Review:

Well, this is the worst movie I've reviewed for Channel Awesome Month! Let me quickly address the controversy surrounding that website. Many of its contributors left because they were underpaid and some were even injured while filming their anniversary movies. Anyway, I was first interested in this movie because it was apparently one of the lowest rated movies ever reviewed on the website. I think the last time I checked, it had a score of 2.2, but now it's 4.1. I'm sad that it still isn't at 2.2.

This movie is just plain bad. It tells the story of some evil wizard who traps a guy and his girlfriend in some other dimension where he forces the guy to complete seven challenges. The funny thing is that each challenge actually had a different director work on it. It's amazing that a collaboration this big could make something so bad. The dumbest part is when he has to complete a challenge by fighting Jack the Ripper, the Wolf Man, and a samurai while using an exploding ice crystal belonging to Albert Einstein. Yes, that really happens.

It's times like this that make me wish TVTropes still had a page on I Am Not Making This Up. The acting and dialogue are amazingly cheesy and the effects look just plain stupid. Nearly every action scene in this film is idiotic and makes no sense. There's even completely random scenes that serve no purpose at all, like him firing a laser at the negative of a demon or making dragons fight. It's so repetitive as he just uses a laser to beat every enemy. This film is an utter waste of time and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. .
