31 Days of Horror 2021 Day 11 Tammy & the T-rex (GORE CUT)
TITLE-Tammy And the T-Rex(GORE CUT)
SOURCE-Shudder Streaming Service
While this movie came out at the tail end of 1994,I had never heard of it until sometime in 2010. Someone mentioned the film to me. They had seen it on USA years ago. I thought ok this sounds pretty dumb but I will give it a shot. Found a rip of the hard to find VHS on Youtube. Downloaded it and then it sat on a external HD. And I never watched it before that drive died.
Skip ahead to 2019 and I saw that Vinegar Syndrome had found the lost "GORE CUT" and was releasing it on Blu Ray. In most countries outside the USA this film got an R rating. But in the US it was cut down to PG 13 to attract a family audience. But the film bombed. And really would have been forgotten about. Except that it is early roles for both Denise Richards and Paul Walker.
Tammy's(Denise Richards) new boyfriend Michael (Paul Walker) ends up getting mauled by a lion and is in a coma. A local mad scientist wants to take Michael's brain and put it in this T-rex robot he has.
This T-rex robot,after Michael's brain is put in it,escapes and finds Tammy. She figures out it is Michael. And her and her best buddy try to find Michael a new body. The mad scientist comes after the T-Rex. The police get involved. T-Rex gets destroyed.
Tammy saves Michael's brain. Hooks it up to speakers a video camera and a computer. And the film ends with Tammy doing a striptease for Michael's brain. Which causes the brain to shoot out sparks.
Sounds insane right? Well it is. But wow this was a flat out fun movie to watch. Add in that I watched it as part of Joe Bob's Valentine's Day special.
Tammy and the T-Rex(GORE CUT) gets a C+.
