I love that they don't yet realize Cameron Mitchell is Cameron Mitchell.

"Where did you find this guy?" "He's a friend at school-" "A FRIEND?!"

Jay just got back from playing some alley football.

This may be the greatest lineup of movies this series will ever have.

"I'm a friend!" "You're a liar!"

And we see our first appearance of our beloved Cameron Mitchell

Thanks for sharing Miami Connection. Been working at a Deli for like 8 months and this guy with a high pitched voice yells back to my coworker "see ya"; I thought something about the sound of him was familiar. It hit me after thinking about it, he sounds like Oh My God guy from Miami Connection. Ask the lady who has been serving him for years what his name is. Look up the cast of Miami Connection, same first name as the customer, wut. Text lady I work with at 10 oclock at night, send her link of Oh My God scene. 90 percent sure its him. She calls him Hollywood next time she sees him, he says what, how did you know. She credits me, and gives me his business card. I call one day and he gives me a signed printout poster and talks with me about Miami Connection for like an hr, cool guy. Lots of insight and laughs.Gives me a downloaded bluray of it a month later signed to my biggest fan, accidentally became his biggest fan, sweet. He comes around often, but never would have known who he was without Red Letter Media.

Jay clapping like an excited kid when sunglasses guy gets beaten with his own arm is really endearing

Only through the elimination of violence, can we achieve world Peace.

I've watched this video a few times and this is the first time I noticed the Miami Connection dvd cover features the black guy getting a letter about his father while an explosion happens behind him.

"We had a snake delivered here for the Department of Health, now that snake has been infected by deadly toxins from............. cancer-infested rats."

Weird to see Cameron Mitchell moving and actually doing something.

I love the clip of them watching Mitchell's speech from deadly pray, because rarely is the moment someone falls in love ever caught on camera.

My aunt’s ex husband, Joseph Diamand, actually wrote the screenplay for Miami Connection. Been a fan of RLM for so long and only just found out a couple of weeks ago that I used to be related to him.

Josh's confused grimace at 35:32 is still one of the most hilarious BOTW moments to me all these years later. He's usually so chipper and chatty, but that's a rare moment where he's completely bemused and at a total loss of words. Along with Jack, he's usually the one who understands what's going on in these terrible movies the most, but "Miami Connection" was too inexplicable for "the Wizard." He's reacting like he just walked in on Gregor Samsa turning into the giant insect.

So.... is there really no explanation as to why Jay is wearing a tux?

I like how that toilet was a portal to the snake dimension. It was glowing green and smoking when the snake came out of it, so it HAS to be some form of demonic magic!

10:53: Epic Cameron Mitchell scene.

6:40 - I love that Josh uses the somewhat archaic but correct term here: a ‘brace’ of grenades. Yay very specific words!

Keep forgetting how well Jay can hold his own comically for the show whenever Mike is gone, he’s great with everybody in the group.

Did they win Jay at a budget bachelor auction?

"It's like somebody without any understanding of human language or culture watched the first two Rambo movies, and they made a cross-breed of these two things they don't understand, but they put them in a movie" - Rich Evans (THE ONLY CRITIC THAT MATTERS ANYMORE)

3 films so good there's never even a consideration about destroying one of them. One of the greatest BotW lineups ever.

3:43 I just realized that the scene with the guy getting a letter from his long-lost dad was illustrated on the cover. And it's in front of an explosion. Amazing.

You guys should just watch three movies off of the Andy Sidaris collection and call it "Breast of the Worst"

Shoutout to Farcry: Blood Dragon for using Friends Forever.

I watched Miami Connection with my mom and it was the best bonding experience we've ever had. And yes, she loved it.

I love that they used to refer to Josh exclusively as Wizard.

Though I know Miami Connection is just a (un?)forgettable B-movie flick, as I'm Korean, I can see what was going on in the Asian guy's (who's co-directed and wrote this shlock) mind, because he's Korean, too: insane rivalry about practically anything about Japan (that's why movie's main villain is ninja, and one of the theme song is called "Against the Ninja"); devotion to parents (that explains why the Black guy cries and acts hysterically about the parents' letter); desperate attempts to be recognized as KOREAN worldwide, whether the foreign people cares or not... Those are the (quite nationalistic, I admit) frequent motifs that you could find in Korean fictional works or any of the cultural artifacts. They're today less frequently met in there (because the nationalism is not "in" anymore, particularly between the younger people), but when I was little (80's and 90's), those things were quite rampant - almost inescapable. I think this Taekwondo master is a product of its time. Well, at least, he tried and I completely respect that. (especially when I found out he practically was bankrupted due to the movie's failure) But it's also true that he's obviously a horrible translator of Korean cultures into American cinema; and budgetary problem, practically know nothing about how to make a movie, and he didn't have much charms neither as Bruce Lee nor as Jackie Chan - and, last but not least, just blindly following his own country's fad (nationalism) in a foreign country whose people didn't know anything about it.

One of the most essential episodes of Best of the Worst imo. A classic!

Is anyone else surprised that Deadly Prey actually has some legitimately great looking shots in it? 10:10 legit looks amazing (it's not a complicated shot at all, but it's an effective one)

The dad’s monologue in Deadly Prey is the greatest thing I have ever witnessed.

I LOOOOOVE how Rich occassionally complains about Mass Effect 3.

Can you guys go back and CGI jack's hair out of this video thank you

This was THE best movie lineup in BOTW history, period. 3 absolute classics.

If pure entertainment is the measure of a good movie, then Miami Connection has to be one of the best movies ever made. It is SO DAMNED FUN. It's not so bad its good, it's so atrocious its fucking awesome.

"Tara we need to stop and figure out how things happened" *Ponders for two seconds* "Let's unload and hit the jacuzzi"

It's an interesting moment when you're laughing along at this and then you see the Skateboard Guy from Hard Ticket To Hawaii and remember that you've seen that fucking movie before.

This is one of those episodes where I wish they talked about the movies more, especially Miami Connection.

I've watched this episode so many times, but I only just realized that the back story of the only black character in Miami Connection is that his father left him.

You'll be glad to know that, according to the wiki page, the shirtless black guy survives that gruesome wound and lives to meet his long lost father. This film is a winner! A Special Olympics winner, but still...

I finally saw Miami Connection this weekend. It was so much more horribly glorious than I ever expected. Also, I can't believe they didn't make mention how the Jim character gave a very Rich Evans-esque "OH MY GAAAAAAAAD!" during that mailbox scene.

Coincidence level: WHOA. I literally woke up this morning with vague memories of a weird cheesy 80s movie with ninjas fighting in some scraggly Florida backwater and it was one of those things that I wasn't sure if it was a real memory or just a fever dream. This evening I get bored and start "Best of the Worst" from the beginning for the first time, and BOOM there it is just a few episodes in: MIami Connection and the memories come flooding back of seeing this one wine-soaked night many years ago. It REALLY is a passion project, Tommy Wiseau eat your heart out, in the best way possible really!

A 7 year late bit of trivia : They're shouting "Taekwon! Taekwon!" during the chorus of the song "Against the ninja". Which is a common things to shout while practicing taekwondo.

He everyone we need to figure out what we just watched, Lets unload and hit the Jacuzzi!

Technically, Sunglasses Guy’s death was a suicide…he died by his own hand.

The cover of Deadly Prey looks like a Sega Genesis game!

"I just cat a jaw from Asian. Don't bottle oz." - Y. K. Kim

The best lineup of movies they ever had on BTW

All 3 of these movies look absolutely incredible

I had the pleasure(?) of watching Miami Connection on VHS about a decade ago. Never thought it would end up on Blu-Ray and spawn it's own action figures.

Jay managed to shoot this episode on his Prom night

Miami Connection should have been a cartoon in the late 80's, a "for boys" version of Jem and the Holograms.

Fun fact - the black dude in Miami Connection is Maurice Smith, an MMA legend who went on to compete in some of the earlier UFC's and made a name for himself by winning against Mark Coleman. Couldn't believe that was him in this movie. Small world. I guess he has some other acting credits, too??? Shit's crazy.

Using a Bazooka on a dude point blank range and his blow up doll is the definition of overkill. I love it.

Seeing Jack with hair makes my brain melt

Did yall know that Hard Ticket to Hawaii is part of an extended universe and is actually a sequel and not a stand alone film. And yes there is a 3rd film to back up Hard Ticket to Hawaii.

This is the birth of so many legends it’s unreal.

Well, it WAS a blow-up doll.

That shot at 19:15 of how the guy is outrageously freaking out about a snake on a plane 20' away from him is totally me any time I see even a tiny snake anywhere near me. LOL. I have a totally unreasonable fear of snakes that I can't do anything about no matter how hard I try. It makes living in the woods in Florida kind of loaded with anxiety.

lol this is more of a "best of the best" episode. These are three of my favorite terrible 80s action movies and I bet a later Mike and Jay would've spread these out a bit. lmao

they should put out the full video of them watching each movie so I can watch it with them at home.

This must be before Cameron Mitchell became their god.

This might be the greatest Best of the Worst episode that we will ever see.

that Cameron Mitchell speech gets me fucking pumped up

So, Y.K. Kim has also published a book. It's... interesting. It's a martial arts instructional book but it also has some crazy messages in it that border on religious rhetoric. Everyone that appears in Miami Connection is featured in the book too. The pictures in the self defense section are especially choice.

I love that in spite of this being a super early episode, because of the fringe hair, Jack Packard looks so much older.

I guess Jack went Bald before he went CGP Grey

Friends forever is an amazing song.

I saw Hard Ticket to Hawaii as a young teen, I didn't remember the snake, I didn't remember the bewbs, but I remembered the hand stand skateboarder and his excessively hilarious death.

A legendary line-up for BotW and a classic episode.

Miami connection is my favorite movie of all time

I first heard of Hard Ticket to Hawaii on the site Ninjaculture, where one of the site's two writers declared it was his holy grail to find for their Crappah Moovah Fridah series. Never thought I'd come across it again.

I've watched every episode of BotW and I can honestly say this episode was the best these guys have done. An instant favorite, totally hilarious, and they got the four best guys to do to the discussion.

34:13 The most bizarre aspect of this 'tearful' scene is how the guy is dressed for what is supposed to be an impactful emotional moment - he's shirtless, has a towel draped on a shoulder, and his pants are undone. Why?!

"It's like 'Prometheus.' Just run to the side and you'll be safe!" Ooh, burn!

For the record, what the crowd chants during "Against the Ninja" is "tae kwon, tae kwon!' At the end of the song, they finally shout "tae kwon DO!"

god I love Rich's laugh so much

I just want to let you guys know that I go back to scenes with Rich Evans laughing and rewatch them again and again so I can hear his amazing laugh.

My brother in law is Y.K. Kim's right hand man. He spent every dime he had making this movie.

11:37 Cameron Mitchell's amazing monologue

Incase you were still curious about the gang chant in the "Against the Ninja" song, it's "Tae Kwon, Tae Kwon"

This was the best episode of Best of the Worst ever.

the whole sequence starting at 24:22 ending in the blowup doll exploding had me in tears

"My mother was Korean" I wonder how many times they had to redo that scene until they could do it without laughing.

This is one of my favorite RedLetterMedia Best of the Worst episodes, I've watched it like 4 times now...

"Only through the elimination of violence can we bring about world peace" I was on the floor for 8 minutes, laughing uncontrollably.

I love how Cameron Mitchell got top billing in Deadly Prey. Even they knew his brilliance.

I love that you can see the afternoon progress in the "screening room" shots

_First Blood_ isn't really "action shlock" as Jack suggests (although its sequels are). Rambo doesn't even kill anyone in the first movie. The film itself is a commentary on post-traumatic stress and the treatment of Vietnam veterans by American society.

Just found Miami connection soundtrack on Spotify and it's gloriously 80s

The answer to all questions regarding "Hard Ticket to Hawaii" is "Because giant bowls of Cocaine."

Wait, what? Jack had hair?

This is my favorite episode in the series. In many episodes every movie they watch is a flop. In some like Ryan’s Babe you get a a single quality movie. This one all three movies are epic!

8 years ago holy shit

A legendary episode and maybe the luckiest combination of movies to date on "Best of the Worst".

Ahhh! I love Rich's comment, "it's like mass effect 3" perfect!

Mass Effect 3 reference :) Just when I thought Rich Evans couldn't be any better :)

why is susan wearing her dad's tuxedo

That blow up doll scene killed me for 5 minutes.
