Admittedly I wouldn't have seen Monster-a-Go-Go if I hadn't watched MST3K. There it was described in such a way that I immediately decided to see it if it really was as bad as made out to be. After seeing Monster a-Go-Go, it is as bad as people have said and worse. The movie's problems are so vast that if you had a notebook and pen and were writing down the flaws as you went along you are guaranteed to have a full notebook. Seeing as there is a word limit on IMDb I can't do a notebook's worth of flaws, but I'll mention the main problems in as simple a way as possible. I'll apologise in advance though because after reading the reviews here that described the badness of the movie so well I thought to myself what else is there left to say, so if you don't like repetition you might not want to read on.
Monster a-Go-Go is very badly made. And I don't just mean rushed editing or the like, I mean a proper amateur's job all round. The camera work was often enough to make what was going on on screen incoherent and the sets looked as though they were going to fall over any minute. And not in quite some time have I heard dialogue this horrendous(you'll be laughing out loud at its cheesiness and irrelevance), and the fact that it's badly recorded doesn't help. As for the story, what story? Almost nothing happens, and when something does happen it is done in a dull way and never comes together as a whole. The ending is one of those screw-the-audience endings and the absolute worst in this regard, it actually makes you feel cheated, you do not want to feel that watching a movie. The characters are useless, even the ridiculous-looking monster, and to say that the acting is like watching robots is an insult to robots. The music is the best thing about the movie, but that's not saying very much.
To conclude, every bit as bad as its reputation. I'm not entirely sure whether it's the worst movie ever made just yet, but it is certainly down there as one of the worst. 0/10 Bethany Cox
