That alone doesn't make it a good expenditure of one's time, but it's nice to see a campy little schlock-fest that at least respects the movies it's stealing from.... For what it is, which is a downright ridiculous take on the super-hero schpiel, Black Scorpion is actually pretty entertaining.
It may not be a wise investment of one's time, but it's enjoyable to watch a cheesy little exploitation film that even pays homage to its sources.... In essence, a ridiculous portrayal of the superhero genre, Black Scorpion remains surprisingly engaging.
