I have spoken too soon about the lack of Super President footage at my disposal. Today I received an annual package of DVDs from my friend (and ex-professor who got me into writing in the first place) Mr. John Dodd. John is legend in my circle of friends, because he has a massive collection of hard to find movies that will either make you vomit, or choke from laughing up your own vomit. Look for more Super President footage soon, as well as Rocket Robin Hood and more…it doesn’t disappoint. Because I’m using clips legally for review purposes, no lawyers should be able to take them down. In theory.

This “John Dodd” you speak of sounds like he could be my greatest ally … or the Moriarty to my Sherlock Holmes.

A few years back, Entertainment Weekly did a cheesball article on “The Lost Movies That You Will NEVER Get to See!”… At the time, John owned a copy, in one format or another, of at least half of the “lost” films on the list. He probably has about all of them by now. That pretty much says it all for his obssessive devotion to cinema.
He’s also a real gentleman and insanely generous. You never get a tie or a fruit cake from John at Christmas: The man always tracks down some incredible import DVD box set or some demented, supressed, and/or forgotten unaired TV pilot, terrorist propaganda film, grindhouse oddity, brain-toasting trailer collection (lovingly edited by Dodd himself), or Hollywood skeleton-in-the-closet… and no matter how “Hip” or jaded you think you are, half the time it will be something that you have NEVER HEARD OF.

You hit in on the head Rich. Without giving too much away, I now have in my possession something involving a Super Jesus, something called “Metal Fingers in my Body,” and the Flintstones drinking Busch beer. Also, I don’t know where I’d be without the films of Andy Milligan.

Ward, you’ve gotta introduce me to this guy!
And “Metal Fingers in My Body” is apparently a classic robot porn.

Metal Fingers in my Body is pretty damn incredible. But…I’m not sure it qualifies as a bad cartoon. It’s pretty hilarious to see some lady banging this clunky robot.

You know what bugs me?
If you’re super AND the President, you should have a cape. There’s no excuse not to. In fact, the juncture of your careers DEMANDS it.
Also, a yellow and red costume? That’s what I expect from President RED DAWN. Though Super-Prez does look a little like Drago.
