My read was always that Escape From New York was a parody, but John Carpenter thought it was too subtle, so he fixed that for the sequel.FoolKiller said:
Oh you should have seen it when Adult Swim aired it. You know all those completely gratuitous and idiotic sex scenes? They decided they needed to be censored. Only, instead of you know...cutting them out or something....they decided the best course of action was to use big black censor bars. And by that, I don't mean these. I mean THISArtina89 said:
I swear, at times the only part of the screen that wasn't censored was the upper left corner, maybe a few centimeters wide. Which was absolutely hilarious once I realized that my television wasn't on the fritz.
My GOD THIS IS PERFECT! I was just going to make a thread about the same thing!
Me and my friends used to watch a fair few. The absolute best was easily mega piranha. The trailer pretty much sums it up.If you're not laughing out loud at this trailer, You will never laugh
a close second was crocosaurus

I have seen The Room fourteen times, introduced many of my friends into its warm, loving arms, have developed complex theories about the symbolism behind its idiocy, and can quote every single line.Private Custard said:

Cherry 2000 - a dude in one of those silly 80s version of the future (where anything that isn't LA is a wasteland - lol they got THAT in reverse), and a dude comes home to a beautiful wife who has made him dinner. Hey presto, can't help himself, they start going for it on the floor. But oh noes! She gets wet! Fzzzzt. She was Cherry 2000, a companion cube with functional inny-outty bits. One of the rarest, most advanced models too. All the spare parts are gone - but, if he can survive the wasteland and reach the original factory she was made in, he can get a NEW one! Yippeee!
Along the way he is helped by a tracker (none other than the foxy foxy Melanie Griffith) who we all know is more worth his time than the damned robot anyhoo.
Terribly AWESOME is what it is.
Imagine Fallout New Vegas, but the war happened in the 1980s, not the 1950s.

Good points about the movie:thebobmaster said:
John Malkovich got a paycheck.
John Cusack got a paycheck.
The guy who plays Machete got a paycheck.
Technical accuracies about Con Air:
Bullets go through the air at high velocity.
You and my wife.blink said:
I'm probably the only man on the planet whose wife loves SyFy movie originals to the point where for Christmas and her birthday, I can make her ecstatic by buying her the movies on DVD. I'll get odd looks when I go for the Blu-Ray, though.
Figures the room would take the prize! It's beyond parody on every level.Private Custard said:
For something different, I'm gonna go with Uwe Boll. He's the director that buys up the film rights to video games and challenges critics to boxing matches if they pan his films.
He's made such wonders as:
Alone in the Dark [http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/alone_in_the_dark/]
Far Cry, the Movie [http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/1219216-far_cry/]
Postal [http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/postal/]
Bloodrayne [http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/bloodrayne_the_third_reich/]
House of the Dead [http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/1126175-house_of_the_dead/] - This one is actually the worst IMO
Most of his films are so bad Rotten Tomatoes refuse to give them a % rating. He routinely gets worse than 0%

Also, for stuff that makes no fucking sense, I present to you:
Jaws 4, featuring a roaring exploding shark!
To steer a bit away from the bottom-barrel-budgets and the well-known classics of awfulness, my vote goes to the Sequel to xXx (Triple X) named xXx² (xXxxXx?) outside of the US and Canada, wich uses the much less inspiring title xXx: State of the Union
It's a hilariously stupid Hollywood B-Movie with awful effects and a stupid plot, but what differentiates it from other stupid B-Movies with awful effects and a stupid plot is it's shameless pandering and most of all, Ice Cube. See, not only does Ice Cube fail at acting here, the constant ATTITUDE ('tude) of his character and the excessive need of the movie to point out how much more "dangerous" and "badass" he is as opposed to Vin Diesel (the protagonist of the first movie) makes him look less like a "badass" and more of a "grumpy kid who needs to go to bed but does not want to"
I laughed a lot

I forget, is ED Wood the guy who made Plan 9 From Outer Space? Because that film is amazing in how goddamn terrible it isan annoyed writer said:
And of course The Room and pretty much anything made by The Asylum. I saw a DVD in a supermarket called Atlantic Rim the other day, gonna have to buy it at some point
Haha I don't know why but I lost my shit when they were going through the actors and the chick is Tiffany, no last name as if she didn't deserve it or something hahablink said:
OT: I think any movie with giant animals seems to be pretty average. My nomination is Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus.
This bit is hilarious, especially the random "I'm getting married in two days" line.
Also, they used so many of the same animations. I don't know how many times the octopus lost all of its tentacles haha
Usually when a movie is bad I just quit on it, so I don't have many of these "so bad it's good" type movies in my list. One that comes to mind is Brain Dead though, which was just an utter laugh riot throughout.
The acting is somewhat bad at times, and the effects are bad, but those I attribute to budget more than anything. Where it gets awesome bad is the writing at a few parts. Like the priest's one-liners, terribly awesome.

I've always had a weird affection towards Batman and Robin; Schwarzenegger as Mr. Freeze was so fucking awesome...
Another terrible film I kind of enjoy is Monkeybone, It's one of those once in a lifetime experiences that I'm positive no other film, be it great or awful, will ever duplicate.
