    From IMDB: “8 stuntmen were seriously injured during the filming of this movie due to lack of the implementation of safety regulations”

    Only 8?

    This thick slab of 80’s cheese includes a “Sam, they made the pants too long!” call-back to MST3K 814 – Riding With Death. I wonder, does that count as pandering? Whatever the case it’s all just slightly unwholesome, rather pointless good fun, and to quote The Hitchhiker’s Guide: “Mostly harmless”.

    I am thinking that movie roles for Erik Estrada kinda fizzled after he blew his right nostril off with that pistol.

    Still hoping they’ll get around to “Thrashin’,” the eightiest eighties movie from the eighties ever:

    That sounds amazing! I would love the chance to cruise the ’80s on a skateboard right now.

    Given their taste for riffing the same movie several times in a row, they’ll probably get into it fresh off of Rad.
