Howard the Duck

Palm trees in Cleveland, Ohio.

In the diner scene, when Howard is levitated and spun around near the ceiling by Dr.

Jenning, the shadow reveals a pole reaching from the ceiling to Howard to achieve this effect.

When Phill is driving Beverly, Howard and Carter in a van to the lab, the shifter for the van is in the Park position.

- PLOTIn the diner scene, a truck driver grabs the key card from Howard and asks "What's this, the key to your duck mobile?" Howard never mentions that it is a key and it being a high-tech gadget, does not resemble a key in any way (especially not to a Mid-'80s truck driver).

Beverly's umbrella disappears from and re-appears in her bag when she first meets Howard.

During the diner scene when Dr.

Walter Jenning (while being the Dark Lord) sends the man through the window with his energy and the guy lands on a car, you can see that a wire that is attached to the guy.

Too many errors about nuclear reactors to list.

When Beverly is in Howard's wallet the cash still says Washington DC on it.

During the final scene, in which Beverly's band is playing on stage, there is a mirror as part of the stage in which the crew and camera can be seen occasionally.

The shape of Howard's head changes throughout the movie, depending on whether he's being portrayed by an actor in a suit, or as an animatronic puppet (his head is larger to accommodate the actor inside the suit when it's done that way; his head is narrower when it's just a puppet).

(at around 1h 11 mins) During the diner scene when the Overlord levitates and begins spinning Howard, the rope was edited out, but the shadow of the rope used to suspend the actor is still visible.

It's about time this finally got released in America! As a child, I loved it.

I was 8-years-old when 'Howard the Duck' came out in theaters. To a child under 12 at that time, Howard the Duck was a fascinating, entertaining movie that captured a youngster's imagination.

I must say after watching this film again I must admit that it actually isn't all that bad a film, though I am still deciding whether it should go into my keep collection on get put into my 'go and sell at Cash Convertors' collection. In a way I guess I can do without this film, though it is one of those classic 80's films that do bring back memories of a period in cinema where the special effects weren't digitalised yet still were realistic enough that they were able to create a pretty good film.

Howard The Duck is an interesting film to review. It's a big budget special effects spectacle, and yet there's plenty wrong with it.

All the miserable critics here just miss the point .....this is a hoot.......

I grew up with this movie. One of my most vivid memories is watching this movie on TV with my brother.

Like plenty of other people I enjoy watching (well, occasionally) awful films because the sheer awfulness makes them enjoyable. Plan 9 From Outer Space style "good" bad.

I'm not sure how this could have won the award for worst move of the decade, or even worst film of the year. I've seen hundreds of films that are worse than this.

Remember when films were actually funny?Remember when women were appealing and were not inked all over like cheap street walkers?
