Attack of the 50 Foot Cheerleader

This farce is by far one of the WORST so called" movies" of ALL time! Bad acting,concept, casting, and the script must have been written under the influence of HEAVY DRUGS!! Treat Williams and Sean Young HAD to be desperate or clinically INSANE to act in this farce!

It was low key porn mixed with the WORST CGI I have ever seen! My eyes are actually BLEEDING!!

Do yourself a HUGE favor avoid this DUMPSTER FIRE of a flim. To add to the foolishness they renamed it BLUE RESIDENTS!!

This is such a mess, the makers and writers should be criminally CHARGED with felonius assault, with intention to cause BLINDNESS!!

This movie is just so hilariously bad there's no need to point out why. You KNOW it's bad from the get-go and the title. I watched it assuming that was the case and was still entertained...to a point.

The main actress Jena sims is absolutely stunning in the title role. She will be proud of this when she's 50. She looks like every 18 year old college freshman's fantasy girl (even before she enlarges!) and that hair!

It reminds me of the cheap movies USA up all night with Rhonda Shear used to play in the 90's...just un-edited for cable. There is ample topless-ness in this movie (But they are obviously fake so make of it what you will)

If you are under the influence of ANYTHING fun and have 85M to waste, you could do a LOT worse. If you are sober do NOT attempt this movie or you will suffer eye rolling, mouth agaping and constant pointing out the cheesiness of the FX, Sets and Dialogue...beware, not for you!!!

It's bad on purpose. Fun slapstick movie straight out of the 80's great for mindless entertainment.

Aspiring college cheerleader Cassie Stratford (Jena Sims) consumes an experimental drug that grants her beauty and enough athletic ability to make the cheer squad. The drug has an unforeseen side effect -- Cassie starts to grow and grow and grow.

Let me be up front on my choice to give this film a 6. That rating is purely based on the "fun factor" and not on any critical merit. The acting is nothing special (though I have sen worse) and the effects are rather poor. This should not count against them, though, because they obviously knew it was going to be cheesy.

The cameos they were able to secure are impressive. Ted Raimi has a decent sized role as a scientist, and both John Landis and Roger Corman appear as professors. The scene with Landis and Corman alone makes the film worth watching for any horror fan.

Attack of the 50 Ft. Cheerleader (2012)

* 1/2 (out of 4)

Lame take-off on ATTACK OF THE 50 FT. WOMAN has scientist and average looking Cassie Stratford (Jena Sims) taking an experimental drug that turns her into a beauty. At first the drug is great because she looks good, makes the cheerleading squad and is popular but soon she sees the side effect in that she can't stop growing. You know, I've always wondered why some bad movies turn into cult classics that are fun to watch while others are just downright bad. It seems movies from the golden age of "so bad they're good" films just happened by chance. Moving like the original ATTACK OF THE 50 FT. WOMAN or ATTACK OF THE GIANT LEECHES just got lucky when they became entertaining. I really do think that if you set out to make a camp film then you always fail and here's the perfect example. It really seems like everyone thought they could just make fun of the set-up and everything would fall into place but that doesn't happen. This is a pretty lame film from producer Roger Corman who thankfully makes a cameo with John Landis, which turns out to be the most memorable moment in the film. As you'd expect, there's all sorts of cute girls getting naked but there's very little outside of this. The entire story is pretty stupid, there's no laughs to be had and there's really just nothing going on here that makes you care about anything. It's overly stupid in a bad way and this is where the film tries to be camp but it just doesn't work. I thought Sims was good in her role but one wishes she had something better to work with. Fans of Sean Young might want to check out her few scenes but she doesn't get too much to do. ATTACK OF THE 50 FT. CHEERLEADER is far from a fun movie, which is a real shame.
