What are your favorite bad movies? (1 Viewer)

[Paul_Sjordal]

We have the "Bad movies you hate" thread already.

So what about bad movies you like?

For me the list would have to include (in no particular order)

• Attack of the Killer Tomatoes
• Strange Brew
• Repo Man

Blair Witch Project 2
- Okay it didn't really make much sense and it was a mess but it was fun.

Super Mario Bros.
- It had nothing to do with the video game but hearing Mario go "I'm going to break every bone in his body!" always makes me laugh.

Street Fighter
- This is such a fun movie! I dunno why everybody hates it.

Motel Hell
- I don't consider this a bad movie, but a lot of people think so. I like it! "I used... Perservatives!"

Freddy Got Fingered
- Am I the only one who sees the genius behind this movie?

Gone Fishing
- I guess the only reason I like this one is because my dad was a fisherman so I remember him watching this movie and just laughing away... Aw, memories.

Nothing but Trouble
- All the scenes with Dan Aykroyd are worth the price of admission in my book.

There are a lot more "bad movies" that I enjoy.. 13 Ghosts, Feardotcom, Very Bad Things, Planet of the Apes (Tim Burton Remake), Fritz the Cat, 8 Heads in a Duffel Bag, Monkeybone, Set it Off, Swordfish...

 

[Patrick McCart]

Super Mario Bros. is a guilty pleasure... excellent production values and actually a decent movie.

I could watch Manos: The Hands of Fate countless times... although, probably better without the MST3K riffing.

How is Repo Man a "bad movie"??

 

[Dan Rudolph]

Is Road House a bad movie? If so, it makes my list. Also the classic Glen or Glenda?

 

[Paul_Sjordal]

How is Repo Man a "bad movie"??

Uhm, it's a grade B sci-fi flick and it doesn't pretend to be anything else. Don't get me wrong, I love that movie but Citizen Kane it ain't.

 

[Andy Sheets]

Uhm, it's a grade B sci-fi flick and it doesn't pretend to be anything else. Don't get me wrong, I love that movie but Citizen Kane it ain't.

And yet I can't remember the last time I saw any critic give Repo Man less than a good review. "Critically acclaimed" and "bad movie" just don't go together IMO

 

[Kevin Porter]

This has taken a lot of courage but I think I'm ready to admit that I like

Pulp Fiction
Casablanca
Lord of the Rings
Citizen Kane

And the list goes on...

 

[Steve Christou]

How about someone starting a thread titled -
Favorite movies regarded as bad by others, but not by me!
It's a mouthful and so is that title, foggedit.

But going by that I'd pick David Lynch's Dune (1984), my favorite good/bad film ever.
I think it's good, everyone else thinks it's bad.

Back to the thread subject...

Howard the Duck (the master of quack-fu)
Hudson Hawk
Robocop 2
Highlander II (so awful it's good)
Lifeforce ("don't worry, a naked girl isn't getting out of this building!")
Flesh Gordon ("Oh no! It's a penisaurus")
Judge Dredd

Armageddon
Billy Madison
The Blob (remake)
Chill Factor
Cliffhanger
Con Air
Coyote Ugly
Enemy of the State
Fraternity Vacation
Gone in 60 Seconds
Halloween 3
Happy Gilmore
Hard Target
Knockaround Guys
Lock Up
Night of the Creeps
One Crazy Summer
The Rock
Speed 2
Summer School
Untamed Heart
Up the Creek

 

[VinceCar]

Enemy Of The State was nowhere near bad, Smiths best movie.

 

[Seth--L]

Eh, it's a just The Conversation and North By Northwest squeezed together with more action minus the genius.

 

[CraigK]

ROCKETMAN...dumb beyond belief...but also as funny as hell!!

 

[Nick Senger]

Hysterical, starring the Hudson Brothers.

 

[Galen_V]

Plan 9 From Outer Space

 

[David C Lin]

I have enjoyed watching the movie, Dirty Dancing. People told me that I must be gay for liking that movie.

 

[Sean Campbell]

Despite the fact that it looks like crap compared with the original, I've always had a fondness for the 1976 version of King Kong.
I also have a liking for Gorgo, Orca the Killer Whale & The Land that Time Forgot
I'd mention the Godzilla movies too, but when seen subtitled and OAR they're not bad anymore

 

[Julian Lalor]

Showgirls, of course. Any film where there is a discussion about the joys of eating dog food has to have something going for it.

 

[Chad]

A few that come to mind:

Killer Klowns From Outer Space
Death Race 2000
Barbarian Queen
The Blob (1988)
Speed 2: Cruise Control
Jack Frost
Attack of the Killer Tomatoes
Tomb Raider
Deathstalker
