Scorcher (rapper), a grime artist from London, who has collaborated with. Scorcher (magazine), a football-themed British comic magazine. Scorcher (comics), the name of a Marvel Comics supervillain.
Scorcher, a fictional movie franchise referenced in the 2008 movie Tropic Thunder. In fact, the special effects are a little too good, believe it or not, to pass for a strict B-movie. Scorcher, a record label run by Jamaican deejay Errol Scorcher. It's almost bad enough to merit watching simply for kitsch value (did I mention President Rutger Hauer?), but not quite. Whether it's a soldier hoisting a nuclear warhead with his bare hands or all eyes on that count-up meter as the hole approaches 44 cm, Scorcher is a real howler through and through. Sounds like an improvement to me, but whatever, after quietly evacuating the tens of millions of people who live there, a wrench involving our military co-hero ( Mark Dacascos) and a kidnapped daughter gets thrown at us, not to mention crossed signals between the military dudes tasked with getting the nukes set just so. In the case of Scorcher, it means detonating the nuke in central Los Angeles. Naturally, that involves setting off a nuclear bomb somewhere. The trouble comes on the wedding night when. Bayou La Teche, Louisiana sizzles as the Cajun town celebrates the wedding of Splendid and Dolan. And so our hero geologists (including John Rhys-Davies, whoa nelly!), under the direction of President Rutger Hauer(!!!), are tasked with finding a solution. R 1 hr 28 min Jul 7th, 1991 Drama, Romance, Comedy. As with Core, our meddling has caused some kind of tectonic trouble, and if the gap between two plates opens wider than 44 centimeters (yeah, whatever), then we will literally have "hell on earth" as earthquakes and volcanoes sprout up all over the planet. Say what you will about using lame source material, Scorcher is laughably bad in its own right. Ripped from today's theater screens comes the latest direct-to-DVD knockoff, Scorcher, a tepid reworking of The Core.
