The Mangler

“It has a CRUSH on you!”

Premium Crap. CrapScore 74, rated by 1 admin.

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

Why it’s crap
A possessed industrial laundry machine starts eating workers, leaving the investigation with a suspect that cannot reasonably be handcuffed. The performers take the supernatural machinery astonishingly seriously, while the escalating mythology gives a workplace-safety film the ambitions of an apocalypse.
