Review of Ozone

Ozone (1993)
Skip the popcorn...this is quite corny enough

Warning: Spoilers
Police detective tries to take down drug lord after the murder of his partner, proceeds to get tangled up in a dark underground of a new street drug that turns people into zombies. Sounds decent right? Wrong. It immediately descends into the worst sort of sloppily made self indulgence. Lowlights include:

Two humanoid globs of goo having sex (the detective under the influence of the drug and a female fellow junkie)that results in the actress looking strained as she poops out a gooey baby later.

A random mad max arena battle to the death with....giant pizza cutters?

Way too many shots of lead actor James Black staring into the mirror, seemingly contemplating his receding hairline.

The only reasons that this did not get a one are:

James Black's acting is not all that bad (he later moved on to such c list productions as Jean Claude Van Damme vehicles)

That they spent half of the films budget on a not too terrible looking(considering the finances) mutant drug lord

It is very easy to make fun of in a room full of friends.
