Flash Gordon Savior of the Universe on DVD
“Flash Gordon Savior of the Universe” Plot:
When the totalitarian planet of Mongo decides on a whim to obliterate Earth, it’s up to the lunk-headed quarterback Flash Gordon and his oddball companions to make the universe safe for democracy. Based on the classic (and infinitely more reputable) comic strip and its ’30s screen serialization, this cotton-candy-colored trash classic deserves immortality for Queen’s unforgettably pulsating soundtrack alone. The legendary Max von Sydow appears to be having a blast as the evil Ming the Merciless, while Ornella Muti, as his daughter, is the living embodiment of what attracts adolescent boys to comics in the first place. (She makes Barbarella look mundane.) One of the most shamelessly entertaining movies ever made, this is a knowingly absurd sensory freak-out that’ll have the viewer blissfully checking the sky afterward for signs of Hawkmen.
Sam J. Jones, Melody Anderson, Max von Sydow.

What’s the WORST movie remake?
The Italian Job
Godzilla
There are some that are clearly terrible low-budget, awful remakes, but the big budget horrible remakes are much more interesting to consider. Of those, I would go with “Godzilla”.
too many to choose
Psycho
Godzilla because Matthew Broderick is NOT an action star so he should stay out of action movies….. and Godzilla looked like Jay Leno
The Fog. The original was so much better.
It would have to be ARTHUR.
That guy sucked.
Dudley Moore must be rolling around in his grave.
Land of the Lost
I have to pick just one?
The DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL
The Stepford Wives with Nicole Kidman and Matthew Broderick
DARK SHADOWS ugh
red dawn
Footloose
King Kong
The Blob…..I guess my age is showing but I loved Steve McQueen in the original
Willy Wonka
the wicker man with nic cage
Godzilla
Wicker man
“Bewitched”. Love Nora Ephron, miss her dearly, but WTF?????
the day the earth stood still
Yojimbo/The Warrior and the Sorceress. The American remake pretty much made it into a softcore porno.
Willy Wonka. There was no reason to even try to remake this movie. Gene Wilder made that role his own.
Rollerball (1975, James Caan) was a classic. The 2002 remake… truly terrible!
Conan
Willy Wonka
King Kong
Land of The Lost – that was simply horrible !
Tim Burton’s Planet of the Apes. I had high hopes for that film, but it was a huge disappointment. I think Tim was just in it for the paycheck.
Arthur
Dinner for Schmucks which completely reuined and distroyed a hysterical film -The Dinner Game.
And now nobody will go see the original film because they think poorly of the remake
arthur
Conan
The Ladykillers (2004)
Remaking the classic “The Day The Earth Stood Still” was criminal. I think the constant remakes shows the lack of imagination in Hollywood these days.
not yet released, but the new robocop seems like a real pile of shit, Robocop doesn’t even look like a cyborg
Flash Gordon Savior of the Universe
halloween
Conan the Barbarian
Arthur

Most of them, too many to count. will wonka
Will Wonka and the Chocolate Factory
Red Dawn
Total Recall
It hasn’t been released yet but “The Rocky Horror Picture Show” remake. For released movies “Psycho” remake is the worst.
The worst remake was Godzilla.
Arthur…even the first one sucked!
Arthur
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. I am sorry it was unecessary and horribly creepy instead of whimsical
The Le Femme Nikita remake of Breaking Point sucked mountain oysters
Halloween
Straw Dogs
King Kong
king kong
king kong
godzilla
Psycho
Planet of the Apes
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. I loved Gene Wilder in Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory with all his mischief and craziness. It’s a classic. Even though the remake had some interesting scenes, overall I thought it was just terrible. It didn’t come together and the heart of the movie was lost.
The Shining
Arthur
King Kong
Footloose
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
The remake of King Kong so sad …
The worst is the Land of the Lost movie. I loved the series as a kid. My kids loved it when I showed it to them on DVD. The movie was a joke. Sadly it was an unfunny one.
Footloose…they followed the same story line and just updated it…pathetic & horrible….many more too
Conan the Barbarian
Nightmare on Elm Street
The truth about Charlie (Charade remake) starring Mark Wahlberg and Thandie Newton. Poor substitutes for Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn if you ask me!
Planet of the Apes
too many to name
the wizard f oz
Psycho
Arthur, absolutely diabolical and fell flatter than a pancake !
Nightmare on Elm Street. The original is the best.
frankenhocker
Planet Of The Apes.
Dawn of the dead
Planet of the Apes
The Wiz
HALLOWEEN!
Planet of the apes
