Cybernator

Somebody else said it, and I'll agree: Robert Rundle is the new Ed Wood. I seriously want to know how this movie got made. It's absolutely terrible, and I mean that in every possible way. The acting, writing, production, sets... it's all so cheap and half-assed and absolutely wonderful to watch. If you're looking for a movie to put on after the party dies down a bit and there's just a handful of people left, all wasted and continuing to get wasted, this is the one. It's probably less fun to watch by yourself than with a room full of people, but regardless, this movie is an absolute joy to watch. That is, if you like bad movies. And I do.

I was surprised to see that six people actually voted this a 10 rating. Surprised because I didn't think there were six people on the entire crew.

This movie redefines the phrase "low tech." Set in a world where cyborgs move among us, the sets, costumes and props can best be described as "sixth grade drama club." There are some entertaining things about the movie, however. Most of the acting is hilarious, which would be great if it were a comedy.

The casting is sub-par, even for such a cheapo flick. You have to suspect that more than a few of the actors were also investors. If not, the casting director should be keelhauled under a moving Hummer. It's also likely that a substantial portion of the budget came from investors who paid extra to have their scenes cut after viewing the finished product.

Lonnie Schuyler as the lead male is deliciously bad. Cult bad. A fully accredited graduate of the raise-your-eyebrow-and-snarl school of acting. I'm happy to see that he has had a long career (no doubt due to this masterpiece) starring in such classics as Legend of Skull Canyon and Hell's Paradox. Hopefully some day there'll be a Lonnie Schuyler Festival.

To say he stands out in a cast loaded with bad actors is no empty claim. This flick packs wall-to-wall ham. There are, to be fair, two good actors in the movie. Two chicks sitting in the strip club audience, on screen for all of ten seconds, while a hard-bodied lovely flails like a crippled baboon in front of the cheesiest backdrop ever featured in a film (or a strip club).

There is one performance which is not to be missed. Approximately sixty two minutes into this epic, the director serves up a three hundred pound belly dancer, shaking her blubber in a skid row alley. This scene alone will qualify Cybernator as sure fire party viewing for 10 year old boys.

I am making it my life's quest to hunt down all of director Robert Rundle's other films. He is the new Ed Wood.

Hey...don't buy this film...don't watch it...try to keep away of it...IT'S AWFUL...I haven't seen any worse movie before. You can see that it's always the same room...that the special effects are bought at a supermarket and so on....

There is hardly a chance to make a worse film than this one

Right from the opening credits, one knows that CYBERNATOR simply must be seen!

Once again, those dastardly cyborgs are up to no good. Picture a bald guy with aquarium airline tubing coming out of his head! Genius! Or, low-rent Borg mixed with pitifully-realized HELLRAISER demons! Astonishing! These synthetic humanoids kill a politician and laugh robotically.

Next, we're off to a night spot / strip club, where we're introduced to LA police officer, Brent McCord (Lonnie Schuyler), who's in love with a stripper named Blue (Christina Peralta).

Oh no!

Eeevil cyborgs have arrived! Either that, or Mr. And Mrs. Terminator are in town. This occurs just as McCord proves his love for Blue by giving her a dollar bill with his teeth! Blue's working her way through school, don'tcha know. Poorly choreographed mayhem erupts, and another politician bites the dust. The dullness of the ensuing shootout is difficult to describe. Of course, this all has to do with a vast, government conspiracy, which is also dull.

Everything blunders along. Alleged "actors" move around and spout "dialogue" that makes us wonder if they're all artificial lifeforms! With no real rhyme or reason to any of it, this movie only exists to cause great pain.

EXTRA POINTS FOR: #1- The botched, horribly shot, eternal love scene that will cause you to laugh until your guts burn! #2- The "big twist" that actually makes things less suspenseful! #3- The belly dancer scene! Oh! Those finger cymbals! #4- The hysterically tedious, karate-filled non-finale that will put you straight into REM sleep!...

This movie is quite possibly the signle worst movie ever created. Not only does it look like it was filmed using camcorder for a high school production class, but the acting is below that of most invertebrates.

How MST3K missed this one I'll never know.
