Favorite Bad Movies

JBI inspired the idea for this thread when he mentioned his favorite movie is Mrs. Doubtfire (I"m still undecided as to is he serious or not :D). I think we all have our guilty pleasure when it comes to movies. I know I do. So list some of your favorite bad movies. Here's my list:

Star Wars, Episodes I: The Phantom Menace
Air Force One
Independence Day
Con Air
Waterworld (I hesitated to put this on the list, because I really do think it's a good movie, despite its reputation.)

I know there're more, but that's what comes to mind.

I don't think any of those really count as so bad its good movies though. For that you need something from Troma, like "Surf Nazis Must Die."

My favourite bad movies in no particular order:

Barbarella (campy fun)

Pink Flamingos (Divine is of course my profile wallpaper lol)

Flesh Gordon (ha sex puns)

Caligula (essentially an over budgeted porno flick)

Tank Girl

Tremors

The Mummy and The Mummy Returns


The Railway Children (though this only counts as a bad movie in the sense that it's safe, twee, cosy and kinda lame - but I don't think there's anything wrong with that when it's done this well.)

Tremors is a good choice.

John Waters: can't decide what's more unnerving, his movies or his mustache.

I own a DVD of Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever - officially the worst reviewed movie of all time. It's one of my prize possessions.

Gather a group of friends round, crack open the alcohol, and laugh yourself silly as you try to comprehend the plot...

I've also got a rare copy of Manos: The Hands of Fate - which is similarly ridiculous...

Fraternity Vacation (1985)

Hairspray and Pecker are pretty tame though.

The musical remake kind of misses the point of the Waters original, which stabs a knife into the gut of the perfect image of Middle America. The remake makes it into a relatively pleasant treatment of race issues that can take advantage of the retro setting for the soundtrack.

Liquid Sky ;)

Kevin Smith's movies, in particular Dogma.

How about "Phenomenon" with John Travolta?

Tremors and the first two Mummy movies are good picks (the third was is just unbearable, though).

Zardoz (1974) starring Sean Connery. After James Bond, how the mighty are fallen!

Well one of the most famous "so bad it is good" films has to be Troll 2 (look at the views on the trailer). I've seen it twice a few years ago and I wet my pants, but you wouldn't catch me watching it a third time - I have standards to maintain!!

The best bit is that the director is deadly serious, supposedly.

The most qualified actor in the films was a dentist.

Unbelievably poor (IMDB top 100 worst rated).

If you haven't seen it and you think the trailer is bad then I can tell you these are some of the best acted parts.

Simply incomprehensible.
