Slam Evil!

Slam Evil!

That was probably one of the worst marketing phrases ever created for a movie. While listening to the Mighty Sabo podcast, they mentioned the expression on the show. I remember flipping through comic books and seeing the ads for the Phantom.

Slam Evil? Instead of slamming “Evil”, how about you destroy evil or knock out “evil”.

You know a movie is in bad shame when those two words are the center of their marketing campaign.

Heck, I can remember watching the behind the scenes show on HBO and being interested in seeing it. Billy Zane was f’ing terrible in the movie, and I found myself getting bored with the movie. It is one of the worst superhero movies every.

But Slam Evil? What were they thinking?
