’80s icon showdown on Syfy [Bad Cinema]

Mega Python vs. GatoroidThere are bad movies, and then there are BAD movies. This Saturday, Syfy is going to bring a whole new level of badness to science fiction monster movies with the craptastic world premiere of Mega-Python Vs. Gatoroid.

Starring two of the ’80s top pop stars — Tiffany and Debbie Gibson — this film is destined to go down in history as one of the worst.

In their most recent Syfy roles, Tiffany starred in Mega Piranha, while Gibson starred in Mega Shark Vs Giant Octopus. While each of those movies was bad, it’s going to take both stars to raise (lower?) this latest Syfy original movie to a new level.

So how do two washed-up pop princesses get down and dirty in their long-awaited smackdown? Here’s a synopsis:

A production of The Asylum, “Mega Python Vs Gatoroid” takes an up-close-and-personal look at the crisis in the Florida Everglades where invasive Burmese pythons are threatening the indigenous alligator population. Gibson portrays a fanatical animal rights advocate who spends her evenings “liberating” illegally imported exotic snakes from pet stores and setting them free in the Everglades, where the pythons grow and thrive.

Tiffany plays an over-zealous park ranger worried about the growing ecological damage. To save her beloved alligators, she’s willing to employ dubious methods, overdosing them with steroids so they grow mega, setting off a war between the species – and putting her on a collision course with Gibson.

Mega Python Vs Gatoroid will premiere on Syfy Saturday, January 29, at 9/8 PM (ET/CT).
