Former ’80s sensation Deborah Gibson has been publicly – and desperately – asking for work. But, now, the trailer for her new sci-fi flick, Mega-Shark vs. Giant Octopus, has become an internet sensation after we posted it!

The movie, which features Gibson and Lorenzo Lamas, hits the Cannes Film Festival this weekend and has already reached millions of hits online.

In fact, some people are even making pre-orders before the movie makes its direct-to-DVD release on May 19th

But even Gibson admits the movie sucks!

She says, “This movie isn’t going to put me on the acting map. But it was so ridiculously fun. There’s some absurd stuff going on, but I felt like my character had some good scenes. Besides, I got to be the badass girl who saved the planet. The director would be like, ‘okay, the shark just attacked the submarine from the left, so everyone jump to the right.’ So I’d do it and he’d tell me I looked like I was having a seizure.”

Somehow, we’d rather watch a movie with Kiki Drunkst in it.

But Debbie claims that she’s not embarrassed by the film, stating, “If you realize that it’s a fun science fiction movie, you’ll get it. It’s not a film where you ask a bunch of questions; you just enjoy it for what it is.”

Oh, and there might even be a sequel. Or so she’s hoping for. She jokes that “We leave the door open for a sequel. How about a giant lobster? That would be terrifying. They’re really scary.”
