HOOPTOBER 4.0 NIGHT EIGHTEEN: What can be said about this infamously bad King adaptation that hasn't already been said? Suffice to say one this goes beyond mere ineptitude and feels actively hateful towards its subjects, whether we're talking about the awful fat suit on Robert John Burke towards the beginning (and the unconvincing "thinner" makeup near the end), the horrifically racist depiction of the Roma culture, or how there's not a single likeable or relatable character in the entire thing. It's not even enjoyably bad, which IMO is the worst thing you can say about a bad movie.
