Wow. I'm watching Category 7: The End of the World on tv right now and it's the biggest schlockfest I've seen in a long, long time. It's worse than 10.5, people!

It's so cheesy, it's like someone melted a Velveeta factory into a fondue pot and garnished it with cans of EZ-Cheez.

Although, I must admit that I admire the writers for not even bothering to give us any reason to care about the characters. And giving us visual proof that Ma Nature hates mimes, soccer hooligans and creepy clowns, in that order.

Poison. Frogs. Get loose at a political function and wallow around on the food. I'm not making this us; there was a clear shot of a frog, on its back, wiggling in froggy glee all over a plate of paté.

Shannen Doherty! Randy Quaid! Swoosie Kurtz! It's a madhouse of B/C-list actors desperate for a paycheck! Batten down the hatches!!!

It's the plagues Moses called down on the Egyptians and this time, God hates potheads! Potheads and jocks! And maybe Tom Skerrit, I'm not sure yet!

But in its embracing of the cheese, it manages to pass through Bad Movie straight into Delightful Schlockfest. :-)

kinda like when you finally give up on charlies angels full throttle and when you finally do see that it will never get any better the longer you watch it you can enjoy the movie as a full fleged comedy?

Hey, not everything can go direct to video. I mean, what would the networks run then? :)

I never said that they were good TV; I just implied that they're better than movie-of-the-week crap like this. :-p
