n "Fatal Conflict", Kari Wuhrer ("Eight
Legged Freaks") plays a woman who is sent to stop a runaway prison ship
that has been taken over by a vengeful psycho. The screenplay by Chris Hyde
offers up the most ludicrous, convoluted, and logic defying mess that I have had
the displeasure of witnessing in a long, long time.
The only people who should
ever watch "Fatal Conflict" are those who wishes to know what it feels
like to actually feel their I.Q. slowly dropping with each passing minute
of screentime.
But for the bad b-movie lovers among us, "Fatal
Conflict" is the finest example of why we exist in the first place. It is
so bad, so incredibly insipid, and so completely beyond the realm of reason and
logic, that one has to marvel at the giant set of brass balls writer Chris Hyde
and director Lloyd A. Simandl must possess in order for them to actually take
credit for this sludge.
The film actually bears a
striking resemblance to the superior (at least in comparison) "Lethal
Target". Both films were written and directed by the same men. They
even re-used the same sets, nearly identical storyline, and the same stock
footages.
Plus, they even re-used the Max character played by David Fisher.
I guess they thought the character was really great. Or something.
