WTF Superhero Movies You Completely Forgot Existed

It’s amazing how superheroes have evolved on the big screen over the years. In today’s world, Marvel and DC superhero films seem to reign supreme. But it took a while for that to become the norm. And before that, Hollywood released a lot of WTF superhero movies.

If you actually remember these, you probably wish you could forget.

“Fantastic Four,” 1994

A cheap-*ss 1.5 billion budget film was made about four astronauts who got bombarded with space rays which gave them superpowers.

The effects and costumes made the “Power Rangers” kids series look expensiv. It was so bad, the producers were paid $2 million not to release the film.

“Supergirl,” 1984

The 80s flick showed Superman’s teen cousin, Kara/Supergirl, head to Earth in search of a a power source to save her home city.

But on the way, she ran into the crappiest villain, a witch named Selena who was no Lex Luthor, and the visual effects were just as bad as the predictable storyline.

“Howard The Duck,” 1986

A sarcastic duck heads to Earth to stop an alien invasion with the help of a scientist and a struggle rock singer who has the hots for him. You’ve got a cheesy B-movie plot with a chick with a serious case of Anatidaephilia. It’s a pretty heavy bizarre cocktail to swallow, for sure.

“Elektra,” 2005

Elektra is an assassin-for-hire working for an organization called “The Hand.” But when the target involves killing a man and his daughter, she suddenly develops a conscience. WTF?

The movie is so slow and uneventful that Elektra practically limps through the entire length of the movie.
