In the 1987, the good people at MGM made a Garbage Pail Kids Movie. Of course they did. And you know what? It’s so bad. But I’m sure you figured. Of course it was bad. It was a Garbage Pail Kids movie. Made in 1987. Starring Mackenzie Astin and that dead eyed girl from the classroom montage in Ferris Bueller’s Day Off.

But, man oh man - the plot of this thing. It’s pretty incredible.

If someone where to say to you, “Not having seen it in a hundred years, or even ever what do you think the plot of the Garbage Pail Kids Movie would be?” and you didn’t say, “Mackenzie Astin has a schoolboy crush on a teen rebel who makes and sells her own clothes and when the Garbage Pail Kids show up it turns out they’re really good at making clothes so they help him out by simultaneously sewing clothes together and singing songs about how easy things are to do when you do them together. And then the whole thing culminates at a disastrous fashion show.” well then you’d be wrong. Because that’s the plot of The Garbage Pail Kids Movie. Turns out they’re really good at making clothes. Other stuff happens too, but that’s the real crux of the thing.
 
It’s as if some executive said “I want to make a Garbage Pail Kids movie and I need a script in five minutes” so someone went digging around and found some old script that had nothing to do with Garbage Pail Kids and said “here” and then they made it. Except with Garbage Pail Kids.  
 
Oh and it’s streaming on netflix and I suggest you watch it.
