Movie Reviews of The Food of the Gods
Movie Review: Hard to Choose a Rating for This
Summary: 1 Stars
It's really hard to choose a rating for this film. On the one hand, it truly is one of the worst movies I've ever seen, and easily one of the worst movies ever made. On the other hand, it's so unbelievably bad that its sheer awfulness becomes entertaining in its own right. Basically it's so bad that it's unintentionally hilarious. I don't want to give such an abysmal movie 4 stars, yet that's about what it's worth in entertainment value. It's one of my favorite bad movies of all time. Truly it has to be seen to be believed.
If you're looking for a really good movie, this is not it. If you enjoy laughing at bad movies (especially with the help of friends and/or loved ones), you really can't go wrong with this one.
Movie Review: H.G. Wells would cry bitter tears
Summary: 1 Stars
In H.G. Wells classic novel of the same title, the gigantism of the human beings who were given the "food of the gods" caused them to look at their world in new and intriguing ways. The book was largely a philosophical tome in which the size of living creatures was really just a metaphor for people who would maintain the staus quo of the "old world" and the giants who would fight for more a more rational world. It had elements of a traditional sci fi story but it was much more than that.
But the movie sucked. Big time! And Mary Joseph Gortner should have stayed in the Bible Belt revival biz.
