Viewing Notes

This is not a good movie but I love the idea that all these folks were hanging out at a horror convention when these filmmakers pitched the idea of a Justice League flick featuring a who’s who of horror icons and scream queens. I dunno if that’s how it started but it seems like it given the conventions I’ve been to.

I wish Debbie Rochon and Tiffany Shepis got more than background roles but great to see Dee Wallace in a solid role (the reason why I watched this). Ofc it’s always good to have Barbara Crampton. And I’m a fan of Cortney Palm going back to her Zombeavers character. Very surprised that Linnea Quigley is not in this; has to be story behind that.

I held off viewing this for a long time bc the ratings are so lousy but I had a fun time. Probably bc I was thinking about all the on set conversations between these legendary actors.

No shocker that Danny Trejo is my most seen actor here (52 films) and I was unhappy when he appears. I don’t need Trejo higher on my list! Second is Sid Haig at 35 films.
