S.S. Doomtrooper

A film like this could have been filmed by Ed Wood if he had at least a dose of the talent and charisma that Tim Burton gave him, and if he had the appropriate support from the studio and the resulting budget. It's stupid, with ridiculous dialogues and scenes that don't work, terrible special effects, and crazy characters, but it's stupid in an entertaining way, so it can be a good choice for fans of campy productions. For a normal film fan, it is despair personified. In the age of video production, which has made filmmaking so affordable that today several enthusiasts can make their own film for pocket money and upload it online, I dare not estimate where the true bottom of filmmaking is, so I won't throw S.S. Doomtrooper into the rankings of the worst films in history. Overall impression: 5%. (05/05/2011)
