Eli’s Lesson (1992)

There’s a good moral to this story, but the direction’s so hamfisted that the entire film ends up feeling like an extra-corny episode of Are You Afraid of the Dark? without any of the creepy imagery or gallows humour. I guess Jack Palance was strapped for cash when he decided to thrown in with this lot.

Bad Boy AKA Dawg (2002) – B

O.K. Garage AKA All Revved Up (1998)

This movie’s pretty bland – the characters are quirky enough, but the pacing is so glacial and the plot so nebulous that it ends up drawing viewer disinterest after awhile. Truth be told, the only real laughs this comedy’ll draw out of you will come after you compare the video cover

with the actual tone of the movie itself.

B-

Fatal Past (1993)

I think this is the most perfectly mediocre movie I have ever watched in my life. Everything about it – the uninspired plot, cypher-like characters, mundane pace, average direction – is just so … so … utterly uncaptivating without being the least bit infuriating. I almost commend the director for attaining such a nirvana of adequacy.
