12 Cheesy Action Films More Fun Than Terminator Genisys

This is your typical Indonesian Terminator rip-off – the villain is the South Sea Queen of Asian folklore, whose sexual partners lose their pride and joy to the eel between her legs. When one Gentleman caller removes the eel, the Queen vows to avenge the “insult” by returning to claim the man’s ancestors.

A century later, the Queen possesses a bikini-clad ‘anthropologist’, causing her to act and dress like an Austrian bodybuilder. So far out so good, but then it really kicks into gear as director H Tjut Djalil rips scenes straight from James Cameron’s movie, including a shoot-out at a Tech Noir-ish bar and a sequence where our injured antagonist makes a pit stop to address her wounds.

The running gun battles are probably the least interesting part of a movie with this much blood, nudity, stupidity, bad hair and laughable dialogue, the kind of experience that words alone could not do justice to. Sure, it’s a knock-off, but it’s the brashest, craziest, most unapologetically outrageous knock-off you’re likely to see, whose sheer chutzpah makes it a much better bet than Genisys.
