We've all got one: Jar Jar, Star Trek V, Armageddon, the 1998 godzilla, Mac and Me, Amanda Heard in Aquaman.

There is no judgment here. Confess, receive absolution, find a friend who's into the same weird, shameful stuff you are.

Fortress (1992). Christopher Lambert, Loryn Locklin and Kurtwood Smith star in this dystopian film about a couple who are sentenced to an inhumane, computer run, escape proof prison. The entertaining supporting cast includes Jeffrey Combs, of Reanimator fame and Clifton Collins who played Lawrence on WestWorld.

It’s a cheesy, low rent sci-fi film that is bad in all the right ways.

I think I remember watching that one in the theater. We were kinda jazzed for it because of Lambert and Highlander fame (it wasn't that long ago in 1992). I also mainly remember the exploding coller things. Not a single plot point though.

Wow - Loryn Locklin was in another of my guilty pleasures - Catch Me If You Can (not the DiCaprio one - this one's a teen/racing flick starring Matt Lattanzi). And I've never been disappointed by either Christopher Lambert or Kurtwood Smith.

I'm going to have to track this one down.
