It’s been a little while since we’ve had a Mock the Movie victim subject that was freely available to everyone. Tomorrow night, we fix that.
Night of the Demon (1980) –
Presented in flashback, the film tells the story of an anthropology class’s all-too-successful expedition into the American wilderness to find the truth behind the Sasquatch legend. Along the way, the team learns about the creature’s previous victims, uncover the squalid story of a hermit (Crazy Wanda) who gave birth to a mutation after being raped by the monster, and finally come face to face with the beast himself.
This is clearly going to be a horrid movie, requiring mocking. The only question is whether those of us watching will be in too much pain to be funny. (We add suspense even if the movie doesn’t.)
If you want to join us in our pain, the movie is available in full on YouTube. The instructions for playing along:
Once you’ve got the movie going, tweet your snarky comments to @MockTM. Directing our tweets to @MockTM will keep our followers from being overwhelmed with our snark!
Stephanie Zvan is one of the hosts for the Minnesota Atheists' radio show and podcast, Atheists Talk. She serves on the board of Secular Woman. She speaks on science and skepticism in a number of venues, including science fiction and fantasy conventions.
Stephanie has been called a science blogger and a sex blogger, but if it means she has to choose just one thing to be or blog about, she's decided she's never going to grow up. In addition to science and sex and the science of sex, you'll find quite a bit of politics here, some economics, a regular short fiction feature, and the occasional bit of concentrated weird.
Oh, and arguments. She sometimes indulges in those as well. But I'm sure everything will be just fine. Nothing to worry about. Nothing at all.

This is, apparently, some sort of remake of the 1957 classic horror movie of the same name. Like all too many remakes, it stinks up the joint. In the unlikely event that anyone is interested in watching this stinker, it is also available on BTTorrent and RapidShare for downloading. I’m not going to bother and post a link. Google is your friend.
Sadly I work on Thursday evenings otherwise this kind of thing would be hilariously fun to join. I’ve done my share of bad movie watching for the sake of good blogging (http://tinyurl.com/7ve8wrv). I like that my local library buys some very cruddy stuff. An atheist friend and I keep meaning to get together to watch Christian themed movies. Episodes of Bibleman are also on our list.
