Yes this is a terrible film and yes that is a phone you see in the main characters face but any film is worth watching at least once don't let this review put you off ignore the terrible dialog and abysmal special effects and just enjoy the sight of the security officer with all the personality of a microwave, literally and the bad guy in the "...one place he is always alone...the s**tter" i've never looked at a toilet in quite the same way!

There's bad, and there's bad. "Plan 9 From Outer Space" is bad but at least it's so consistently awful that it's entertaining in a slow-motion-train-wreck sort of way. "Mutant" is bad and exceptionally boring to boot. I've seen better writing and acting in old Ultraman episodes. Absolutely dreadful.

Flush a guy down the toilet? That's really funny. (Yeah, right!) This film starts out looking serious, despite its title, with nice production design. Idiotically, a jazz musician gets a phone receiver pulled through his face, which is enough to give the overweight but otherwise in good health captain a fatal heart attack (This is supposed to be funny?) The scarred-up guy is hunted down, has sex in the shower with one of the crew, and deals with a transsexually-minded android who likes to put on women's clothing. As wild as that might sound, it is bogged down in tedium, and succeeds neither as a comedy or as science fiction.

Reviving B-movies is one thing, and unfortunately, MUTANT ON THE BOUNTY doesn't fit well in the modern, contemporary year of 1989 when movies were made to really attract viewers' tastes. This would have been a fairly decent film thirty years prior to this release, without the lame jokes and terrible acting performances. Even the sets are poorly designed, too! Who on Earth would let the actors wear their original garments in a spaceship anyway? It's also unbelievable that I counted 13 "F" words spoken, making it the highest number for a movie rated PG-13 by the M.P.A.A.! Here is yet another lame-brained comedy that gets tossed out of the window. Ranks right up there with LEONARD, PART 6!
