About this movie

George Lucas presents Howard the Duck the comedy adventure about a fast-talking, cigar-chomping, beer-loving duck from a parallel universe who somehow winds up in Cleveland! The incredible fantasy has Howard the object of everybody's desire, in love with a rock singer (Lea Thompson), and doing battle with the evil Dark Overlord as he attempts to return to his own planet. One of the most talked-about movies of all time, the wacky, elaborately produced spoof of life, love, comic books and horror movies is a hidden treasure the whole family can enjoy.

P U this movie stinks worse then a pile of poop baking in the hot August sun. How in the world did it get a rating of 4.3★???? Oh, I see now the people with some taste stayed away. I did see it back in the '80s and boy was I upset I wasted my time with it. Lea Thompson must've lost a bet.

This movie is wrong and crappy on so many levels. That being said, this film is one of my all time favorites! The jokes were terrible, the subject matter was incredibly inappropriate (beastiality and anthropomorphic duck breasts) the duck effects were stiff and poorly designed. So bad it is great! On top of that and all the 80s camp, we are presented by one of the scariest and coolest looking monsters in film history!

Yes, it's dumb, but if you're a child of 80s then this movie probably has a special place in your heart.
