Bad Movie Review - The Violent Years

Bad Movie Review - The Violent Years

For a while I've shied away from reviewing movies that were on Mystery Science Theatre 3000, because that's quite frankly like shooting puppies in a barrel. At least tip the barrel over and give the puppies a running start.

When the movie in question is written by Ed Wood, Jr. you have to accept that the puppies were dead before the barrel was tipped over. So is the case with the 1956 movie "The Violent Years."



We start off with a judge who looks like he hasn't had a bowel movement since the Theodore Roosevelt administration, haranging two parents in his courtroom. Tearfully the mother things "where did I go wrong". My guess is picking up the phone call from your agent. But that's the cue for flashback city.

The trailer makes it sound like a 1950s version of Thelma & Louise, LOL...
