“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds."

Puss Bucket (1991)
aka Pus$Bucket
Yet another contender for worst film ever made, this extremely rare VHS is about Judas and Corned Beef (God, I wish I could stop there - THAT would be a film), two rednecks who watch a lot of religious TV programming. They don't seem to notice when aliens have knocked the roof off their shack, but they get convinced the aliens are actually the Virgin Mary, who wants them to kill people and collect the pus from their skulls (in a bucket, hence the title) and bring it to them. There's also a scientist and his wife and some military personnel... and musical numbers. It's like they wanted to make their own "Rocky Horror Picture Show." There's very unsexy sex scenes (an orgy with a nipple cut off - and not as well as even H.G. Lewis would do it - and an overlong whipping), never synced sound, meandering and pointless detours, people doing cartoon voices... the director (a woman) didn't even get the title spelled correctly or understand what pus is. There isn't even much killing of people to collect pus. In short, there's nothing but stuff to annoy the viewer.
