It has taken more than a century but Ireland finally has an Ed Wood it can call its very own. Kit Ryan’s debut feature valiantly strives toward being So Bad It’s Good. The acting demands a decent cast to affect dreadful Russian accents. The plot – a botched robbery leads to a hostage crisis and a grisly encounter with Ivan the Terrible – is suitably rubbish. Trouble is, So Bad It’s Good never really works unless it happens by accident rather than design. While there are laughs to be had, a bad movie is a bad movie and Botched is a very bad movie indeed. As we’ve learned from too, too many Troma pictures, the joke wears pretty thin after about, oh, five minutes.
