The Word 'Fantastic' Has Never Been Used So Loosely

So, awhile ago I was reading about a Fantastic Four movie that was made in the early 90s, and was so bad it was never released. In fact, rumour has it it was never meant to be released, and was filmed only so that the studio responsible could maintain its hold on the Fantastic Four license. My curiousity was well-and-truly piqued, and luckily, youtube is our friend. Here, for your viewing pleasure and/or chagrin, is a scene from the first Fantastic Four movie:

Here's another:

Another, quite quick but equally terrible, clip:

And here's the- quite frankly, truly incomprehensibly awful- trailer:

I know what you're thinking- 'where can I see the entire movie for myself?' Well, to be honest, I don't know. Apparently bootleg copies of it are fairly common, but to be honest, I'm not sure I could bring myself to watch the whole thing.
For that reason, here's the ending:

The Fantastic Four are awesome, though.

Bad in a so bad it's mind-blowing way, I think.
