Blue Demon

This is certainly among the worst movies of the still young 21st century. Good luck making it all the way through this one, in fact I seriously think the only other people who will do so are the cast and crew, their friends and neighbors. Cardboard acting, lame plot, soundtrack straight from a 1970s XXX flick and special effects on par with a high school stage production. The writing is just awful and leaves the viewer feeling insulted by canned plot prefacing and background information.

This film bills itself as a sci-fi/action/thriller, but I actually thought it was a comedy - everything about the film is so bad I thought it was a spoof.

After seeing this film, I've come to the conclusion that, Plan 9 From Outer Space, should have won an Oscar. Bad acting, bad plot, bad dialog, un-scary sharks. The list could go on and on. I actually sat through this entire film, hoping it would get better, but Noooo! Now Jeff Fahey's character was the only redeeming factor in this movie, and that was for the comedic value of his part. Poor Jeff must have needed some serious pocket cash, or he must be a close friend of the Producer's. There were several cute girls in the movie, Whitney Sloan, being one of them, but even they couldn't save this poor excuse for a horror film. If you're an Ed Wood fan, you might like this flick, but I think Ed's movies are far far better than this...

...you know you must be watching a United Film Orginization production. Rarely does a film contain so many inappropriate elements. The score is far too jazzy, character's expressions are frequently out of place, and the spit-and-polish general is not nearly spit-and-polish enough(his name tag is lop-sided, his ribbons out of order). It is never fully explained why the air force has jurisdiction over killer sharks, although it is quite likely that the studio had surplus uniforms and decided to go with what they had to save money. In addition, there are precious few actual shark attacks. Is the movie bad? Yes, but it was at least somewhat entertaining.

Saw this listed on a premium channel on cable and thought it could be mildly entertaining despite the over-used motif of "killer sharks." I was wrong. What a waste of time and energy...not to mention BORING. Won't say it was the worst film of all time however I've not seen any worse than this one. Poor acting, weak overall story, lame exposition and cheesy special effects. In fact the special effects were only slightly better than the graphics on a Vic-20 or TRS-80 computer (OK, that's a bit of an exaggeration).

No wonder there are no goofs listed for this one; I wouldn't know where to begin listing them.

And to think was such a fan of Jeff Fahey as The Marshal.

While I agree with most of what has been said about this movie, the statement of 2 deaths is false. I saw three before i had to turn it off. Yes there was the two construction men, but what about the sorority bitch at the beginning? Did the commenter forget about her? that would make 3 before the explosion one. Cricket Selna was about the only good thing about this movie from what i saw. and yes i am biased cause she is a friend from college and now i am 4 step from Kevin Bacon but that is besides the point.

This movie is good to MST3K, have a laugh, if you can handle it.

That is about all i have to say about that. So yeah, if you have any problems with this comment, deal. It is difficult to make this movie recommendable to anyone, but i am trying to be good and not totally trash it.
