Really Awful Movies: Ep 12 - Get Even

February 14, 2015

One of the all-time great good-bad movies – this one is a vanity piece that stars a California trial lawyer-cum action superhero and martial artist John de Hart, who looks like a grinder from the 1984 Philadelphia Flyers.


He plays a cop, Rick, who along with a buddy, are dismissed from the force by a corrupt higher-up. His buddy "Huck," founded a religion based on Huckleberry Finn and does an unintelligible soliloquy about it, while standing waist-deep in a swimming pool (which doesn't even crack the Top 5 weirdest moments).


There's also a subplot about a devil-worshipping cult as our heroes seek revenge and go after their boss, who suddenly goes from chief to judge!


A true gem.
