| VHS Tape Description If you concentrate on the fact that Howard the Duck was a notorious box office dud (still brought up today) and considered one of the worst films of the '80s, it's entirely possible to enjoy this special effects piffle. Howard, played by a special effect puppet, lives on a planet where ducks evolved instead of apes, but one day he's sucked into a vortex and deposited on Earth. There he befriends Beverly Switzler (Lea Thompson), lead singer for the Cherry Bombs, becomes their manager, and, oh yeah, saves the Earth from the Dark Overlords. Jeffrey Jones is the villain and Tim Robbins (!) is there for comic relief. And who can resist the culmination of synthesizer pop, the Howard the Duck theme song, as realized by the Cherry Bombs? A midnight movie that your kids might watch more than you. --Keith Simanton |

BRING 'HOWARD THE DUCK' TO DVD! HOWARD THE DUCK! This film is Ace McCool!!!!!! It reminds me of when I was growing up! I remember thinking it was TOP BANANA!!!! BRING IT TO DVD ESPECIALLY IN THE UNITED KINGDOM! PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ITS GREAT FUN especially for young kids and BIG ADULT KIDS alike!!!!
Why the heck did I watch this on HBO in the 80s. My how some of these 80s movies looks so god-awful in retrospect. Was this Duck World supposed to be a parallel universe to Earth's? Howard's world and everything that went on there closely, all too closely resembled Earth's and it's inhabitants.
This movie is so lame and transparent. Why did I enjoy it in the 80s? Don't answer!
Good Fun I completely enjoyed this movie! Given, it's not the best movie in the world, but it is good humored fun. The character is hilarious and the inuendos will keep you rolling. This was one of my absolute favorite 80's movies, and I will be buying the DVD! |
