'''''Best of the Worst: Donald Farmer's Market''''' is the 133rd episode of ''[[Best of the Worst]]''.

Tim is surprised to find that Jay has set up a simulated farmer's market themed around Donald Farmer, most known for [[Jack-O, Rock n' Roll Nightmare, and Shark Exorcist|Shark Exorcist]].

Jay lays out the gimmick: Rather than watching all films front to back, the panelists will only continue watching the film if they are interested enough in it after the 10 minute mark. However, if a panelist opts into watching the film, they must watch the ''entire'' film, and it will be their candidate for Best of the Worst. Rather than voting, Jay will select the winner because he is "an expert pervert."

== Films Watched ==

The films are ordered by IMDB review scores, starting at the most highly rated.

* ''Demolition Highway''
* ''Scream Dream''
* ''Cannibal Hookers''
* ''Hooker with a Hacksaw''
* ''Vampire Cop''
* ''Compelling Evidence''
* ''Debbie Does Demons''

These two films were named, but were not screened, although clips of them appear during the montages at the beginning of the episode.

* ''Cannibal Cop''
* ''Vicious Kiss''

== Films Selected ==

* Jack Packard: ''Scream Dream''
* Tim Higgins: ''Vampire Cop''
* Mike Stoklasa: ''Debbie Does Demons''

== Judging ==

Jay judged ''Vampire Cop'' as the winner.

Mike claimed that, had there been no "Theatrical cut", ''Vampire Cop'' would have been "a healthy contender for being the worst movie [they've] seen."

The other films were [[Best of the Worst (Award)#List of Losers|slated for destruction]]. Mike exorcised the films via [[Wikipedia:smudging|smudging]]... and then promptly threw them in the trash.

== Description ==

<blockquote>Just a reminder that we have a Patreon: https://patreon.com/redlettermedia

It's that time again! The time where we punish ourselves for no real reason and no real gain. Donald Farmer is one of our most hated filmmakers and his movies make us physically ill, so it only made sense to watch as many of them as possible in one sitting. What is our final conclusion on his filmography as a whole? The answers may shock you! Actually they won't. 

We sampled many Farmer films in this viewing but the main ones that are discussed are Scream Dream (1989), Vampire Cop (1990) and Debbie Does Demons (2023).</blockquote>

== Themes ==

Mike calls ''Vampire Cop'' a contender for [[the worst thing Mike's seen|the worst film they've ever seen]].

== Previously On ==

Donald Farmer's other two films, [[Halloween Spooktacular 2021|Dorm of the Dead]] and [[Jack-O, Rock n' Roll Nightmare, and Shark Exorcist|Shark Exorcist]], were previously seen on ''Best of the Worst''.

Jay recognizes the mother from ''Cannibal Hookers'', whose actress was previously seen on [[Vampire Assassin, Hack-O-Lantern, and Cathy's Curse]].
