Yonggary
A team of scientists working on a remote dig site find the buried body of an enormous monster, perfectly preserved even after 200 million years. As soon as the beast is uncovered, however, an alien spacecraft suddenly appears above them and brings the monster back to life! The creature immediately sets about levelling the surrounding urban landscape and shrugging off the best firepower the military can throw at it. A lone scientist, working on decrypting an ancient set of hieroglyphics, may be on the verge of finding the aliens' weak point, but will it be too late?

"2001 Yonggary" is one of those films so bad that becomes funny to watch. The plot is a lame combination of "Gozilla" with many sci-fi from the 50 's in an Ed Wood style. The story and the screenplay are ridiculous with the most of the situations dumb and messy. The dialogues are stupid and the characters are incredibly dumb. The acting is awful and the special effects are laughable. The question is how can a producer invest money in this lame mediocrity? My vote is two.Title (Brazil): "Réptil" ("Reptile")
Bad acting, Bad CGI, Bad Plot, Badly thought out Aliens. The only thing saving it from a 1 rating is that it has Rocket Rangers (not what they call them, but you know what I mean when I say it). They are, of course, poorly done and poorly thought out - but I have trouble giving a really crappy rating to any movie featuring a squad of jet-pack equipped soldiers. Of course the Aliens make it impossible to give any rating higher. They can teleport and mind-control the monster, blast cities, and have been around for 200+ million years and yet they are defeated because without mind control Yonggary (the fire-breathing monster) is good and like humanity.The climactic final CGI battle occurs when the Aliens send in a tentacle-using electric Turtle (the writers must be watching too much Hentai) that Yonggary blows up by shooting a fireball into the shell while the electric turtle has its head withdrawn. Overall, just say no.
...this is the kind of movie he would make.I've seen some very bad scifi and horror movies, but this one is on a class of it's own. As bad as the acting is, one still can't help but feel a bit sorry for the actors for having to spout out such astonishingly inane dialogue, and to portray characters that couldn't possibly be more stereotypical, in a storyline that would make the average 12 year old cringe.Ed Wood's movies became classics because they were so earnest, yet so genuinely bad that they became funny. "Younggary" distinctly fails to be scary, simply because it is so utterly silly in all respects, and the storyline has more holes than swiss cheese, but it may have some minute appeal in the similar vain as Ed Wood's material, provided that the audience is in the right frame of mind. And preferably quite drunk.
This is truly a terrible movie. The dialog is beyond cheesy, the special effects might have been cutting edge in the eighties. The acting? Bad! I could go on and on... The thing that got me the most was the classic sci-fi movie blunder: "the city". Rather than try to actually pretend to destroy an existing city they just have a bunch of buildings and call it "the city". The dialog reflects this, such as "The monster is attacking the city" or "If it gets to the city we are done for" or "the aliens are directly over the city". As if there was only one city on the planet.
