The Berry
For many months now, we have utilized a scientific method of grading our bad movies known only as the Hamlin Scale. Named after the brilliant Harry Hamlin, The Hamlin Scale is a simple 1 to 10 grading system. A Hamlin grade of 1, would be a truly shitty film. A Hamlin grade of 10, well, also would be a truly shitty film, but one of unmatched calibre.
But what do we do when a picture is not deserving of the brand of Hamlin? Giving 0 Hamlins, doesn't seem to do the picture in question true justice. That is why today we introduce The Berry.
The Berry, is named after the personification of bad acting, Halle Berry. Yes she won an Oscar for her portrayal of something in some movie, but when was the last time anyone can remember the Academy having credibility? Certainly not after that award. Calling Halle Berry best actress is like saying O.J. Simpson, and Robert Blake are innocent.
So when you read a review on Bad Movie Knights, and under the Hamlin score you see this:
Hamlin Grade:
![]()
You know that this film has been Berry'd. Any film receiving this mark should be viewed with extreme caution. Remember, we are trained professionals here, and many of the movies you read about on Bad Movie Knights should not be watched at home.

So let's see if I understand this term correctly. For Example,"the Miami Dolphins season has been Barry'd." I know that this is not in movie context but would this be a proper use of the term?

So I take it from your response that I used the term correctly, aside from the spelling of course.
