The worst movie ever made, The Day of the Dolphin, was about dolphins trained to carry bombs on their backs which would then attach to the presidential yacht and blow the Big Guy up. These were nice, lovable dolphins who could talk, by the way, though they certainly made a mistake by spending all their time talking to George C. Scott — that is, unless they wanted to order a highball or maybe a Sloe Gin Fizz. That movie came out in 1974 and no one who ever saw it is likely to have forgotten it in all its unimaginable awfulness. That’s why this story about terrorism-fighting dolphins can only elicit a horrified guffaw from us Day of the Dolphin survivors. For the record, the inimitable exchange in the film went like this:

Dolphin: Fa love Pa!

George C. Scott: Pa loves you too, Fa.
