May’s new Netflix offerings include one of last year’s more surprising hits, some more offbeat films and a film that’s likely to only appeal to Moms and soon to be Moms. The catalog titles are more diverse including John Woo’s take on an impossible mission, a Japanese Star Wars rip-off, a World War I horror film, two extremely odd musicals, Rodney Dangerfield coaching soccer, Katie Holmes escaping a cult, killer bee women, socially relevant break-dancing and much more. May isn’t a standout month for Netflix but it’s definitely a fun month.

Mix The Breakfast Club with House on a Haunted Hill. Add a dash of Poltergeist. Top it off with a layer of I Know What You Did Last Summer. Sounds like a tasty dish, no? Admittedly, it sounds like enough to be fun to me. And apparently co-creators Matthew Spradlin and Barry Wernick felt as such, too. The problem here is that Spradlin and Wernick allow this dish to become overcooked, paying too much attention to the festivities and allowing the main course itself to become a bit stale.
ShockYa (SY): You play Headmaster Nash, who gives six students, the spoiled offspring of society’s elite, from his prep school Crestview Academy Saturday detention, in ‘Bad Kids Go to Hell.’ What was it about the character and the script overall that convinced you to take on the role?
Judd Nelson (JN): Well, I read the graphic novel, and I thought it was a lot of fun. I thought, it doesn’t take itself too seriously. These are horrible kids, and they get the justice they deserve. It seemed like a fun thing to be a part of, and it was.
