Microwave Massacre

“They Came For Dinner... To Find They Were It!!”

Certified Crap. CrapScore 69, rated by 1 admin.

Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.

Why it’s crap
A construction worker's dissatisfaction with dinner becomes a grisly culinary hobby. This deliberately tasteless horror comedy combines old-fashioned comic delivery with cannibalistic absurdity; some stretches drag, but the tonal mismatch remains memorable.

Synopsis and movie facts

Construction worker Donald is having a hard time getting anything good to eat since his wife has decided to only cook gourmet foods. That and her constant harping causes him to snap, so he whacks her. Somewhere in the confusion he comes up with a new use for the microwave oven, and begins to eat much better. Soon he's experimenting with different recipes. And different meats.
