JRPGChris Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 From Ed Wood to Herschell Gordon Lewis to Lucio Fulci to Tommy Wissou, this thread is a celebration of movies that entertain precisely because of how horrible they are. I nominate Glenn Danzig’s Verotika as one of the greatest and most hilarious bad movies ever produced. Madonna’s Body of Evidence could have easily been marketed as a parody and it might have been better received if it did that. What are your favorite bad movies? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidnightDragon Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 This is what Hitchcock's The Birds would've been like if he only had like $100 to make it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jgm4789 Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 I personally love howard the duck, the first street fighter film, the old mario bros movie and the absolute masterpiece that is COOL CAT SAVES THE KIDS. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HoTZZYm2HZI 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MightyStewbacca Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 don't skip this one: Miami Connection Official Description: The year is 1987. Motorcycle ninjas tighten their grip on Florida's narcotics trade, viciously annihilating anyone who dares move in on their turf. Multi-national martial arts rock band Dragon Sound have had enough, and embark on a roundhouse wreck-wave of crime-crushing justice. When not chasing beach bunnies or performing their hit song "Against the Ninja," Mark (kung-fu master/inspirational speaker Y.K. Kim) and the boys are kicking and chopping at the drug world's smelliest underbelly. It'll take every ounce of their blood and courage, but Dragon Sound can't stop until they've completely destroyed the dealers, the drunk bikers, the kill-crazy ninjas, the middle-aged thugs, the "stupid cocaine"...and the entire MIAMI CONNECTION!!! My word of warning... there is an original song from this movie called "friends (forever)" and it will become your new favorite song. catchy as hell. Enjoy! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KennethMcCormick Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 Most of Jean-Pierre Mocky or John Waters’ films, or Rachel Talalay’s adaptation of Tank Girl (1995), a lot of them with incredible casts to boot. Or Quentin Dupieux’s Rubber (2010). But they’re ”bad” on purpose, though, so not sure if they qualify. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beyondthegrave07 Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 There's a lot of bad, cheesey 90s movies that are so bad they're great, but Meet the Flintstones (1994), might take the cake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention the iconic scene where he uses a Bat Credit Card which made the Nostalgia Critic lose his freaking mind.

the1andonly654 Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 The Room. The so bad that it's good done on pure accident, this is the queen and the king of the "genre". If it was that way on purpose - I'd call Tommy Wiseau a genius comparable to Tarantino. Literally every shot, scene, a piece of dialogue has something that is off, weird, unintentionally funny or just plain stupid but in the best possible way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlitzkriegHottie Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 (edited) Hard Ticket to Hawaii Inflatable-sex-doll-skateboarding-rocketlauncher-kills? We've got 'em! Silent Night Deadly Night 2 You don't need to watch OG, the whole first movie is reedited and summed up in excruciating detail in this movie, also, this is the legendary 'garbage daaaaay' movie. Zaat The blu-ray re-release is in widescreen format, so now you'll see the already shitty monster costume having it's feet replaced by white sneakers for the actor's commodity. It's mental. Death Wish 3 At this point every single person he loves/cares for has been raped and murdered (or both) so new characters are introduced just so they can suffer the same fate. Also, it has the best reaction gif ever. Low Blow Ahhhh good-old and recently deceased Leo Fong (RIP) and this über cheesy cop flick featuring an unexpected and unexpectedly bizarre head splat sequence. Miami Connection Leo Fong again, and featuring an end quote that'll stay with me forever: 'Only through the elimination of violence can we achieve world peace' after witnessing one of the most needlessly violent movies out there. Samurai Cop "He speaks fluent Japanese" followed by the most American pronunciation of Fujiyama: Fooyeeyamah) Last Vampire on Earth KFC = Fancy dinner, also aids and the titular vampire claims he 'heard one of Jesus' sermons back in the day' this is a Twilight knockoff btw, but everyone is so fucking ugly which is the only thing Twilight did right Suburban Sasquatch They could only afford one creature growl so be ready to hear it a million times. They couldn't afford a car camera mount neither so the driving sequences are filmed at the lowest possible speed so the cameraman can properly film as he walks. Also, most bizarre gore ever. Frankenhooker After accidentally killing his gf on her birthday with an out of control robotic lawnmower (!) and saving her mangled bodyparts (including her intact brain), our MC decides to kill one hooker (or a dozen) so he can make her a new body. So romantic! The Wicker Man (Remake) The legendary NOT THE BEEEEES movie is a shitty reimagining of the horror classic. These are some of my favorite bad movies. About to watch Vampire's Kiss one of these days, that one has potential.

PerryToxteth Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 From 1993, Airborne. California Kid moves to Midwest. Makes oddball friends, makes more enemies. Supporting roles by Seth Green and Jack Black. Some of the dialogue is just wretched. And yet, you can’t turn away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slava Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 (edited) Tekken (2009). The main source of entertainment is how poorly they portrayed every single character from the game. The world and the story are stupid too. Tekken players will have a laugh for sure. Just watch the trailer and see what you think. Resident Evil: Afterlife might be worth watching for this scene alone. Or you know what, just watch the video, and skip the movie. And that's probably it. I rarely watch bad movies, but twhen I do, they're bad and boring. I'll have to watch The Room and Samurai Cop some time in the future to cover the gaps and educate myself on these masterpieces.

TheBusToYoker Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 (edited) Rad Trashy 80s teen movie, but with BMX bikes. What more could you ask for? Lori Loughlin? Yes! Also on a BMX bike. The music is also fire. Edit: Just in case anyone asks if I own the VS 4K Blu-ray release. Aye, I do. I pre-ordered as soon as they annouced it. Freejack The king of shit Blade Runner clones. This 1992 dystopic 2009 future tense cat and mouse chase sci-fi is the utter bollocks in all the worst, and best ways possible. The trailer for it is actually very good, in large part due to Ministry's Golden Dawn playing over it. What you really want to watch this one for though is Mick Jagger's terrible acting. Take a look. It's wonderful. Robocop 3 Yeah I like Robcop 3, sue me. I'll always defend it on the basis it at least had the potential to be a true sequel to the original. It's got strong themes of urban gentrification, and some pretty bad ass scenes. I'll post more as this thread progresses or, regresses further, depending on your point of view.

Trancexistence Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 The Wicker Man remake from 2006. Entertainingly awful in the best possible way and it features what I believe is Nicolas Cage's most ridiculous performance, even by his standards.
