My face when the scoundrel who operates a bed and breakfast with service so poor that it almost killed my best friend slathers my new wife’s horse in bacon grease knowing that my family castle is surrounded by wolves
A scowling and deflated white guy with extensive sideburns and dark brown hair gazes mournfully into the distance while leaning against a stone wall. He is wearing a dark blue jacket and floral print collared shirt that someone thought looked enough like a Regency era outfit to work.

A screenshot of text that reads: “"Dance Magic [its title later changed to Magic Dance] gave me a bit of a problem," the singer explained in a TV interview promoting the film. "It's a song for the Goblin King and the baby. In the recording studio the baby I picked - one of the backing singers, Diva [Gray], had this cute little baby, and couldn't put two gurgles together! And it wouldn't work for me. I mean it just wouldn't go; I kicked it, I did everything to make it scream, and it really buttoned its lip. So I ended up doing the gurgles, I'm the baby on that track as well."”

A screenshot of RottenTomatoes showing the ratings for Mortal Kombat (1995). The tomatometer shows a green splat of 44% and the popcorn meter shows a spilled bucket of 58%. The movie banner shows a still from the film of Robin Shou (Liu Kang) fighting in the tournament. The film description below the scores reads:

“Lord Rayden (Christopher Lambert) handpicks three martial artists -- federal agent Sonya Blade (Bridgette Wilson), Shaolin monk Lui Kang (Robin Shou) and action movie sensation Johnny Cage (Linden Ashby) -- and mentors them. After intense training, Rayden transports the trio to Outworld, the site of an inter-dimensional fighting tournament. There, the three humans must defeat the demonic warriors of the evil Shang Sung (Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa) -- or allow Sung to take over the Earth.”
