"Turkish Star Wars" - Tooting toilet paper monsters, Indiana Jones soundtrack, and so many explosions
To celebrate May the 4th, our bad movie club decided to watch Turkish Star Wars , a.k.a. The Man Who Saves The Earth or Dünyayı Kurtaran Adam . I had heard of this movie. I had seen clips of this movie. This is another bad movie which competes for the title of "Worst Movie Ever" alongside The Room and Troll 2 . I have to say, I think this movie makes The Room and Troll 2 look pretty competent. In fact, it makes Godfrey Ho movies (like the one we saw last time) look great. Now, despite commonly being called Turkish Star Wars , I don't think it was precisely intended to be a Star Wars movie. Apparently this was due to the set being destroyed before filming could begin, so they just decided to lift random scenes from Star Wars. It's actually quite interesting, and I highly recommend seeing this short documentary on YouTube about it regardless of whether you will actually watch the actual movie or not. The movie is from 1982, filmed at a time of political upheaval i
