Why was that foot there?

[@maplebob23]

I’m still working on my film, Cocaine Shark and Cocaine Bear at Betty Ford’s: A Love Story. Some people at the studio are telling me the title is too long and gives away the whole story, but I’m standing firm, mostly because the title is the movie! I don’t get why they don’t get it!

[@xRandomCityx]

Trash

[@Thor-Orion]

Fuck those studio folks, go independent. I think you’ve got a winner!

[@Nash1t0]

So we go from "why did the goblin turned on the stove?" To "why was that foot there?" This is Possum character development.

[@TorbjornTheGGViking]

I find it sad that Possum left his door open and nobody came, but his house has been broken into forcefully by Bigfoot, Al E. N. Prick, the Ant guy, a historically accurate velociraptor, a ghost, three kids dressed as an irish ghost, a zombie, and the Demon.

[@markiangooley]

You leave the door open, nobody shows up, lock everything up and various things make serious efforts to break in…

[@ThomasStevensontutor]

Here's a fun little detail: The microscope used to analyse pathogens is a petrographic microscope, i.e. one a geologist would use to look at rock samples. It wouldn't have enough magnifying power to let you see something as small as a living cell, let alone a virus. I assume the filmmakers are using a broken one too, because petrographic microscopes tend to be crazy expensive and found in universities. Another great review, as always! My favourite part was all the names you came up with for Knuckles/Elmo/whatever. :P

[@Thor-Orion]

Okay, nerd. (I’m just messing with you, I don’t know how else to indicate that without these parentheses and I didn’t want you to think I was actually making fun of you for knowing that)

You forgot to mention that the mechanic's Cygnus business patch on his shirt is actually just a paper sticker. I guess they couldn't be bothered to have a real patch made.

[@NathanTarantlawriter]

Great work Possum! I discovered the Palonia brothers by accident years ago and marveled at their ability to produce films and somehow make money on them regardless of quality. Their saving grace seems to have been helping others get into filmmaking. I can respect that, regardless of the quality of the movies they make. At least they (and now the remaining brother) did what they liked and seem to have made a kind of living doing it, which is ok by me. I avoid their movies, as a rule, because I just can't take the level of bad. But I do wish others would approach filmmaking with as robust an attitude as this and stop depending on creating stuff that feels creatively empty even if it cost millions to produce. I don't know if I'm explaining myself right, but as bad as the movies are, I think they did a great service and the surviving brother continues doing what he wants. I can dig that. Looking forward to the next piece of garbage!

[@proselytefever]

"Didn't need thousands of mail in votes to do it" lmaoooo I love this channel.

[@ZER0O9]

These scientists might be smart enough to figure out why the goblin turned the stove on.

[@cacomeatballmarinara2014]

Something that bothers me to no extent is that they couldn’t even be bothered to turn off the lights or film at night, like the bare minimum to try to indicate to the audience that this isn’t a community college and somewhere at the bottom of the ocean where it’s devoid of sunlight. Like it wouldn’t make it good, but it be at least something

I want to see Mark team up with Neil Breen, get an actual decent budget and see what cinematic masterpiece they shit out because I feel l It would be terrifying

[@markiangooley]

The problem is that such auteurs simply can’t collaborate. It was probably quite an effort for Mark to collaborate even with his identical twin!

[@TheWarmotor]

I actually prefer the low hanging fruit videos, my dude. Keep it up, we love you :) Also, if you look at the baseplate on the mag on that rifle, it looks to be a 9mm - which would make it a Ruger PC9, not a 10-22. A pistol-caliber carbine in 9mm would actually be a plausible weapon for a coporate security to carry. A mini-14 with tactical furniture would make more sense (or even an AR15, they're everywhere... in fact I live in Commiefornia and I own 3 of them) but if they're in some kind of enclosed facility maybe they're worried about over penetration from a rifle caliber like 5.56mm/.223? Or maybe those are just the airsoft guns Palonia had access to? AND OMG that little M3 grease gun toy at the end with the pic rail on top was ADORABLE.

[@nickdirienzo2849]

I gotta say, a movie with the Red Skull, Hellboy, Kool-Aid, Bob the Tomato, Stimpy, Darth Maul, Charmander, The Orange Blob, The Crimson Djinn, AND Sharks sounds better then anything Disney has made in 7 years ... Of course, it looks like the "Goblin's" junk after he cooked himself on the stove.

[@supereldinho]

Here's a really depressing thought: As bad as this movie is, even with its shoestring budget it still has better shark CGI than Jaws 3D which had an 18 million dollar budget yet they couldn't even ANIMATE the shark to move and just had a still image on the shark float to the side.

[@theblackswordsman5039]

That is depressing

[@Dreadjaws]

To be fair, this movie wouldn't have been possible the year Jaws 3D came out.

[@supme7558]

I'd like to see you take the Tech. They had back then and do better. I doubt you could.

[@supereldinho]

This has nothing to do with technology. They could've simply used stop-motion or practical effects as a substitute for CGI. John Carpenter's The Thing came out 1 year before Jaws 3D. To this day it's still lauded for having some of the best practical effects in movie history, achieved with just a 15 million dollar budget. Or let's go 1 step further: the first Terminator movie came out 1 year after Jaws 3D and its budget was just 6.4 million, just 1/3 of what Jaws 3D had. Even with that budget, the stop-motion used for the Terminator near the end is leagues above the piss-poor JPEG they used in Jaws 3D. Poor technology is no excuse for genuine incompetence.

[@Thor-Orion]

@@supereldinhoabsolutely agreed, all the Jaws movies after the first one were cash grabs and their budgets seemed like some sort of money laundering scheme considering the product on screen.

[@jasonscarborough94]

I can't figure out why they didn't just buy a cheap Airsoft AK or, buy some of those 20 dollar vaguely M16 looking toy blaster you can get at any Walmart. The last third of the movie with the "Survivalists" clearly shows they were fine with using obvious toy guns.
