The Black Hole - because of fond childhood memories and the music is great even though the acting, script, effects and realism are at a subterranean level.
Spike and Mike's Sick and Twisted Festival of Animation - A collection of offbeat and well sick and twisted animated shorts is safely placed in another room from my collection, but it still gets plenty of spin time.
OK, I think I've got one nobody else has mentioned...
Wild Orchid :b
Yeah, I know...Oscar material it ain't, but I find the underlying theme and symbolism in the movie fascinating. Not exactly a movie that I advertise as having in my collection.
As for future guilty pleasures, I have every intention of adding Flashdance to my collection when it's released.
These are some of my guilty pleasures or movies I find myself embarrassed to own in front of others:
Killer Klowns From Outer Space Superman 3 Urban Legends: Final Cut Hobbit, The 151 NeverEnding Story, The Winnie the Pooh Sleepless In Seattle: Special Edition Peter Pan Hunchback of Notre Dame, The
The Transformers: The Movie and The Transformers: Season 1
The only reason I own these is because of childhood nostalgia. Trying to explain to anyone why I bought them is pointless; they just look at you like you've grown a second head. So I don't bother explaining it; I just watch them and flash back to being nine years old again.
Thumb Wars: This is the only DVD I own that I require the viewing time to be after 2:00a.m. That is about how late it takes before a bad movie becomes a hilarious classic.
I would have several of those.... up top of the list would be a small collection of Troma movies...
Class Of Nuke 'Em High Redneck Zombies Toxic Avenger Toxic Avenger 2 Bloodsucking Freaks (the worst of all!) Girl School Screamers Rabid Grannies Tromeo & Juliet
Hows that for guilty pleasures.... if you could even call them thats! :-p
I get accused of being a "film snob," frequently,
since I would rather watch a Hitchcock film over,
say, something more current, and raise my nose
to things like Men in Black.
My usual response is,
"Oh yeah, well, I own Xanadu...not 'rent'...'own.'..
yep: the cheesiest film of all time!"
