The big budget 3D film Captain America: The First Avenger was one of the summer’s huge movies. Few remember, however, the 1992 direct-to-video release of Captain America, starring Matthew Salinger and Ronny Cox. Now, Fox has released a new DVD of that ’92 film for a new generation to enjoy… or make fun of… take your pick. So until Captain America: The First Avenger hits DVD in a couple months, you can enjoy this film with a drink in hand. It’s either that or a drinking game for The Vampire Diaries or Desperate Housewives this week. Trust me… this film will be more fun.

Welcome back to Junkfood Cinema; the home of the brave. Here at JFC, we are one nation united under our love for schlock. Every week we salute the standard-bearers of terrible films. First we savagely thrash at the film’s faults; clawing at it like a bald eagle startled into rage by a thunderous fireworks display. But then, once we’ve knocked the stars and stripes out of it, we dust it off and slowly raise it back up with our unabashed adoration like Old Glory at Iwojima. We sing its praises like we’re Toby Keith in September and prove that yes we can…unironically appreciate crappy films. To punctuate this, our other national pastime, we will pair the film with a patriotically delicious junkfood item to storm the beaches of your intestinal fortitude much in the same fashion that the film declares war on your brain cells. This week’s treat: Captain America.
