I saw the original Mortal Kombat film in theaters about 100 years ago, give or take, and it was bad but also really good. It was the '90s and I was going through kind of a Christopher Lambert phase (if you ever have the chance to see The Hunted, I highly recommend it), and it's also possible that I may have been mildly hammered.
