I read that this movie is the "Citizen Kane" of bad movies, and I watched the trailer on Youtube; I am so glad Nostalgia Critic is doing this as a Special Request....cause it looks hi-de-ous!! !! !! !!

Check this out:

Oh, and worth noting: it was not originally supposed to be a comedy; that's what Tommy Wiseau is billing it as now; originally it was meant to be a drama; but it's considered so laughably bad, that he's making money claiming it's a comedy. Pisses off a lot of the actors in the process.

No, but again...the way he's speaking isn't intentionally supposed to be awful; that's what's incredibly funny and sad about it.

He didn't expect any of it to turn out so horribly wrong, and it did.

Aah, the spirit of Ed D. Wood, Jr yet lives...

Have you seen Santa Claus Conquers the Martians? Features a very young Pia Zadora - her acting was better as a child...

I watched The Room, having heard great things about how terrible it was. And it really was pretty terrible, but I've seen more entertaining bad movies. I'd go back and watch something else instead if I could.

My grandparents gave me that movie on VHS as a gift when I was a child. I watched it at their house that day and I couldn't believe how bad it was. Martians with green face paint carrying literally toy plastic guns they obviously bought at a toy store. It was tediously bad. I left it in their VCR.

i've only seen bits of this, but it's priceless in its baffling sincerity.

Justed watched his lastest video. The Next Top 11 NC Fuckups.
11. The real reason he did not do an Old vs New of War of the Worlds. He just found them underwhelming.
10. Mistaking the Georgian era dress for a Victorian era dress in the Superman IV review. (Though this mistake was done by Linkara)
9. Not realizing the reason why Mr. Freeze did not cure his wife in Batman & Robin.
8. Mispronoucing people's names all of the time. (He does defend this a bit)
7. Calling Chernabog "The Devil". (He still feels that despite the name he still considers the character to be The Devil)
6. Mistaking the true cause of the Full House mother's death.
5. Dolphins can "punch" in real life.
4. Quest for Camelot did explain many things he missed.
3. Mistaking Jim Cummings for Christopher Lloyd and Jeremy Irons in the Top 11 Villain Songs.
2. Saying 9+9+9=21.
1. The Autism Joke in "Ernest Saves Christmas" review.
