Raiders of the Damned

Please, people! You can't judge this "film" simply on the merits of its acting and screen writing! It's really all a matter of taste.

Think about it. If you happen to *like* bad movies then this would be a *good* movie, now wouldn't it? Ever seen "Showgirls"? "Godfather III"? Classics! And this one is worse - which makes it better!! Get it? Hey, even "War of the Worlds", starring Tom Cruise and directed by Steven Spielberg blew chunks! And that one cost at least 400 times more than this film. And the producers of "Raiders" didn't try to shove some nutty religion down your throat in some tent on the set of the movie. Well...frankly...they could't really afford a tent. But if they could, they would never try to fill your little brain with such nonsense.

And this movie has a sword. And Richard Grieco. "21 Jump Street" rules! Hey, what ever happened to that DeLuise guy and the cool Asian butt-kicker guy? That was such a cool show. But even they didn't have swords.

I say...see it and judge for yourself. Then, go out and rent it (or buy it if you're smart) and invite your friends over and have a rad double feature with "Showgirls". If you're even smarter, you'll show "Killer Bees" with Michael Caine as a bonus. Or "Trog"! "Trog" is awesome! Hey, if Academy Award nominee Joan Crawford can do a movie with a savage, prehistoric caveman, you can cut this movie some slack and grab some popcorn and have a little Saturday night fun.

This movie kicks Zombie booty!

Aired in the UK on 19th March 2006 on the Horror channel, i was expecting a enjoyable zombie flick. I'm a big fan of these types of film so a small amount of bad acting and a bad script wouldn't have bothered me. But this film was TERRIBLE!!! It was almost a remake of George A.s Day of the dead. Within about three minutes of watching this film i could tell it was going to be bad. But i thought i would give it the benefit of the doubt hoping it would get better. It got worse! A lot worse. I've got to be honest i think I'm going to give these low budget, horror flicks, only ever gonna be shown on Horror channel films a miss from now on because there not even remotely enjoyable. I cant understand how there even shown on T.V. But don't take my word for it. You may even enjoy it. I doubt it though.

To watch this film, one must understand Three things... Three things... A good drinking game. Understanding the lack of budget vs Resources. Allowing to shut your mind off and have a sense of humor. Once that is achieved you can sit back and enjoy the wild ride.

The Visual effects given limitations where acceptable and the acting was tongue and cheek. Don't expect the walking dead treatment. This movie is a blast to watch with the right kind of beverage.

The lighting and cinematography lacks in depth and continuity, but, again, it's cheesy entertainment. Made by and for the nerds for a late-night pizza bash. Bring the chips and beer. It's so bad it's good.

The film was no worse then some I've seen. Richard Grieco was terrible. But the one guy that was a total standout was an actor by the name of JC Austin. I can't believe he hasn't been cast for more films. The guy is so handsome and that body!!!!! In the right film I know he could be great! I think people have to see past the film and take a good look at the actors. Do you think all the big time actors started in A films. I don't think so. The actors are only as good as the directors and the script. I think given the right opportunity for JC Austin he could go far. And possibly be a big time actor. I have been fallowing him for quite sometime. He's been around since the Perry Mason shows, Ford truck commercials, Asteroids, Nintendo commercials etc. An adoring fan

This clearly was met to be a funny parody? Oh, please tell me it was, because its so BAD from every aspect that after the stink of bad becomes affirmed and firmly ingested into your brain, this film is dead, not even funny. So camp that it wreaks.

Oh, well, and they say, we all can't make films, wrong. This film shows even the childish and deeply retarded can succeed in film torture.

OK, say, I'm 12 years old, a bit bored and nothing else to do. This film becomes a center piece for wasting my perfect 12 year old's day off from school.

Sad.
