Back in the day (1993, to be exact), Super Mario Brothers was pelted with rotten eggs by critics and audiences, but with hindsight, it’s a hideously fascinating artifact. Directed by the husband-and-wife team of Rocky Morton and Annabel Jankel (who created that ’80s pop culture touchstone, Max Headroom), this Nintendo game adaptation chugs a cocktail comprised of the titular video game, 1984 and The Three Stooges—then vomits the results all over a great cast (Bob Hoskins, John Leguizamo, Dennis Hopper and Samantha Mathis!)
