A veteran mercenary is double-crossed and finds himself blacklisted into becoming a general in hell’s army.
This is a very high low-budget movie. It’s over-the-top, corny but only almost-fun. Some of the effects are amazing, but some are so damned bad I can’t imagine how they thought this could be anything more than a middling success. From a writing perspective, it’s not bad moment-to-moment, but the overall plot is a bit stupid.
This has nothing going for it but the incredible acting of a clown.

A boy that’s beaten up a lot decides that murder is both the best revenge and career. Wait, it’s about the man though. Well there’s narration so don’t worry he’s never in any danger.
Kinda funny and kinda interesting sometimes, but god damn does it drag on; it could have been done much better, and done better quite easily too.

- Inspired by Accident Man (comic strip)

See also The Mechanic (1972 / 2011) for something more serious.

An enforcer for the survivors of a ruined world learns that he lives in a utopia that stagnates population.
Although it got slow later on, it’s quite nice even with its age.

Two worlds are connected and one of the worlds has a lot of monsters who somehow live without anything to eat and also are persistent assholes.
The actual movie starts two thirds in, and there are so many terrible writing decisions; oh god it’s so bad.

A machine goes back in time to save it’s reprogrammer from another machine that was created thanks to another instance of that first machine having been sent back in time to kill that reprogrammer’s mother which created the timeline that made the machines in the first place. Or something.
A great movie, although I’m not sure if it could be watched on it’s own. Thankfully The Terminator – (1984 movie) is a must-watch.

A man and his girlfriend take a vacation into someone else’s cabin.
Beyond spectacular. If you don’t like horror you will still love this movie.

A zombie apocalypse fells Japan and it’s up to an almost-NEET everyman to mostly save a couple of people.
A straightforward and largely unsurprising movie; fine for wasting some time.
