Was pretty funny. The Arnold voice was the best. Looking forward to watching the other two movies. Hope they make more.

Barbie & Kendra Storm Area 51
I became an official voter for the Razzies, aka the Golden Raspberry Awards, at the beginning of 2020, and I was looking forward to voting again in 2021, despite there being no cinemas open in the coronavirus pandemic. The Razzies this year would include films released online, and I received an email of suggested titles that could receive nominations, of those released before lockdown and on digital platforms. Among the suggested titles were a trilogy of films starring characters named Barbie and Kendra, and I could tell just by the poster that this, the third of the three films, it was going to be awful. Basically, dumb blonde Barbie (Cody Renee Cameron) and her best friend, equally ditsy brunette Kendra (Robin Sydney),are still stuck social distancing together. The COVID-19, or coronavirus, pandemic is still causing devastation across the world. With everybody self-isolating, the only thing the girls can do is stay indoors, away from the corona zombies that are still lurking around and watch television. Recent news reports that secrets have been revealed from Area 51, proving the existence of alien intelligence on Earth since long ago. Barbie and Kendra are scared of the aliens, or "extra testicles" (extra-terrestrials) as they refer to them. But, determined that they can somehow save the world, they decide to dress as intelligent beings themselves, in silver costumes. They settle down to watch a TV special telling the story of an alien invasion in Area 51. In this documentary footage, humanoid aliens landed on Earth, but not to take over or destroy the world, but to save it from other beings. Other unworldly creatures, including alien monsters and giant robots (seen in the previous film) are the enemy, and threaten the lives of a family hanging out in the desert. There is also a giant, green-lit pyramid called Trilexa which can do anything on command. The intelligent beings from outer space show up, exploring and monitoring, and eventually combat the enemy creatures. The story ends with the aliens setting up a hidden home within Area 51. Barbie and Kendra decide to venture out, when suddenly a UFO shows up and starts blasting. The girls save themselves, teleporting themselves using the magical television remote control, but the corona zombies are still on the loose. Also starring Chris Zulch as the Corona Zombie. The majority of the film is footage from the films Space Thing (1968) and The Day Time Ended (1979) with new and deliberately silly overdubbed dialogue. The only original material are the scenes of Barbie and Kendra, which lasts about 10-15 minutes. The lead characters are highly annoying stereotypical young beautiful stupid women, the footage of the used sci-fi movies is daft, but the entire film being made up of footage from two other (virtually unknown) movies is just lazy. All its attempts to be funny, from the leading characters to the silly redubbed dialogue, with "jokes" about recent culture and news, including coronavirus, celebrities, TV, and other stuff, are just awful. It is easily one of the cheapest made (for obvious reasons) and most ridiculous films of recent times, only an idiot will find this funny or enjoyable. You'd much rather be wearing a face mask, constantly cleaning surfaces, and excessively putting on hand gel or washing your hands than watching this atrocious science-fiction comedy. Poor!
Work that planet
The bulk of the film is two old movies spliced together as one with the soundtrack gutted and replaced to create a new film aka "What's Up Tiger Lily?" Two airheads watch the film and comment. I actually laughed at some of the lines which I thought were clever. It is mild critique of modern society and takes a major stab at Amazon's Alexa. Could have been worse, could have been better.
Guide F-word, sex, old film nudity from "Space Thing" (Karla Conway, Merci Montello, Fancher Fague, Cara Peters)
