Absolutely horrible movie, yet...


Its strangely watchable. Maybe its because I've grown to love horrible movies like Uwe Boll's films, but when I just watched it on FX I was entertained. I haven't seen the movie for at least ten years, and there will probably be another ten years before I watch it again, if ever.

Touche. But Uwe Boll is truly horrible...

True, but I give you credit for being able to watch and finish Uwe Boll films. The only one I mildly enjoyed was Postal, and that was because it was actually pretty damn funny.

I had to push myself to finish House of the Dead, and I always get terribly bored trying to watch Bloodrayne (I found Bloodrayne 2 to be superior, but thats like comparing different varieties of manure). I actually enjoy Postal and Dungeon Siege on some level.

I don't watch his films. I seen his 2 Bloodrayne's and it's all I need for me to see to know he's god-awful.

I AGREE I WONT WATCH IT AGAIN

Yeah I know what you mean. My friends make fun of me because I know almost all the cheesy lines in the film. As for UWE Boll, in HOTD I just fast forwarded to the Bullet time shotgun scene. I tried to watch Bloodrayne, but turned off after seeing Michele Rodriguez try to pull off a horrible French/British(?) accent.

I watched this at around the time I had gotten over Power Rangers. Needless to say, I enjoyed it.

Mortal Kombat: Annihilation is one of those "so-bad-it's-good" movies for me. Like Batman & Robin or Plan 9 from Outer Space, it is god-awful, but highly, higly watchable for all the unintentional laughs.

I got it for free when I bought the first film, and I have to say, whenever I watch Mortal Kombat, I almost always watch this film right after, just because of the bad entertainment factor. Heck, sometimes I even watch it on its own if I need a laugh.

Although I will say that I think MK:A is a better film than anything Uwe Boll could ever pull off. Even his "better" films (Postal) still suck a lot.
