The year is 1998 and comic book movies were...pretty much extinct following the utter crap that was 'Batman and Robin.' And there weren't ten superhero shows on TV ('Lois and Clark' just ended.) But that didn't stop the executives of FOX from trying to get in the game early before X-Men. They decided to make a TV movie about Nick Fury, the grizzled, angry cyclops who works with S.H.I.E.L.D. The actor chosen to play this great character? David 'Hamburger' Hasslehoff.

The story follows S.H.I.E.L.D. re-activating a reclusive Fury to active duty to hunt down and defeat HYDRA, the evil organization that apparently can hide better than Waldo.

Hasslehoff's acting chops are put to the test as he straps-on the eye patch and leather jacket of Nick Fury, before Samuel L. Jackson got a chance to make the role cool.

It stars a bunch of other people who probably did things but most likely left the acting business after doing this crap fest. It was written by David Goyer, the guy who does EVERYTHING with DC movies. He also directed Blade: Trinity (explains a lot, doesn't it?)

So please Rifftrax, make this movie worth watching.
