Barbie & Kendra Storm Area 51

I feel like Full Moon and Charles Band are really hitting rock bottom here... and that's saying something!

First of all, this is hardly a "movie," clocking in at 49 minutes (and WOW did I have a problem staying awake). It consists of "host" segments with the titular Barbie and Kendra, but the remainder of the, er, film is old movie footage (two movies senselessly spliced together) that is dubbed with more, er, hip and current dialogue. I realize other movies and shows have experimented with this technique, but I couldn't help but be reminded of the infinitely superior, clever, intelligent, and FUNNY minds behind MST3K and Rifftrax. They don't flat-out dub movies like this does, but the structure of Barbie & Kendra Storm Area 51 are eerily reminiscent of something previously done much, much, much better. That fact may or may not have factored in to my white hot hatred of this rather short foray.

I didn't find one second of this "movie" even mildly amusing. Worse still, one of the movies they dub is some grade-Z sci-fi skin flick, where I was SUPER curious what was actually being said! The dialogue presented was, frankly, insulting.

After watching the first 5 minutes of the two stars/hosts of this hot mess act like morons, I literally said out loud, Do these chicks get naked? (They don't). They are totally insufferable, but only appear sporadically to annoy you. Problem is, IT DOESN'T GET ANY BETTER! Maybe someone younger (and dumber) would find something of amusement. The running time alone shows a lack of commitment. Jeez, at least take the sleazy sci-fi movie, and run with it. In the other movie they dub an "Alexa" character, which is as dumb as it sounds.
