It’s clear that Ernie hasn’t recovered from that career-ending knockout, but he still figures on getting himself a gas station one day, or maybe he’ll knock Pauline up, using a box of chocolates as bait—advice from his former trainer and current boss at the cab company, Stan (Frank Faylen), that quickly backfires. To say Ernie is down on his luck is more than an understatement. Even his friend Linda (Evelyn Keyes) makes a sap of him with a poorly timed prank, using him as an unwitting step stool to get to her personal Mount Olympus—a leading role on Broadway—further bruising his ego as his own dreams of athletic triumph and marital bliss lie shattered before him.

Lamberto Bava’s Demons is one cool cucumber. It’s often hard to tell whether the film is satirizing the cold excess of 1980s horror cinema or indulging it (probably both), and that ambiguity informs even the slacker sequences with latent tension. The premise is simple even for an ultraviolent ghoulie feature: Folks are invited to a mysterious theater for a screening of a horror film and proceed to turn into demons that tear apart the remaining survivors, who soon turn, of course, into more demons.

5. The Quick and the Dead (1987) Wait, “The Quick and the Dead” is not underrated much anymore. Sam Raimi fans are celebrating it too often as they should but here we talk about another film with the same title, not the Raimi. It’s not as wild as Raimi’s film and doesn’t have much in common other than the title and the genre but still a very gripping tale of redemption. Sam Elliott has done a couple of Louis L’Amour adaptations on television. In the era when western was becoming a dying genre for the theatrical, these TV films were getting viewed and celebrated by many.

One of the most influential movie critics of all time, Roger Ebert was never one to prioritize niceties when it came to writing poor performance reviews. His opinion held the weight of an audience member in every punctuation mark, swaying them to see or not to see a film, including curating a list of the movies he considered to be the greatest of all time. When it came to assessing the worst movies he had the displeasure of watching, Ebert held no punches when awarding 0-star reviews to some of the worst comedies of all time. Comedy is subjective, but his opinions on those features at the bottom of the barrel (and the ones he deemed below that) are scathing and unforgiving.
