Missile X: The Neutron Bomb Incident - 1979

 Also known as The Tehran Incident.

Well which incident was it?  Make up your mind already.  I am still having a hard time finding these things with clunky named and I might give up, but not before I review this Peter Graves movie with like, eh a mild 3/10 on the clunk-ometer.

Peter Graves is sent to Tehran because some madman there has a missile.  That's where we begin, and it's pretty simple as he gets linked up against the bad guy from 007's The Spy Who Loved Me.  John Carradine is in there, and its about as complicated as the alternate name here, The Tehran Incident.  In other words, straight forward you get it level.

Felt like a made for TV movie, and virtually nothing to say about it.  If you like background level sorta "stuff to put on" you might do this one on a blah Monday.  2 stars.

I think I have a few more in me here, but I'm going to drop in some random movies I've done that are on the Clunky Names meter, and a /10 rating of their clunky ass unwieldy name:

Halloween H20: Twenty Years Later 6/10
Quantum of Solace 5/10
I'll Kill You...I'll Bury You...I'll Spit on Your Grave Too! 10/10
The Serpent and the Rainbow 4/10
π - 10/10
Second Sight: A Love Story 3/10
F. Scott Fitzgerald and 'The Last of the Belles' 4/10
Click:  The Calendar Girl Killer 3/10
Prototype X29A 4/10
Spirits of the Air, Gremlins of the Clouds 8/10
Jesse James Meets Frankenstein's Daughter 8/10
Rana: The Legend of Shadow Lake 3/10
Stuff Stephanie in the Incinerator 5/10
The Brain from Planet Arous 2/10

Faust - 1926

 So I finished some bullshit on youtube recently and in its bizarre algorithm it suggested Faust to me.  Okay, why not? Faust is a great exa...
