worst film ever made

Hands down, this is the most inept specatacle ever made, filled with senseless violence perpetrated against the friends of the fictional Carl J. Sukenick, played by the director, etc: the real Carl J. Sukenick. This film, mostly shot on video, has lots of martial arts battles the cast laughs through, a noisy soundtrack that sounds like it was played by an on -set stereo (what the heck is a music "recomposer" anyway?), and a scene in which a female enemy agent plays around with the weapons she is stealing, after taking her top off, which delays her to the point that Carl's friend Joe makes it to her, and wants to rape her as a punishment, stealing her bra and stroking her breasts. The almost-certainly pseudonymed actress Deveen Dellisee wears a black mask throughout the entire film. Characters are brutally maimed for no apparent reason, and Carl wins by killing everybody, one of whom he sets on fire in a scene that used Panavison film. About the only things that make this thing worth watching are its chronic repetitiveness, such "My name is Carl Sukenick, I remember, I remember. I remember I rememeber (etc.)" and "I sent my friend Joe to stop the female enemy agent from stealing the weapons from the base. I said I sent my friend Joe to stop the female enemy agent from stealing the weapons from the base," both of which are in the narration! Even in the stop-motion climax, a hand is hacked up into nothingness, corpses are savaged, in what is perhaps the ultimate garbage ever made on film, but hardly disgusting enough to make it offensive, merely stupid.
