Tonight's Stinker: The Shape of Things to Come (1979)

Tonight's Stinker The Shape of Things to Come (1979) https://youtu.be/ORN5aT9Lxho?si=aLPZ6k6-OzLIN1UP Pretty forgettable, as I've already forgotten most of it.... So there's an opening crawl about how Earth was abandoned after WW3, & the universe is dependent on an anti-radiation drug that's only found one place in the universe.... In a capital city on the moon, traffic controllers are watching a cargo ship that's ignoring attempts to contact while it's set on a crash course.... Meanwhile, a scientist & a politician are bickering over the need for a defense ship.... Everyone is safely evacuated from the dome as the cargo ship crashes into it.... The dome is immediately rebuilt by planes spraying chemtrails, while inspectors find a robot in the wreckage of the ship.... They decide to rebuild the robot & reprogram it to be friendly.... Then Jack Palance calls up & demands surrender of the universe, so the scientist, his son & his girlfriend decide to steal the defense ship & head for the planet he's on.... This is the movie I thought I was going to watch when I sat through that porno a few months ago, and somehow, less memorable.... Gets pretty slow & plodding.... Tries to insert "HG Wells" in the title, & even swipes the name JOHN CABAL, even though it has no relation to the Wells novel..... Feels like it was supposed to be a TV movie or an unsold pilot.....

Tonight's (other) Stinker: Black Angels (1970)

Tonight's (other) Stinker Black Angels (1970) https://youtu.be/57uSnAVOQZk?si=dvAiEcRlPW4x5W5p Plot? What plot? Oh yeah, so..... A young black biker plans to become leader of his gang by killing the leader of a white gang, but after a ridiculously long chase, he's killed in a crash.... He takes the boy's "colors" back to the black gang & tries to smooth things out & goes back to his own gang..... Meanwhile, a stranger shows up posing as a stereotypical southern racist who wants to join the gang... One gang member is suspicious of everything about the guy, while the leader thinks he's okay.... At that same time, a local cop visits each gang & convinces them that the other is about to move in on their territory..... Amusingly, this movie uses pretty much every cliché I've ever heard of, with lots of long drawn out scenes of rides & bad music.... Only exception, there's a central figure who's not really a protagonist... None of the characters have any redeeming qualities.....

Tonight's Stinker: Murder by Television (1935)

Tonight's Stinker Murder by Television (1935) https://youtu.be/N5RoAznF9cI?si=F_5V2Wjoo-9cCgem Back when there were only a few TV stations in the world, a scientist invents a way to broadcast around the globe without the need for repeaters & before the invention of satellites.... Of course, businesses & governments everywhere want to get their paws on this new doo-dad, but the scientist wants to keep it.... Then, during a live, worldwide demonstration, he dies, and the movie turns into a head scratching who-done-it... About an hour long, with choppy editing, and a pair of ethnic house servants who live up to antiquated stereotypes... Been meaning to watch this for years, & now it's over with... Gonna try & make it a twofer tonight!
