On an archeological expedition to the planet P3X 888, Jackson (Michael Shanks) discovers an ancient, primordial Goa'uld symbiote. But before he can return to the complex with this artifact, Jackson is captured by a Unas (Dion Johnstone), a huge, primitive creature. The SG-1 team would like to rescue Jackson, but their efforts are stymied by an unexpected threat. (The name of Jackson's Unas captor will undoubtedly bring a smile to the lips of anyone familiar with the 1970s Saturday-morning adventure series Land of the Lost). ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

The SG-1 team heads to Cimmerica, in hopes of enlisting the aid of the legendary Norse Gods in their battle against the Goa'ulds. Because team member Teal'c (Chrsitopher Judge), like all Jaffa men, carries a larval Goa'uld within him, he is prohibited from entering Cimmerica and trapped in a beam of light. When O'Neill (Richard Dean Anderson) attempts to release Teal'c, both men are whisked underground to the labyrinthine home of Unas (Vincent Hammond), the original Goa'uld host body. Unas' subterranean prison has been designed to protect his civilization from the Goa'ulds, and as such is all but inescapable. SG-1 team members Jackson (Michael Shanks) and Carter (Amanda Tapping) must rely upon another former Goa'uld host named Kendra (Galyn Gorg) to save their comrades. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

The manic writing-directing comedy team of Tom Stern and Alex Winter (the latter of Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure and Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey) followed up their deranged short-film collaborations and the short-lived MTV series The Idiot Box with this comic fantasy, which amounts to a virtual car crash of anarchic, mind-blowing weirdness. The brain-damaged plot follows self-centered sitcom actor Ricky Coogin (Winter), official spokesman for the E.E.S. (Everything Except Shoes) corporation, into the jungle-bound South American nation of Santa Flan. Coogin has been sent as an emissary on behalf of E.E.S. to placate the media uproar over a substance called Zygrot-27, a chief ingredient in many E.E.S. products which has been decried as a fatal environmental toxin. Accompanied by his friend Ernie (Michael Stoyanov) and environmental activist Julie (Megan Ward), Ricky takes a detour into the jungle to a bizarre amusement park overseen by bombastic barker/inventor Elijah C. Skuggs (Randy Quaid), who specializes in the display of "Hideous Mutant Freekz" (the film's original title). The trio soon discover that Skuggs manufactures his oddities himself, and they find themselves at the mercy of his hideous freakmaking factory -- which coincidentally uses Zygrot-27 as a catalyst. Once he has the hapless heroes strapped down, Skuggs reveals his intention to transform Coogin into an evil mega-freak who will destroy all the others in a slam-bang, standing-room-only closing event. Miffed at the notion of sustaining an acting career as a spine-covered, pus-gushing monster, Coogin joins a rebellion within Skuggs' captive stable of other man-made freaks -- whose ranks include such monstrosities as effete human worm; a bearded lady (Mr. T in a frilly dress); a man with a sock-puppet for a head (voiced by Bob Goldthwait); and Ortiz the Dog-Boy (an uncredited Keanu Reeves). Their plans to turn Ricky into a zygrot-powered superhero go astray, however, leading to a hilariously apocalyptic finale. Doomed to home-video status by lethargic distribution from Twentieth-Century Fox, this unappreciated gem deserves a second look; packed with hilarious visual gags, ultra-gross setpieces and body-function jokes, Freaked is a hallucinogenic funhouse of a movie. ~ Cavett Binion, Rovi

A vehicle for popular wrestling celebrity Hulk Hogan, Suburban Commando is an inoffensive science-fiction fantasy. Hogan plays Shep Ramsey, a well-sculpted if somewhat dimwitted intergalactic hero. On vacation from fighting crime on other planets, he has a fight with an alien enemy and his spaceship is damaged. He seeks refuge on Earth until his ship can be revived. Trying to look inconspicuous as an ordinary human being without special powers, he is befriended by a suburban family headed by Charlie Wilcox (Christopher Lloyd) and his wife Jenny (Shelley Duvall). Ramsey's stay isn't peaceful because he has such a keen sense of justice, which he dishes out to muggers, reckless drivers, and even smart-aleck paper carriers. In the end, he has to defend the family against his bold nemesis. ~ Michael Betzold, Rovi
