Debbie Gibson (Yes That One) And Lorenzo Lamas Starring in the Biggest Summer Movie! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Well, not exactly, it may not beat out the likes of Wolverine or Star Trek, but Deborah "Don't Call Me Debbie" Gibson has one of the most searched movies on the internet.

Giant prehistoric sea creatures destroying the California coast? And Deborah Gibson (yes, that Deborah Gibson) is the only one who can save the world? Be afraid. Be very afraid. "Mega Shark vs Giant Octopus" may never come to a theater near you, but the trailer is everywhere since its debut on MTV.com this week.

The schlocky sci-fi thriller destined for the discount bin (it's direct to DVD) has already been viewed over 250,000 times on YouTube. As the video spread on the Web, searches on the monster movie surged. Lookups on "sea monsters," "mega shark vs giant octopus," and "deborah gibson" all heated up the Search box.
While the creature feature will not be promoted at Cannes, film buffs everywhere can appreciate the combination of questionable production values, mega monsters of the deep in mortal combat, imminent danger to humankind (or at least California), and an '80s pop sensation as a star.

That was "Skating With Celebrities," which bombed after one season on FOX (it lasted from Jan-Mar 2006). Debbie Gibson finished in fifth place. Also, for those who care, the other celebrities were Todd Bridges (last place), Dave Coulier (fourth place), Bruce Jenner (third place), Jillian Barberie (second place), & Kristy Swanson (the winner). It was hosted by Scott Hamilton & Summer Sanders.

I want to see how Debbie is as an actress so I will probably check this movie out.

This thing looks like a student film.

I understand it's low-budget... but come on this just looks awful.
