Best of the Worst: Twister's Revenge

Mike, Jay, and Richard Evans "Spotlight" a terrible old movie called "Twister's Revenge" by Wisconsin filmmaker Bill Romaine.

[@rustylasagna]

Literally thought this was going to be a sequel to the movie Twister.

[@John-vn9js]

I actually live in Gleason, someone found the metal skeleton of the giant spider prop and put it in a weed choked lawn next to the bank, they thought that would bring in tourist... sat there for like 2 years then someone either stole it or was so ashamed they quietly moved it back to whatever dump they dragged it out of. Also Bill Rebane's grandson gave me a copy of this to borrow back in the 90's and immediately moved away, so now I just have it I guess.

Because mike asked: Monster truck rallies at the time of Twister's Revenge were largely a spectator sport. At the highest level there was Bigfoot, USA-1, Grave Digger, and maybe a dozen others competing for prize money to packed stadiums and arenas in televised events. For the most part it was more of an exhibition type of thing at rodeos and fairs, often for prize money but it was a side job or hobby for most of the competitors. Being successful at any level was as much about keeping your truck from catastrophically breaking as it was driving skill. Ostensibly with movie logic, an AI could pilot the truck at peak performance without taking it beyond it's mechanical limits. It's still really stupid though and makes no sense cuz theres a bajillion better things to do with such an sophisticated AI. Around 86, Bigfoot, the most dominant and elite monster truck in the nation was comprised of around a 500,000 in parts with most of it's primary opponents ranging about the same. Based on it's an appearance and the level it's competing at, Twister would be probably be worth the better part of 200k without any "computer parts" Also yes you can legally own a tank that can move. Jump through enough ATF hoops and you can legally own a tank with a working turret as well. You just can't own munitions for it (I believe) unless they are solid cast slugs rather than any actual payload ever used by a military or your own homemade explosives. You're welcome for the wall of text you won't read you hack fraud.

[@FleshNFaith]

Just from my childhood memory, Grave Digger was the coolest, but there was aso Snakebite and Samson. Aside from the ED209 transformer that they had. hack fraud

[@arieheath7773]

You can definitely own live explosive tank shells. However each individual round is considered a destructive device and you have to do the paperwork and the tax for each one.

[@DirtyFrigginHarry]

@@arieheath7773 Are there even any on the civilian market or would projectiles have to be fabricated?

[@arieheath7773]

JazzYolo Depends on the actual caliber. I think one of the most common is 37mm. But I’ve seen some people who have 75mm rounds for Sherman’s. Most people don’t shoot them though, since they can just shoot solid projectiles and reload the cases.

[@DirtyFrigginHarry]

I live near the collings foundation museum. They have several running tanks with working guns. Maybe I'll hit em up about what they use for their reenactments

@@karina4747 well there were no copyright laws in those days and no official film companies.

I remember many times we would get a tape from a different rental and it would turn out it's the same movie we just watched, only them name on the tape was something different. :) Crazy times...

28:20 Tanks are actually perfectly legal to own, you just need a permit, and to have all weapons on the tank (like the main cannon) disabled. There's even websites that sell them, like MortarInvestments. The main reason it's really rare for civilians to own tanks is just because they are expensive, require an enormous amount of maintenance to keep running, and are often difficult to drive without an actual crew. Also many tanks can't be legally driven on streets due to the damage they cause to the road, and so you also need specialized rubber treads to make them road-safe.

Hey! As a fellow Wisconsinite I must protest! We have great cities such as Weyauwge, Oconomowoc, Manitowoc, Kewaskum, Waukesha, Schawano, Kaukauna, Menomonie, Kewaunee, Mukwonago, and other such cities that almost nobody outside of the region can pronounce. Thanks Native Americans!

[@andrewgwilliam4831]

Do they all have monorails? 🤔

[@matthewbowen5841]

To be fair, eastern PA and west central NJ rival WI for Native American names that probably mean somethin profound, but sound silly.

[@brittany2369]

Don’t forget antigo

26:41 You can tell it's edited by Mike when there's random close ups on Rich for no reason

[@soakingbook]

I was taking a shit on some railroad ties when I got the notification for this video!

[@contravariant_functor]

I love it when they do accents. They're actually really spot on

[@lucasaccardo360]

Hi, in case some of you reads this, i'd like to recommend 4 of my favorites "B" movies ever: Cannibal Apocalypse (1980) The Last Hunter (1980) Combat Shock (1986) and the glorious holy grail of intentionally "bad" movies Street Trash (1987) all VietNam War related in case you wanna tie them in a topic - Cheers from a new fan from Buenos Aires.

He's from Buenos Aires and he says 'Watch 'em All!'

Mike don't lie to us, you'll never quit drinking.

[@Mihollo21]

Pabst Blue Ribbon is not only older than Wisconsin, it's older than time itself.

[@Corbomite_Meatballs]

Remember, you don't buy beer, you only lease it.

[@mrs_plinkett]

the fact that these three men were actually born in Illinois makes this whole thing even funnier 💀💀💀

[@davidthieroff9452]

I can't stop laughing at the push-in to the guy's wonky teeth.

[@carltonbanks9876]

I came expecting tornados

[@DonYurik]

"Lettuce make another take" Goddamn, Mike. That comeback was so fast. You truly are a national treasure

[@noone3216]

And that's just the tip of the iceberg...

[@brucerobenalt8048]

Jay’s mirthless laugh always makes me happy.

[@cameronroy2129]

You just blew up my car with an rocket launcher, walks away This must be Texas I'm not taking Wisconsin as an answer anymore

[@houston-coley]

Twister's Revenge is one of the few movies that would actually be *improved* if it was written by artificial intelligence.

[@TheOnlyCarupa]

Since you are curious, yes you can own a fully functional tank. Licenses are required it the cannon is fully functional but anyone can own a disarmed tank in the US. They are just expensive.

[@jipeon]

I'm in a dark room, with a black light, the movie starts to play, and I start to see things I recognize.

[@rodolphe2755]

F... you James

[@maxter328]

3:01 you hit the whopper-mark button.

[@TheBuckteeth100]

My theory is that this movie is just a tax scam. So he can try to write off the purchase of a monster truck and a tank

[@RadicalValkyrie]

Love Jay's T-shirt. I almost spat my drink out when you cut to the "werewolf guy".

[@angel-us7hv]

i feel like watching this channel i have learned more about wisconsin than i will ever need to know thanks i guess

[@Griffin1171-love-you-all]

I'm guessing Bill Paxton isn't in this movie.

[@ballisticmonkey999]

ITS THE EXTREME!

[@theactualTVB]

Is Twistler’s Revenge replacing Bill Paxton?

[@Nuberax]

BEST set-up for a gag in this. I checked the description to see the filmmaker's name, and NOT A FULL SECOND LATER they come in with the punchline. Masterful.

[@robertlo9]

They already made a movie about an AI racecar. It's called The Love Bug (1969).

[@OurBenefactors]

Was Herbie really AI-controlled? I thought it was possessed by a ghost, or something. It's been a long, LONG time since I saw those movies.

[@Deadono]

Jays laughter cures cancer.

[@xp8969]

It's good thing with how much cancer Rich's causes
