THE SECRET OF MY SUCCESS (1987) Grade: F

Time has been horrible to the mostly on the nose jokes. Felt like a rip-off of other more popular 80's comedies. Don't Watch.

Get ready for the ultimate battle of man vs. bloodthirsty machine in this terrifying Stephen King classic! For three horrifying days, the Earth passes through the tail of a mysterious comet. The skies glow an eerie green as humanity waits to see what the fallout will be. But what they imagine is nothing like the nightmare they find — the comet’s magnetic fields cause all the machines on Earth to suddenly come to life and terrorize their human creators in a horrific killing spree. Now, it’s up to a small group of people trapped in a desolate truck stop to defeat the killer machines — or be killed by them!

A cult favorite, Stephen King’s Maximum Overdrive may be remembered more for the iconic “Green Goblin” killer truck and the awesome AC/DC soundtrack than the film itself. Admit it. The film is a mess but in a so-bad-it’s-good sort of way. Goofy hijinks and silly shenanigans abound as Emilio Estevez struggles to save a small group of survivors trapped in the Dixie Boy truck stop. While the film is complete bunk, it remains a fun ride to revisit occasionally. Or, not.

At the time of this writing, Maximum Overdrive is available for streaming from Tubi and PlutoTV, and as PPV from multiple sources. It is also available on physical media in standard Blu-ray format from Lionsgate’s Vestron Video Collector’s Series.

Every two weeks, Gruesome Magazine’s Decades of Horror 1980s podcast will cover another horror film from the 1980s. The next episode’s film, chosen by Jeff, will be Nomads (1986), an oft-mentioned, oft-requested movie featuring Lesley-Anne Down, Pierce Brosnan, Mary Woronov, Adam Ant, and a wild, twisting story.This should be a good discussion!

I'd completely forgotten how unbelievably cheesy this Kung Fu movie is... but like anything from the 80s, I'm loving it.

Weekend Rewind: The Last Dragon

#Leroy! Who's the master? #Shonuff! #TheLastDragon!

I love this movie. There is no way for me to give an objective review of The Last Dragon because it’s one of my favorite films of all time. Is it a cinematic classic? Well, that depends on who you’re asking but no Oscars will ever be thrown its way and that’s fine. My love is still true and this Weekend Rewind will be an ode to a movie that in my eyes, stands the test of time.
