Favorite Bad Movies

[Hawkman]

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.

Oh, come on, Mutatis - Con Air? This is a movie worth watching just to see and hear Nick Cage say, "Put the bunny back in the box"!! Apart from that it's got John Cusak, John Malcovich, and the kind of funny looking guy from Fargo in it. It's practically a classic - lol.

Independence Day, is, or at least I understand it to be, the greatest B movie ever made

I can't argue with the Phantom Memace though. Now if you want to see a really bad movie you should take a look at, "Hawk the Slayer" Jack Palance at his worst as both actor and director!

Live and be well - H

John Malcovich is what makes Con Air awesome, along with Steve Buscemi (the funny looking guy from Fargo. ). I think they had to work to pack every possible cliche into the movie that they could, though.

Favourite bad movies... Considering that 80% of the movies I watch are pretty decent, that's difficult XD I like Spy Kids (the first movie, of course) but the first movie was decent so I guess it's hard to put it on the list. I think Sharkboy and Lavagirl was just horrible but because of Taylor Lautner I kinda enjoyed the movie and got to know him before everyone started talking about him when he starred in Twilight (which is a **** movie).

There are a lot of interesting movies I've never heard before in this post. :P

Emil,
Thanks for the fond memories.
I copied a few over from that old thread:

"...At the moment of contact with water the “The Monolith Monsters” came to mind.
Released in 1957, the Monolith Monsters adopts the concept of the classic rogue meteorite that slams into earth. In this case the meteorite, composed mostly of iron, is somehow transformed, upon contact with water, into towering monoliths of obsidian. Humans too are transformed into stone if they contact the monolith.

This is a gem.

"Romeo and Juliet" with Norma Shearer and Leslie Howard

[Hawkman]

Here's another classic for you, "Night of the Lepus". this is a film about a herd of giant rabbits marauding through small town America. I think my favoourite bit in the movie is when the local National Guard commander bursts onto centre stage at a drive in movie place and announces the approach of the giant rabbits through a megaphone and orders everyone to disperse. Now considering that the drive in was completely filled with teenagers making out in their cars, it was amzing that instead of catcalls, jeers and showers of popcorn containers, the announcement was met with docile obedience, while in the background the giant rabbits lolloped menacingly down the street. This is, without any shadow of a doubt, the silliest and really the most endearingly awful movie I have ever seen. I heartily recommend it

Any Given Sunday
Surfer Dude
Sliver

The only reason why I've watched these movies multiple times is mainly because of the eye candy.

[Stanislaw]

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)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1uwNEnh9uaM

Pink Flamingos (Divine is of course my profile wallpaper lol)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E2YVRu09nAo

Flesh Gordon (ha sex puns)

Caligula (essentially an over budgeted porno flick)

Tank Girl

It's like you are sitting in my den reading off the first five movies on the top shelf

I have made a hobby out of collecting and watching the worst movies produced throughout history, the list of horrible movies is actually quite long but in the spirit of brevity I will leave a quick top 10

1. Actium Maximus: War of the Alien Dinosaurs (the worst movie ever made... there is literally nothing worse)
2. Chopper Chicks in Zombie Town
3. Wizards of the lost Kingdom II
4. The Adventures of Clutch Powers (A Lego movie)
5. T-Force
6. Bloodsuckers
7. Fertilize the Blaspheming Bombshell(not a porn btw)
8. The Final Patient
9. Star Knight
10. Browncoat: Redemption (I like that they tried to bring back the 'verse...but the movie was just plain sad.... I really wanted this to be good, but I just couldn't find it in the movie)

as a ps I would add The Calamari Wrestler... but it is in fact my favorite movie of all time.

[Behemoth702]

Maximum Overdrive (Chomp Chomp Chomp)
Tremors (Here's the plan!)
Starship Troopers (A good bug is a dead bug.)
The Patriot (Braveheart in America.)

[Mutatis-Mutandis]

Maximum Overdrive (Chomp Chomp Chomp)
Tremors (Here's the plan!)
Starship Troopers (A good bug is a dead bug.)
The Patriot (Braveheart in America.)

Aside from Maximum Overdrive, which I've never seen, good picks.

I can't believe no one has mentioned Plan 9 From Outer Space, possibly the most famous bad movie ever. It is quite brilliant, as is the movie based on the director, Ed Wood (which is assuredly not a bad movie).

[PoeticPassions]

Face Off (John Travolta and Nic Cage are awesome... but the plot is slightly ridiculous.)
Dude Where's My Car (I admit, I thought it was sightly funny...)
Showgirls (it is so awful that it is entertaining)

there are plenty more... I'll think of them later
