Re: Award for the most stupidest movie title in history goes to

My only compliant is that the movie kinda drags and it's slow paced. Surprisingly it played well enough to keep my interest and attention up to want to see what happened next.

What a strange ending.

I rate the movie 6/10

Ending spoiler

Spoiler:
At the end Face from the A-Team played by Dirk Benedict which was turned into a full King Cobra was trying to escape but a Mongoose got out of it's cage and kicked his ass and the movie ended abruptly with the chick (Heather Menzies) screaming "DAVID!!". She wanted to save him because she loved him. But it seems like the Mongoose perhaps killed him because he bite him many times.

Sssssss ruined me as a child. Saw it when I was about four or five on TV and couldn't sleep all night.

My vote for mostest stupidestest movie titles are any in the horribly long line of Finding [name] or Servicing [name] or Forgetting [name]. It was a goddamn naming fad that indicated just how out of imagination Hollywood had become.

Are you sure that's Hollywood and not San Fernando Valley?

Obviously the most stupidest title is Jurassic Park. I mean come on...most of those dinosaurs were from the Cretaceous Period. No wonder that movie bombed.

It was on here too on that channel. They rotate their movies so it'll probably roll around again.

At first I thought it was a Honey Badger. But doing some research about Sssssss I found out it was a Mongoose. I really couldn't tell the difference. They look so much alike.

Well, in any event, if you're a snake, you probably don't want to run into a mongoose.

Yup, before Jaws. I meant to put 70s but my mind was in the 80's.

Some fun facts about the movie via wiki:
Good choice... but shitty title or not you back off from my boy Cash Flagg and his permanently grafted hooded sweatshirt. Anyway no kidding about those facts, in fact the entire cinematography of this flick is freakin daring for 1964 the fact that there's so much handheld usage and plus it's in color. There is something about this movie, and i'm not alone even in the early 70s some rock musician made some essay on it i would love to read. There is also a bit of a freewheeling zeitgeist to it especially the most provocative line in the movie "Yeah the world's in a state of depression." and well... probably the best Psycho influenced movie. Ortega was also even a proto version to the mighty Torgo from Manos which arrived 2 years later to tread the earth beneath his goat feet.

Rambo III is a pretty stupid title (and you should all know why).

The Englishman Who Went Up A Hill But Came Down A Mountain is stupid primarily because any theater showing it ran out of letters for the marque.
