Daddy's Girl (1996)
Rhoda Penmark must be rolling in her grave
Ever since "The Bad Seed" shocked and horrified audiences in the late 1950s', someone, at least once a decade, has attempted to recreate it's murderous mayhem. This was the '90s entry into the race, and it's a pitiful one. I don't get the "R" rating at all. This movie could fit comfortably on Lifetime Movie Network as it is. I suppose I should get to the plot. Well...there's this girl...who loves her adopted Father...a little too much...will kill anyone who tries to tear them apart...and that's about it. While it's professionally directed to look like a TV movie of the week, everything else (the acting, the writing, the atmosphere) is tone deaf and laughable. The guys at RiffTrax could do wonders with this.
Two-Bits & Pepper (1995)
One of the worst movies I've ever seen.
I'm a fan of "Mystery Science Theater 3000," so I've willingly sat through some of the worst films ever made. But when it comes to children's entertainment, it doesn't get more bottom-of-the-barrel than this little disasterpiece. Normally, there wouldn't be any need to write a review about movies like this. This movie disappeared into a well-deserved obscurity. But now I find it in 10 movie children's film DVD packs available for $5 at Wal-Mart. So some unsuspecting parent will stumble upon this film, think it a harmless piece of entertainment for the kids, and then proceed to traumatize their children for life with a story about bratty girls, creepy, repulsive, yet idiotic kidnappers, a dream sequence about a horse getting killed, a reference to white slavery (I'm not kidding), and a wonderfully bloody scene of a horse on an operating table after getting shot. Please...if you love your children...avoid this film. It's not for kids. It's not for ANYONE.
