While assembling my next post, I came across video on Youtube of Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert reviewing Savage Steve Holland’s Better Off Dead at the time of it’s original release in 1985.
I guess I’m not surprised that they hated it, and it’s entertaining to watch them bash a movie that is now considered to be a cult classic.
By the way – check out these Siskel and Ebert outtakes, if you haven’t seen them. Great stuff.

Haha
