'Trashy' films you enjoy watching

[bartholen_v1legacy]

Crank 2. By God, is that film trashy. It offends just about every minority or sexual group, it's incredibly tasteless and violent, but oh Lord is it fun.

 

[LongAndShort]

Welp, just about anything with Arnold Schwartzenegger in it. Or Jason Statham, such as:

Ah, the fun you can have creating 'friction'.

Films that I would consider 'trashy' but also awesome:

Toxic Avenger
Teeth
Class of Nuke 'Em High
Reanimator
Planet Terror
Ghoulies
Conan The Barbarian(the original)
Commando
Running Man
Death Wish 1,2 and 3
The Abominable Dr Phibes
Tenebre
Suspiria
Man with the screaming brain
Horror in the attic(also known as The Attic Expeditions)


Plus a whole heap of others, I love trashy films.

Good lord sir you have quite the list!

To that I would add The Barbarians and Vamp. Otherwise I've been ninja'd. Well done sir. Well done.

Drive is far from trashy. It was 80's, not trashy.

OT: My favourite trash movie is probably True Lies. It's just a big dumb action slapstick extravaganza, and I adore it.

Constantine.

But I just.

Keep.

Watching it.

Peter Stormare's portrayal as the Devil is worth the price of enduring Keanu and LeBouf.

Even if it is a short performance. It's what totally sold me the first time I watched it.

Does Case 39 count as a "trashy movie"? I mean it was clearly budgeted well but when your pull-in to watch is Renee Zellweger and that girl from the US version of "The Ring", what can you really expect?

And yet every darn time... I'm pulled in to watch it.

Some people have already said Starship Troopers and Army of Darkness.

I will say those and Kung Pow: Enter the Fist and Man With the Iron Fist.

I love those movies to bits and every single terribly awesome thing about them.

 

[Uhura]

I love Frank Henenlotter's Frankenhooker. I guess it could be called a trashy film. Hard Ticket to Hawaii is also a really entertaining film and it has a seriously catchy theme song.

 

[NoeL]

Poultrygeist: Night of the Chicken Dead is phenomenal.

I also loved Doom the first couple of times I saw it, but don't even bother with the extended cut - so boring.

You won my heart when you said:

Starship Troopers
Would you like to know more?

Blood and dismemberment everywhere!!!! Not only is it a great movie but it's a fairly smart satire if you're paying attention. Also, Neil Patrick Harris is in it! Sure...he only gets like, fifteen minutes of film time but still, NPH! Giant bugs have attacked Earth and therefore the only good bug is a dead bug!


But still waiting on the phone call from Command reinstating me effective immeditaly Tippy

Command decided to do some R&R with Dark Souls...

That wasn't a good R&R decision

All well.

I freaking LOVE the Starship Troopers movies. I read the book. I LOVED Starship Troopers 1. I...*sigh...Starship Troopers 2; I pretend never happened for it was possibly the worst movie ever so it doesn't really exist I've decided. It was like a shitty knock-off of Species and Species wasn't a great movie to begin with! Starship Troopers 3 was awesome even if the CGI bugs look like ass! The animated TV show was...it wasn't terrible but removing the gore from Starship Troopers is like removing the Yippie-Kay-Yah mother fucker from Die Hard! I own but I haven't watched the newest CGI movie but I am cautiously optimistic that it will be awesome.

I named my World of Warcraft guy (for the two months I played) and my Knights of the Old Republic (for the one month I played it) Klendathu and was very disappointed that no one I ran into ever got the damn reference!

I try really hard to like the movie but after reading the book I just can't. Too many variances and differences. I know its trying to be campy and satire but I just can't do it. I liked the animated stuff better than the live action.

 

[Scarim Coral]

Pretty much Transformers for me as the only good thing about that film is for the special effect and action.

 

[Cain_Zeros]

The Resident Evil movies. They're, quite honestly, fucking terrible, but so god damn entertaining at the same time.

 

[Thaluikhain]

Demolition Man.

Modern action movies have nothing on that.

 

[Thatnorwegian]

Since Starship Troopers has already been mentioned, I'll go with Turtles 2: Secret of the Ooze.


"You're gonna destroy us all"
"THEN SO BE IT"

Nostaliga is funny that way

 

[ShipofFools]

I love trashy, gory horror films where everything is played for laughs. Like Herbert West: Re-animator, the Evil Dead series, Brain Dead, Return of the living dead...
And also kung fu films, the more ridiculous the better!

You also had the Starship troopers cartoon that was out when I was oyung -that was awesome as hell and I'm glad my dad let me watch the movie (at 7/8) so that the cartoon became EVEN MORE AWESOME!

From Paris With Love

Watching John Travolta charge around for 90 minutes just blowing shit up and going crazy is an absolute joy. I *love* this film.

 

[Moonlight Butterfly]

The Tremors movies and a Steven King film with Emilio Estevez called Maximum Overdrive where all the electronics start coming to life and killing people.

I think I'm a sucker for incredibly cheesy 'a few people stuck in a very bad place' movies.

I'm having a group of friends up tonight to watch The Room.
