The Sci-Fi Channel is a funny place. It's amazing what you miss out on--in their original programming, no less--when you watch it on TV instead of renting the DVD of some classic like Dead and Deader or Ice Spiders.

Last night, I revisited the last of three terrible movies I had on tape and lost to the great flood of '07, Habitat (Previously, on TV's LJ, she blogged about the first two: The Advanced Guard and Guyver 2: Dark Hero). In the race to win Best Worst Movie, I gotta say that the random bad-porn shots of a glistening naked chick in The Advanced Guard still lose out to the random tit-shots from about thirty different people and Alice Krige humping a bio-house in Habitat.

Habitat can claim the debut of that chick who plays Daisy Adair in Dead Like Me...and that's it. It's got that French guy who isn't the French guy from The Matrix sequels; the borg queen in all her weird-ass glory; Balthazar Getty (who made one other film that I know of, and I'm sure he'd prefer people to think he only made one film period); and a bunch of other folks who never worked again. On a scale of one to suck, this one definitely slides into suck for not having anything laughably bad about it. It just kinda squicked me out mostly. The sex scenes, such as they were (it was more naked romping and lots of heavy breathing than anything concentrating hard enough to be sex), were not exactly brilliant additions that I would otherwise have been lost without. This one goes into the memory discard pile, and gladly.

So should we rent Dead and Deader instead of watching the file I have? We should watch that soon... :)

Ooh, I dunno--do you think it's the one they aired or the one that's on the DVD?

I downloaded it right after they broadcast it, so it's probably the TV version. I just don't want to miss any zombie sex.

Yes, yes you do. Especially if it's Dean Cain zombie sex.

new scale ^_^

Ok let's see how your review changes on a scale of Suck to Crow 4?

What little I allow myself to remember of The Crow: Wicked Prayer calls to mind that it was more powerfully awful than this one. This one was vaguely uncomfortable; that one was painful.

We can get it, I'm sure, some how.

Be happy, you didn't miss much. Eight-Legged Freaks was a lot better!
