous, the characters are over the top, and the acting is the perfect amount of stilted. Even the terrible "action" scenes (in which RoboCHIC casually shoves baddies) fits right in with the vibe of the movie. If you enjoy schlock like *Auntie Lee's Meat Pies* or *Attack of the 60ft. Centerfold*, you'll likely find Cyber-C. H. I. C. an entertaining couple of hours.

For a movie night, my friends tried to pick one good movie (Amadeus), and one bad movie (this one).

And true to form, this film started out awful. One character had a long, rambling dialog that just went on and on.

We were about to end it, when one of us said "Hey! That's downtown!" And sure enough, downtown Colorado Springs, where we were living. For the rest of the movie, we were trying to outdo each other at naming where the scene was shot.

The "scientist" character was truly awful, and he unfortunately had most of the dialog. The other characters played it more campy, which made them more tolerable.

This definitely takes the cake as the worst B-movie out there. As if someone made it over the weekend. I guess the ex-playmate does help, but I mean come on! Unless this is some tip-of-the-hat to pornographic cinematography, it's pointless! There were some jokes laden within the film that I laughed at, purely at the expense of the writers attempt at comic relief. Ya, and why is the movie called cyber-chic when the whole time in the movie she's called robo-chic? Whoops! Must have skipped that day in editing! The robo-car, here's another one that was hard to decipher as intentional, or just in line with the quality of film, a fiero with no hood or grill is supposed to be the modern marvel of robotic automobiles, Ha!

this piece runs in Germany as "thunder tronic" on the empire video label with the tagline "the ultimate challenge".

reading the cover lines with that terrorist-thing sounded well enough to take the tape and watch. I AM EASY TO PLEASE !!! but after 16 minutes i asked my self how to survive all 102 minutes. i mean, after a while you know that a movie is in a special way tooooo bad - it won't get better.

the story is so ridiculous, nothing fits, it isn't even funny. some bad movies are as bad so they get good again. not here. it is a pure waste of time. i liked the book-idea "how to build an atomic bomb" in relation with that bug hunting atomic terrorist nerd, even that idea got painful overdrawn over and over again later. the police department chief, the dogs, that dumb rocker-gang, the pimp, R.O.B.O.CAR and everything else - it could have been a nice one...

yeah... ultimate challenge... is surviving that 102 minutes...

is worth 10c to complete your label-collection or you like sado-masochism.

Oh man, if there is ever a worse movie made, then somebody is going to have to die. This movie was so bad, it gave me a week of that feeling when you want to rip somebody's heart out. This movie deserves to die. Die die die die die!!!!!! If you ever find this movie in stores, take it out back, and beat the crap out of it until it doesn't even resemble a video. Only Hobgoblins can compare to how bad this movie was for me to watch. I believe it was like sticking a knife into my soul, and twisting it a quarter rotation every other second, on the second. Yikes did it ever suck. It's too bad that Burt Ward were to ever be affiliated with this horrible movie. I liked Burt Ward as Robin. He was cool then. But not now.
