Frankenhooker actually looks hilarious, would like to watch it someday.

Demolition Man a bad movie?

It was just okay when it came out, and a good parody of it's own genre, and it's one of the few movies that have just has gotten better with time.

Demolition Man was poorly received by audiences and critics, and it was a box office bomb, so I think it counts. But IMO, it's a fun as hell film, and I think (Like Paul Verhoeven films) most missed the satirical edge of the film.

Frankenhooker is fantastic! You can't go wrong with it.

Oh, and speaking of the 1990s, I forgot about this one Carpenter anti-classic:

I didn't know Demolition Man was poorly received. It even has a 59% on Rotten Tomatoes, certainly not perfect, but not that bad either.

Other Movies I forgot:

Jeremy Irons is absolutely delicious in this movie. But forget pretty much everything else about it.

Not so much a bad movie actually, but had an absolute trainwreck of a marketing campaign, marketing the comedy as an action flick. Of course everybody hated it as an action movie, but it's a fine comedy - if pretty nonsensical.

Edit: also forgot this one:

Actually a very deep movie, but the focus on pretty girls in very fanservicey costumes and ludicrous action scenes didn't actually make it any favors.
