Full Moon's Bad Channels is completely bonkers, which in my book, is a good thing. In the middle of a shock jock's marathon radio stunt, a fungal alien takes the station over to broadcast songs that make girls in town think they're in hair band music videos, then teleports them into bottles, just one foot tall. Everyone just thinks this is a "War of the Worlds" type thing, but one intrepid reporter believes her eyes and ears. Ridiculous, but that's what makes it good. And though nothing is outright recognizable, the original music is kind of fun (Sykotik Sinfoney and D.T.I. mostly, but the score is by Blue Öyster Cult, and of course Full Moon's house band Joker has some supporting pieces). A fun alien invasion movie that certainly doesn't take itself seriously, but still manages to do something new with the genre. An end credit scene shows that Full Moon certainly knows how to link its properties. Shrunken women? Yeah, Dollman shows up. Move over MCU, Full Moon were the trendsetters. 4 years 9 months ago
