...and that there has to be a battom of the barrel within that aphorism. "Slayers" offers itself up as such, continually prompting its audience to wonder, "Who bankrolls junk like this and why, and how do otherwise talented actors get themselves involved?

That this thing wrapped principal photography in eleven days speaks volumes, none comnplimentary. One can imagine how little time went into the script. Loads of B-roll footage can't conceal the paltry budget of the whole affair, nor the lack of any consistent direction or vision. Maybe writer/director/producer K. Asher Levin has some sort of deal going with Thomas "The Mist" Jane or something, a poker debt or something, and they managed to talk some friends into helping out and...and really, who cares? None of it came to anything worthy of attention. None of the ladies involved will be showcasing it on their CV; well, maybe. Lydia "Z Nation" Hearst, if only to prove she's staying busy.

Enough words expended on this contender for worst film of the year. You've been duly warned, and not just by me.
