Favorite "BAD" movie

[King of the Sandbox]

Mystery Men, though it's probably up for debate as to whether that's a 'bad' movie at all.

If not, hmm...I'll have to think about it.

If Mystery Men is a 'bad' movie, this world is no longer worth saving.

Also, anything by Trauma Films.

I've seen that movie! Killer Clowns From Outer Space. For me, favorite bad movie had to be Monkeybone, dear lord was that horrible...

I don't really watch too many bad movies, and when I accidentally do, they aren't "so bad it's funny" just "borderline shit".

zorro the gay blade gets the nod as the best bad movie ever. the humor in that is sooo.... i don't know. if you've seen it, you'd know what i'm talking about, but i hardly ever run into people that have watched it. people stop making eye contact and slowly edge out of the room when you suggest they watch a movie with "gay" in the title.

Ben Afflick is the bomb in Phantoms

And sometimes, you do Reindeer Games.

I love that freaking movie. It's awful in so many ways, but the little things make it wonderful.

Phantoms like a mu-fucker, yo!

Mega Shark vs Giant Octopus
It is really really awful, but absolutely hilarious and awesome

This. This, this, this and 10x this.

No question.

Alot of people are just listing good movies here. I mean Braindead, Army of Darkness, Flash Gordon? Those are not bad films.

 

[Starke]

Van Helsing. Vampires, Werewolves, Frankenstein's monster and Jekyll/Hyde, what more do you need.

Van Helsing is a singularly stupid fun movie, just like everything else from Steven Sommers. I'll gleefully throw GI Joe on the pile with it, as horribly bad films that I love.

Kung Pow, i watched it when i was 12 and oh god it made me laugh so hard

 

[Buffoon]

Hmm, yeah, I'm gonna agree with the guy that nominated Arnold Schwarzenegger for his own category. I actually really liked Last Action Hero, it was a pretty good satire of action movies.

Apart from that, I'm gonna say... 300. It has a lot going against it, but I enjoyed it.

Oh man, how could I forget- Stealth. It's sooo shit in so many ways and yet so many bits of it are properly enjoyable. Like how the 'rogue AI' is the only likeable character apart from Captain Korea (our nickname for the nameless Burly Korean Soldier who disappointingly fails to kill the seemingly invulnerable female lead/love interest), or how the AI didn't actually *need* to get struck by lightning to go renegade because the human pilots and the male lead in particular acted like childish primadonnas who treated their orders like suggestion box entries written in crayon and it was told to follow their lead.

The gloriously over-the-top capabilities of the AI plane (fingerprint scans from 3000 miles away- I don't know where to begin), hilarious undercurrent of Cold War commie-hatred and surprisingly pixel-perfect effects shots (the dam collapse demonstrates model work of a skill level rarely seen outside Japan) just somehow bring you back in any time the detestable characters or ludicrous plot threaten to force you out.

Fist of the North Star [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6AYaFL6SWmk]

W-what did I just watch? o_o

... Should I be mesmerized or terrified?

Fist of the North Star? Well played, Twewer. Well played.

Enjoy.

]Kung-Pow: Enter The Fist.

It was just so...awesome. I love it. I don't think I could even call it bad, it's one of my favorite movies.

So glad someone actually posted this. It is the only film I own in the IMDB all-time lowest scores list.

And the only film I'm certain I've watched more than 10 times, pipping The Matrix and Ocean's Eleven to being my most watched film.

It's fair to say that I like a lot of films which are dimly viewed in the eyes of the critics, but people here will probably love them.

I've said it before, I'll say it again:
Conan the Barbarian / Destroyer.
Hardest I've ever laughed in my life (with friends around mind you I think watching it on your own would be a sad event)

Reading this thread makes me wonder: exactly what qualifies as a 'bad' movie before it can become a 'good-bad' movie?

What I mean is, we like movies that we also think are terrible. But what we really think is that they're good flicks that everyone else hates. But if this isn't the case; if everyone likes the film, what makes it 'terrible'?

Take the crowned king of 'so bad it's good' movies, Plan 9 From Outer Space. What makes it bad before it can be a bad-good movie?

Bad Boys 1/2
Dude, Where's My Car?
National Security
Rat Race..? It's not bad.. It's just not remembered as it rightfully should be.
