Theatrical
Motion Picture, 1996
Special
note from RD: Throughout
this induction, I make reference
to my good friend, the late
Merle Vincent, co-founder
of this site. I was thinking
of rewriting this, but spending
the holidays with Merle
is something I won't ever
forget, so I am therefore
leaving this completely
untouched. Enjoy this nugget
from Christmas past.
If
you ever doubt how much
we love our readers, go
rent this bomb from your
local video store. It is
without doubt, the most
innane, painful, and un-humorous
"comedy" ever
made. Hulk Hogan makes Ernest
(God Bless Jim Varney's
soul) look like an Academy
Award winner. Hell, this
thing even makes Body
Slam look good!
Where
to even begin. God, this
thing sucks. I knew it was
going to be painful, but
even I didn't know just
how bad it was going to
be. I recruited Merle to
come over and watch it with
me and my girlfriend. Neither
of them lasted the whole
film.
But
I, for your enjoyment, stuck
it out. You people damn
well better appreciate it!
8)
Ok,
let's just take a deep breath
and I will give you a run
through of the entire film.

|
The
video sucks even before
the feature presentation,
as it has a preview
of yet another Hulk
Hogan film, this one
entitled "Secret
Agent Club".
Hogan plays a "toy
store owner by day,
secret agent by night".
He dresses like a
nerd and things happen.
It looks terrible,
but it can't be much
worse than this... |
SWM
starts off with Hogan
sneaking up on a big
palatial estate. All
of a sudden, people
start attacking him
with various deadly
weapons, like WEED
EATERS. |
 |

|
Hogan
fights back with DISHWARE.
We
learn that the evil
doers actually work
FOR Hogan. You see, THEY ATTACK HIM
TO KEEP HIM IN SHAPE. |
It
turns out that Hogan
is actually a guy
named Blake. who,
according to the film,
is the "richest
man in 10 states."
He hocks nutritional
goods with his picture
on them.
He's
an egotistical jerk
who bitches about
his picture being
too small on the products.
Well, at least Hogan
didn't have to stray
too far from character
on that. |

|

|
For
fun, Blake likes to
have PAINTBALL
WARS with some
of his cronies. He
drives around in a
hummer and shoots
a police car with
some paint. Then he
makes funny faces
at the cops. |
In
danger of being caught,
he hides in a shopping
mall and finds a Santa
suit. He then falls
down a shaft and gets AMNESIA. When
he wakes up, he really
thinks he's Santa.
As
Mick Foley wrote in
his book, amnesia
angles NEVER get over. |

|

|
As
Blake is being Santa
to some kids, a couple
of hoods try to steal
donations for the
local orphanage. The
bad guys attack Santa
with GIANT STYROFOAM
CANDY CANES, but
Santa Blake fights
them off. He then
decides, for no reason,
that he needs to go
to the orphanage. |
Meanwhile, LENNY THE EVIL
ELF finds out
that Santa is really
Blake, the rich guy.
You see, he recognized
who he was after looting
through his wallet.
Lenny decides he can
make money off of
Santa, so he befriends
him. Kinda like, say,
Ed Leslie. |

|

|
Cut
to a house with BIG
STEAM PIPES... |
We
learn that the house
is inhabited by Ed
Begley Jr., who is
a weirdo by the name
of Ebner Frost who
lives in fear of GERMS.
Merle:
"I've seen David
Lynch movies that
make more sense than
this!"
We
also learn that he
wants to demolish
the orphanage for
some reason. |
 |

|
Frost
has some equally evil
cronies, such as an EVIL ARCHEOLOGIST, an EVIL DOCTOR,
an EVIL PERFUMIST,
and an EVIL ELECTRICIAN... |
...who
ALL pale in comparison
in pure evilness,
of course, to an EVIL
ORIENTAL ED LESLIE.
Yes,
Ed "Brutus the
Barber Bootyman Man
without a Face Butcher Zodiac" Leslie.
And
I SWEAR I am not making
ANY of this up! |

|

|
By
this time, Hogan Claus
has shown up at the WORLD'S SMALLEST
ORPHANAGE, which
contains 3 children,
a woman who oversees
them, and GARRETT
MORRIS, of SNL fame.
At
this point, the bad
guys show up in an ICE CREAM TRUCK and try to run over
Garrett Morris, presumably
for no reason other
than the fact that
he's Garrett Morris.
Santa
Hulk stops the truck
by grabbing a chain,
and throwing onto
the Ice Cream Truck's
bumper.
What
kinda motor was in
that thing? A two-cylinder
Lawnboy? |
At
this point, Merle
can take no more and
leaves.
The
papers get wind of
Steroid Claus, and
dub him "Santa
with Muscles",
hence the idiotic
title of this idiotic
film. Here on out,
that's how we'll refer
to him. |

|

|
In
the meantime, one
of the three children
at the World's Smallest
Orphanage make Santa
with Muscles a new
suit.
My
girlfriend: "He
looks like a Village
People Santa."
Santa
bonds with the children
in a church pew, and mutters
my favorite quote of the film: "Fairies?"  |
For
some reason, the kids
go SPELUNKING under the World's
Smallest Orphanage.
They find a CRYSTAL
MINE WITH EXPLODING
GEMS. If you barely
drop them, they BLOW
UP.
Remember
that, because it's
important later.
Anyway, one
of the nerdy kids
tells them she knows
exactly what they
are. |

|

|
Later,
the Evil
Doctor attacks
Santa with Muscles
and they fight in
the bell tower of
the World's Smallest
Orphanage.
Santa
with Muscles easily
defeats the Evil Doctor,
despite his horrific
one liners.  |
As
Santa with Muscles
is enjoying the thrill
of victory, an EVIL
ANIMATRONIC SANTA throws him out of
the tower!
At
this point, my girlfriend
can take no more and
SHE leaves too, forcing
me to fend off the
horribleness myself. |

|

|
Santa
with Muscles wakes
up in Blake's bed.
Apparently, some garbage
men brought him home.
You
see, the GARBAGE
MEN WERE THE ONLY
PEOPLE IN THE WHOLE
MOVIE TO RECOGNIZE
HIM, EVEN THOUGH HE
WAS THE RICHEST MAN
IN 10 STATES!
Who
the hell wrote this?
Vince Russo? |
Santa
with Muscles feels
remorseful for being
an egotistical jerk
and goes back to save
the World's Smallest
Orphanage.
Along
the way, he runs into
the law again headed
up by Ron Howard's
worthless brother,
Clint Howard. The
police force fires
a BAZOOKA at Santa
with Muscles, who
deftly STEERS OUT
OF ITS WAY EVEN THOUGH
IT WAS FIRED AT POINT
BLANK RANGE.
Clint
then screams
what I had been feeling
throughout the whole
film.  |

|

|
Santa
with Muscles infiltrates
the World's Smallest
Orphanage, which has
by this time been
taken over by Frost
and his band of goons.
Hogan
runs right into EVIL
ORIENTAL ED LESLIE,
and uses the CRANE
TECHNIQUE from
the Karate Kid movies
to defeat him. |
After
defeating the goons,
Santa with Muscles
runs into Garrett
Morris, who is sitting
quietly in a room.
Morris explains that Santa with Muscles actually
grew up in the World's
Smallest Orphanage
with his best friend...Ebner
Frost!
No,
of course that doesn't
make sense, since
Santa with Muscles
doesn't recognize
Frost. |

|

|
Of
course, this leads
to a final battle
with Frost in the
mine, where Frost
suddenly DOES recognize
Santa with Muscles,
and explains that
he hates him since
he had nothing and
Santa with Muscles
had everything.
They
then start "sword
fighting" with
two shards of crystals.
The ones that if you
barely drop them,
they BLOW UP,
remember?
Well,
they clank them together
for about 10 minutes
without a scratch. |
Santa
with Muscles defeats
Frost. Suddenly, the
crystals go nuclear
and the mine starts
to collapse. Everyone
runs out to safety
and the World's Smallest
Orphanage implodes. |

|

|
Then,
in the movies one
truthful moment, every
one gives their opinion
of the film.
(See,
everyone is holding
their nose due to
a stench. Sadly, the
acting is so bad that
still photos may not
be able to get that
across). |
Naturally,
all the kids move
into Santa with Muscles'
house. Actually, not
just the kids - EVERYONE,
including Garrett
Morris (who is now
Santa with Muscles'
gardner) and Lenny
the Evil Elf, who
sunbathes.
Everyone
lives happily ever
after, except for
me, my girlfriend,
and Merle who are
permanently scarred
for life. |

|
As
of this reposting, Santa
With Muscles is only number
7 on the list of the worst
movies aof all time. That
means six movies are actually
worse than this one.
BULLSH*T!
If
you really appreciate Wrestlecrap
and all the horrific stuff
we wade through for your
amusement, do us a favor.
Go over to Internet Movie
Database RIGHT NOW (here's
the link)
and give Santa with Muscles
a 1 out of 10. If enough
of us vote, we can get it
to register as the WORST
MOVIE OF ALL TIME, which
it truly deserves. It's
almost there now, so if
it gets a few more "1"s,
we can make history.
- Santa with Muscles: "Fairies?"
- Nerdy Girl: "I know what these are!
These are pizo-electric
crystals. I read about them
in my geology book. They're
quartz crystals with natural
electricity in them. Their
vibrations put out power.
They must be worth millions!"
- Evildoer: "Santa, you sleigh me!"
- Clint Howard, the World's Most Worthless
Cop: "Which one of
you turkeys is responsible
for this???!!"
- Garrett Morris: "You grew up here.
Look - see the boy sitting
right next to you? He was
your best friend, Ebner
Frost!"
