In similar news, I read somewhere recently that a judge had ordered that shelved Jerry Lewis film about a clown at a concentration camp can be shown in 2024.

I have not. I have not heard of this. I wonder what Molotov from BMMB would say about this? We all remember his thoughts on Jerry Lewis. For that matter, WTH did Jerry Lewis think of it? |

He was there a lot for a few years there. He was known for interjecting at random moments "Jerry Lewis sucks." He was also quite the scholar when it came GODZILLA vs. MEGALON. |

Not a movie-studio boardroom full of suits? |

With the exception, perhaps, of the end of my first marriage, I have been able to gauge the potential success or failure of all my romantic connections based on the woman's "Ugh, squick!"/"Bowie is so DREAMY" response to this movie. |

So which response earns her a thumbs down? Also, you assume I am the one who provided the thumbs down. Sometimes, yes. Once I figured out what the pattern was. It was the "Wow, is it 9:00 p.m. already? Let's fuck..." followed some days or months later by "I don't know what I ever saw in you..." situations that clued me in to the value of early and unambiguous rejection --by either party to the venture. Of course, as a married-and-sanely-in-love-thank-Bob-(Blessed is His Big Boy Burger) reptile, I no longer need to rely on such signals to determine my happiness. |

This is a question, rather than a discoveries post --I'm hoping it will lead to discoveries, however. Or at least a discovery.
Long time ago, when I resided in Austin, TX, my graduate school sweetheart and I went to the local Blockbuster Video. Which had on its shelves an apparently ordinary horror film about a fallen angel who had gotten trapped in a clock. Professional-looking case, cassette, the whole thing looked legit.
It turned out to be this absolutely BATSHIT evangelical Christian movie about how if you don't believe in Jesus just so, you were going to be slain by a Clock-Demon and roasted in front of Satan for all eternity. Gob-smackingly bad plot and dialog, so-so-ish special effects (except for the damned being tortured in Hell, which is clearly what they spent their effects budget on).
It was like a cross between a Chick Comic and an episode of Pagan Invasion (if you've ever had the pleasure of seeing both).
I have never been able to remember the exact title, nor the film company, since. While I don't think this has anywhere near the stature of HIM, I can't believe it was just somebody's local church production tape either...
Any Zombies out there heard of this thing?

No, but it sounds like essential viewing. |

That sounds a lot like something from Cloud Ten Pictures, an evangelical film company that churned out a lot of absolute garbage in the early 2000s. That would be where I'd start looking.

No significant hits for Cloud Ten Pictures --though Gary Busey in a cut-rate Left Behind-ish movie seems promising... The LaLonde brothers, though...might be able to do some more tracking through them.
PsychotronicJeebusGrindhouse films... I might have to get interested in "bad" movies again.
