519,164 | 8,239,592 | 129,358 | 1 | A total stinker | Sasquatch spent most of the 90s toiling away in such horrendously lame'n'tame children's movie bilge as " Little Bigfoot , " " Bigfoot : The Unforgettable Encounter , " and " Big and Hairy , " which makes this regional redneck horror / action hybrid a definite anomaly , but still nothing to get all excited about . In t... |

518,466 | 8,239,592 | 80,346 | 1 | Brain-numbingly atrocious no-budget zombie abomination | I must admit that I have this strange grudging respect for the ridiculously prolific and chronically ham-fisted schlock movie master Fred Olen Ray . Sure , a majority of Fred's flicks are total crap , but I still admire the tireless , albeit hopeless Mr . Ray for trying again and again and again to produce a halfway de... |
518,345 | 8,239,592 | 89,745 | 1 | The world ends with a whimper instead of a bang in this cruddy post-nuke sci-fi clinker | After her striking performance as Matt Dillon's unrepentant junkie nympho wife in the outstanding " Drugstore Cowboy " Kelly Lynch seemed to have one hell of a career ahead of her .

518,721 | 8,239,592 | 429,573 | 2 | Crude , unsubtle and terribly overwrought | I must confess that I had pretty high hopes for this horror movie considering its novel 19th century period setting , the claim that the story has some basis in documented historical fact , and a high pedigree cast which includes Donald Sutherland and Sissy Spacek . The plot about a wealthy family whose heretofore peac... |
