->''"But one who leaves his biggest, greasiest fingerprints all over this season is a man named Coleman Francis. Francis is such a shockingly bad filmmaker that it actually borders on being art. If it wasn't so obvious that he is completely obvious that he is completely incompetent in all aspects of filmmaking, you would think that he was one of the greatest geniuses of experimental films in history. [[NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer You probably think I'm joking here, but I'm not.]] What you have on display in his three films is someone who is challenging the ways of cinema in ways that some of the most visionary and inspired filmmakers would, except that, rather than this being because of a bold new conception of how to shoot or edit films, of imaginative storytelling techniques and groundbreaking concepts in terms of structure... Coleman Francis makes films this way because he's simply'' [[AchievementsInIgnorance too stupid to make them correctly!]]''"''

->''"Director Coleman Francis uses edits like blunt instruments. [[ShapedLikeItself He uses blunt instruments like blunt instruments.]] His major themes are death, [[TooBleakStoppedCaring hatefulness]], [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment death]], pain, and [[RuleOfThree death]]. He looks like [[Film/TheThreeStooges Curly Howard]] possessed by demons from Hell. He tried to pass off Lake Mead as the Caribbean Sea. His films have the moral compass of David Berkowitz. He hurts us and I want him to know it, except if he's still alive, because there's the small chance that he's still strong enough to crush my windpipe with his bare hands."''[[note]]Kevin has nothing to worry about, since Coleman Francis went to [[TheBigXInTheSky that big movie studio in the sky]] in 1973.[[/note]]

->''"Any discussion of ''Film/RedZoneCuba'' would be remiss without a mention of its writer, director, and star, Coleman Francis, who's also singlehandedly responsible for two other cinematic abominations, ''Film/TheBeastOfYuccaFlats'' and ''Film/TheSkydivers''. (...) Probability dictates that every now and then, a totally clueless director like [[Film/ManosTheHandsOfFate Hal Warren]] or [[http://www.agonybooth.com/recaps/Night_of_Horror_1981.aspx Tony]] [[http://www.agonybooth.com/recaps/The_Curse_of_the_Screaming_Dead_1982.aspx Malanowski]] might punch through and end up making one of the worst movies ever just by pure chance, but to make three of them clearly requires active hatred towards paying audiences''."
