Ultraviolet (2006; Kurt Wimmer) – Best of Dare Daniel Rerun 10
Daniel and Corky bravely subject their mind’s eyes to the memory of Milla Jovovich in the retina-shredding Ultraviolet.

Critic scores: 9 on Rotten Tomatoes; 18 on Metacritic
This week’s Darer: Marco Cabodi
Why did Marco dare Daniel and Corky to watch Ultraviolet? “Nonsensical Milla Jovovich action vehicle that alternates between incredibly ambitious and incomprehensibly stupid. It’s an amazing mix of everything being almost not as awful as it is. It’s admirably unwatchable.”
IMDB synopsis: “A beautiful hæmophage infected with a virus that gives her superhuman powers has to protect a boy in a futuristic world, who is thought to be carrying antigens that would destroy all hæmophages.”

Fateful Findings – Best of Dare Daniel Rerun 9
“I can’t believe we’re revisiting Fateful Findings.”

FATEFUL FINDINGS FACTS AND FIGURES
U.S. festival premiere: Dec. 8, 2012
This week’s darer: Gunnar Pearson
Gunnar’s dare: “You guys talk about bad movies and every show or podcast that talks about bad movies must at one point review a film by true American auteur Neil Breen. Fateful Findings is a romantic drama . . . I guess? Breen is the writer, director, lead actor, editor, set dresser and about a hundred other things, and he is awful at all of them.”
IMDB synopsis: “A computer-scientist/novelist reunites with his childhood friend, hacks into government databases, and faces the dire and fateful consequences of the mystical actions he obtained as a child.”
This week’s referenced movies: Deadly Attraction; Old Fashioned; The Room; Love on a Leash; Dangerous Men; Rebel without a Cause; Skullduggery; The Goonies; The Long Goodbye; Rawhead Rex; Memento; Fast Times at Ridgemont High; Jeremiah Johnson; The Godfather Part II; JFK
Ratings: Daniel – Double Dare; Corky – Double Dare

Cool as Ice (1991; David Kellogg) – Best of Dare Daniel Rerun 11
“I’m gonna go across the street and, uh, schling a schlong.”
Daniel and Corky put on their formal parachute pants to revisit their wildly popular review of Vanilla Ice in the wildly unpopular Cool as Ice.
COOL AS ICE FACTS AND FIGURES
U.S. theatrical release date: October 18, 1991
Domestic box office: $1.2 million (production budget: $6 million)
Critic scores: 7 on Rotten Tomatoes
This week’s Darer: Heather Smith
Why did Heather S. dare Daniel and Corky to watch Cool as Ice? “Because you need to drop that zero and get with a hero. But this one might be too awful for any human consumption. The whole movie is a cringe-fest, it’s like trying to watch The Office‘s Michael Scott attempt to lead a diversity workshop. If you choose this movie, I cannot be legally held responsible if you roll your eyes so hard in your head that they get stuck. You have been warned.”
IMDB synopsis: “A rap-oriented remake of The Wild One (1953), with heavy emphasis on the fact that Vanilla Ice has assumed the Marlon Brando role.”
This week’s referenced movies: The Ridiculous 6; Schindler’s List; Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves; Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze; xXx; The Fast and the Furious franchise; One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest; Grease; Down by Law; A Christmas Story 2; Seabiscuit; Enter the Dragon; Bad Boys; Fifty Shades of Grey movie franchise; Having a Wild Weekend; Crossroads; Elvis movies; Say Anything; Bio-Dome; The Island of Dr. Moreau
