“There Is No Los Angeles” - In the Year 2889 (1969)

In the Year 2889 (1969) is a science fiction shocker that may or may not be set in the year 2889, directed by auteur Larry Buchanan and named after a Jules Verne story.

Some of your universe's critics are unkind to In the Year 2889. For example, reviewer preppy-3 writes, "The script is just dreadful.... The lines are just stunningly stupid." Reviewer lambiepie-2 calls the film "a great example of crap-crap-crappity-crap-crap-crap." And reviewer mark.waltz writes (admittedly cleverly), "This movie is not red hot with radio activity. It's freezing cold with complete boredom thanks to the most absurd of plot set-ups, hideous acting and absolutely rotten production values."

“I Hope You Remember That the Next Time You Get Dressed” - Curfew (1989)

Let us now examine the classic home invasion thriller from 1989, Curfew. Starring Kyle Richards and made by the director of 13 Going on 30 (2004) and Charlotte's Web (2006), this chilling film asks the question "How far will two escaped murderers go to get revenge?" and then, mostly, answers that question.

Of course, some of your universe's critics are lukewarm about this classic. For example, reviewer JohnSeal writes that the film may be seen as "severely wanting in technical proficiency, quality of screenplay, acting, and music." Reviewer HorrorFan1984 calls the film "a very skippable late 80's movie in the horror genre." And reviewer metalrage666 writes, "there are way too many plot holes and moments of mind-numbing stupidity to make this worth watching."
