Barbie & Kendra Storm Area 51

Gotta love Full Moon for silly things like this, it's very silly and some of it really made me laugh out loud. Lots of funny dubbing and stuff. If you like a stupid silly time then switch your brain off and enjoy

Was pretty funny. The Arnold voice was the best. Looking forward to watching the other two movies. Hope they make more.

Within the first five minutes I was already writing the review in my head, once the TV show came on, it got a little more entertaining. There is nudity in this movie, probably should be rated a MA at minimum.

The movie is watchable, just. Reminded me of an Australian film in 1993, Hercules Returns (tt0107103). That's how you dub over a film, just a tip.

I feel like Full Moon and Charles Band are really hitting rock bottom here... and that's saying something!

First of all, this is hardly a "movie," clocking in at 49 minutes (and WOW did I have a problem staying awake). It consists of "host" segments with the titular Barbie and Kendra, but the remainder of the, er, film is old movie footage (two movies senselessly spliced together) that is dubbed with more, er, hip and current dialogue. I realize other movies and shows have experimented with this technique, but I couldn't help but be reminded of the infinitely superior, clever, intelligent, and FUNNY minds behind MST3K and Rifftrax. They don't flat-out dub movies like this does, but the structure of Barbie & Kendra Storm Area 51 are eerily reminiscent of something previously done much, much, much better. That fact may or may not have factored in to my white hot hatred of this rather short foray.

I didn't find one second of this "movie" even mildly amusing. Worse still, one of the movies they dub is some grade-Z sci-fi skin flick, where I was SUPER curious what was actually being said! The dialogue presented was, frankly, insulting.

After watching the first 5 minutes of the two stars/hosts of this hot mess act like morons, I literally said out loud, Do these chicks get naked? (They don't). They are totally insufferable, but only appear sporadically to annoy you. Problem is, IT DOESN'T GET ANY BETTER! Maybe someone younger (and dumber) would find something of amusement. The running time alone shows a lack of commitment. Jeez, at least take the sleazy sci-fi movie, and run with it. In the other movie they dub an "Alexa" character, which is as dumb as it sounds.

My first experience with Charles Band's BARBIE & KENDRA series of films, a lot of which seem to have been made on the cheap (even by Full Moon standards!) during lockdown. This one hosts a couple of B-movie starlets (including Band's wife Robin Sydney) playing a pair of dimwitted bimbos who get into various scrapes with Corona zombies and the like. However, this turns out not to be real film at all, but rather one of those MST3K-style spoofs which shows a couple of older films and dubs new, dumber dialogue over the top. It's extraordinarily stupid, and even a Schwarzenegger imitator doesn't add any fun, meaning that I was cringing throughout.
