Tonight's Stinker Beacon Point (2016)

Tonight's Stinker Beacon Point (2016) https://youtu.be/WVVTOb1Z3aw?si=z_tpsdRRh8P4kBWG An Appalachian trail guide starts a fight with his boss over his criminal record, killing him in the process... As he's trying to sneak out, the hikers he was supposed to lead show up... He tries to talk his way out of it, but fails..... Early in the hike, they run into some other hikers who have found a dead body... Knowing the authorities will soon be all over the place, the guide decides to lead the group off trail, and grows increasingly cross every time someone asks where he's leading them... About 35 minutes in, the guide & one of the hikers start having dreams about being abducted by aliens, & another gets sick.... Talky & fairly slow paced, many questions go unanswered aside from hints at an old indian legend.....

Tonight's Stinker Solar Crisis (1990) https://youtu.be/6bHrkPCRBU4?si=00NqcLkWPByXTQwg Decent little sci-fi action, with an a list b-movie cast...

Tonight's stinker Empire of Ash (1988)

Tonight's Stinker Empire of Ash (1988) AKA Empire of Ash II (1989) https://youtu.be/3PYrC-Yr_vY?si=zF1pqvPO0H7tMC2f Really low budget Mad Max ripoff, slow paced with no real plot... Punk rockers in a big truck drive around shooting everyone they see, while a worldly preacher cheers them on... They kill an old man, & kidnap his grand daughter... After a while, her sister shows up, meets a nomad who promptly gets kidnapped by mutants, and she decides to go rescue him, because he knows where the punk rockers took her sister.... Some action scenes, with stunts & pyrotechnics that aint so bad considering the budget...

Tonight's Stinker Battle In Outer Space (1959)

Tonight's Stinker Battle In Outer Space (1959) https://youtu.be/0tDnW5Xhg44?si=NqXQ8FYMk4F7j5XA Aliens attack a space station & several earth cities.... A science alliance in Tokyo develops a new kind of laser gun, & heads for the moon.... For some reason, all of this takes way longer than I'm describing..... The movie feels like it's over after about an hour & ten minutes, but then they tack on another twenty minutes for a segment about Earth uniting & preparing for another alien attack, then a final battle.....

Tonight's Stinker: The Day the World Ended 1955

Tonight's Stinker The Day the World Ended 1955 https://youtu.be/qU2ipDetUbI?si=MeMWQqguv4RTwYer So, there's a nuclear war, and five people, an old prospector, a young geologist & his contaminated friend, a stripper & her no good boyfriend, come across a house where a retired Navy captain & his daughter are holed up... The captain & the geologist are talking science, while the stripper's boyfriend has nothing nice to say about everyone else.... Meanwhile, the contaminated survivor develops a taste for raw meat, & later reveals there's a bigger mutant out there.... Not "that" bad, considering I'd already seen this gosh awful remake by Larry Buchannan....
