Very best movie i ever watch

Pretty Good

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

I would definitely have to say this is the worst movie ever.The kind of bad that you just have to see to believe. A Russian scientist gets too close to an atomic bomb test and becomes a "beast". He spends the majority of the hour long movie stumbling around the desert. Tight camera shots help us believe he is going to different places and the cops are really climbing a mountain. The kids are hilarious.They get chased around by this guy and manage to stay calm and basically whisper their lines.Them calmly yelling for their mom is brilliant. Bad story. Terrible acting. Even worse production. This movie has it all.

I would think a movie, no matter how bad, has to get a commercial release in order to qualify for IMDb listing. Hard to believe this mess would be picked up, even at the pre-school level. But I guess it was. Anyway, for me what's notable is poor Tor Johnson. His "beast" is more like a lonely old man wandering dementedly through wastelands because nobody will take him in. He's having a heckuva time dragging that 300 lbs. over the dried-out terrain. I hope they paid him well, but I doubt it. Too bad filmmaker Francis never heard the words "storyline" or "timeline". Judging from what's on screen, I'm betting he spent his time catching bad French art movies. Then again, the narration, as other reviewers detail, sounds like a philosophy class flunk out. How fitting. The whole thing bears the stamp of runaway self indulgence. No need to go on. The movie's neither good-bad nor fun. Mostly it's just painful. Poor Tor, he deserved better.

So, a while back I wrote my 100th IMDb review, and I chose to focus it on my favorite film of all time. Park Chan-Wook's magnificent South Korean thriller "Oldboy." Having just noticed that I was about to write my 200th review on IMDb, I decided to shake up the formula a little bit. Do the opposite, I suppose you could say. I chose to focus my 200th review on the worst film I've ever seen.It wasn't an easy choice. I've seen many poor films over my 25 years of life. But one stands out. One reigns supreme as the king of the bad films. One film that is so poor. So boring. So poorly made, that not even a treatment by the brilliant "Mystery Science Theater 3000" could make it watchable. One film that actually physically affected my body in a negative way, because it was intensely poor, I started to have a panic attack just trying to force myself to sit through it, and I had to take an Adavan pill to calm myself down. I'm not joking. I'm sure that sounds like some sort of exaggeration made as a joke, but I had a panic attack watching this and I had to take a pill to calm myself down. Yeah... it's that bad.That film: The Coleman Francis picture "The Beast of Yucca Flats." A film that, in my opinion, is the single worst movie of all time.Where do I even begin?This poorly made, poorly directed, poorly acted, poorly scored, poorly edited, poorly conceived piece of filth has almost no story to summarize. It's sort of about a defected Soviet scientist (Tor Johnson) who is mutated by a random nuclear bomb test. (And by "mutated" I mean his shirt has a few rips on it) But the film is so painfully haphazard that you can't help but lose focus. I wish I could give a more in-depth story analysis than that one sentence, since I usually like to write a paragraph summary in my reviews. But I can't. There's no story to speak of. And what story there is, is riddled with holes, continuity errors and bizarre betrayals of it's own tone and logic.The acting is unbelievably bad. Tor is painful to watch as he sort of waddles around pretending to be some fierce mutant killer. Two child actors (Ronald and Alan Francis) are unwatchably dreadful. Douglas Mellor as their father is flat as a pancake. Director Coleman Francis' wife Barabara is just dreadful as the boy's mother. Even Coleman himself as the film's narrator is impossible to listen to. His voice (he's doing some sort of pseudo Orson Welles schtick) is grating, and his narration is completely nonsensical. I have never seen worse acting than this in my life.The script by Francis is bizarrely bad. Not only is it internally shaky and bizarrely reliant on lazy coincidences and contrived situations, but it makes no sense. Things happen just for the sake of happening. The dialog is robotic and poor. And as mentioned above, an atrocious narration is forced in to try and make sense of it all, only for it to backfire and make the film even more confusing. (Repeated questions about how the flag got on the moon? Bizarre references to concepts that have no application to the story? It hurts your brain trying to decrypt what the narration is even trying to say.) And some really sickening schlock-tastic and exploitive moments make it all the more offensively bad, including an upsetting opening scene in which a woman is killed, and it is implied that her corpse may be sexually assaulted. Real classy, Coleman... real classy. (And the best part is, there's actually no time for this to have happened during the narrative, so it's literally unrelated to the film- the titular "Beast" had no time to kill this woman during the movie, so it couldn't have been him doing it. Coleman Francis literally added murder and sexual assault to his film for no reason whatsoever.)The production is dreadful. The direction is boring and makes no sense whatsoever. The pacing is some of the slowest I've ever encountered. The cinematography is amateur and bland. And the shot composition is dreadful. Especially as characters almost never face the camera, because Coleman didn't have any way to record audio, and had the actors face away from the camera so he could add audio during post production without having to worry about lip-sync. If you can't even have your actors face the camera, you shouldn't be making a movie!There is not a single redeeming quality in this worthless, draining, disgustingly poor piece of crud. I think that every film deserves a chance, and every film should be available for people to see, as in my opinion, every film has value. Except this film. This film should not be seen. If I had the power, I would eradicate this film from existence. It has no value, merit or reason. It has nothing to offer to anyone in any capacity, beyond frustration that something this impure was made and distributed.This is the worst film ever made. Plainly. Simply. Purely. Painfully. The worst film of all time. I have never experienced a more unpleasant, unclean, soulless waste of 60 minutes in my life.1 out of 10. Don't watch this. Please.(Edit: This was written and submitted as my 200th review, but for some reason was approved before the 199th review I submitted that same day.)

I did not know a 54 minute movie could be so long. Seriously, it felt like twice the specified length, probably because almost NOTHING happens. Sure, people do stuff, mostly mundane, boring stuff, and at a slow pace at that; there is a car "chase" scene that looks like someone out for a Sunday drive, there is a mountain climbing scene which is basically just two guys walking up a hill and there i an airplane chase scene which is more or less just a guy leaning out the window with a prop rifle. Even the monster just stumbles about slowly and strangles people, who don't even try to resist, in a leisurely fashion. All of this pretty much without dialog, just a narrator spouting lines that sound like they come straight from some kind of fan fiction. When the narrator is quite, the music is overly dramatic, in contrast to the lack of drama on the screen. A monster movie should not be this boring.
