OT: Greatest BAD movie of all time

[electricprune]

Horror At Party Beach

 

C.H.U.D

 

Masterpieces both.

"Troll 2," a movie so epically awesomely awful they made a documentary about it called "Best Worst Movie."

[TupennyConan]

Every Kevin Smith movie.

[FullOnHorror]

Toxic Avenger: Nerdy kid get's brutally picked on than dumped into a vat of toxic waste, and exacts his revenge on humanity.

 

The movie is hilarious though. My favorite part is when he's killing those guys in the ice cream shop.

 

 

 

Was "Army of Darkness" considered a hit? That movie has a way of making most folks laugh, but I attribute that to Bruce Campbell. What an amazingly funny straight man as you always feel he is laughing at himself.

 

It failed at the box office but as soon as it was released to video it pick up a following real quick.

Plan 9 from Outer Space has already been mentioned - truly a Woodian masterpiece, and try watching it then immediately viewing Ed Wood , the Tim Burton/Johnny Depp offering. Truly an evening to remember.

 

I love bad films, and they don't get much badder than Destroy All Monsters. A truly epic film that has all the ingredients required of a bad movie, and then some.

 

Do you like men in rubber suits? The full panoply of Japanese filmic monsters? Then this is the one for you!!!!

Pink Flamingo's

 

(or any John Waters film.)

1. Roadhouse: This really has it all, fighting, nudity, stuff blowing up, a monster truck crushing a Ford dealership . . .

 

2. Fletch: Pretty universally panned, where I grew up it was impossible to be a teenager in the 80's and not have this movie memorized.

 

5. Bloodsport - Pretty sweet, but then Van Damme proceeded to re-hash it a couple of times; XXX with Vin Diesel; Ang Lee's Hulk

 

Lots of these bad movies that I have watched over and over.....

 

I also like Tin Cup, Point Break (yeah with Keanu), Office Space, and several others which are similar.

[Dale Roberts]

Easy list.

 

Hulk 1

Hulk 2

 

Fantastic Four 1

Fantastic Four 2

 

X-Men 3

 

Honorable mention:

 

Punisher 1 & 2

Spiderman 3

 

All of these sucked comprehensively on one or more levels, and I still watch select bits and pieces of all of them when they air.

 

But for old school, you can't go wrong with early Gene Autry, Roy Rogers, or John Wayne movies. Desperately bad sometimes, but they still appeal.

 

 

Most of what you said is true, but John Wayne had alot of fantastic movies. Not many you can call desperately bad, unless you are talking McQ.

[Smokinghawk]

Bad Santa

 

Tremors - any of them

 

Bring it On

 

 

Edited to add: Conan the Barbarian, because it has the greatest soundtrack ever.

Yes, but for every "The Shootist" there was appalling tosh like "The Green Berets".

[AGGIEZ]

I personally do consider The Matrix bad

 

(thumbs u

bloodsport.

 

I thought this movie was the when it first came out in 1987.

 

This movie marks the start of Van Damme incorporating the splits in each and every movie he's in.

 

 

[blue808]

How about Cyborg with Van Damme. Another great bad movie (he's made quite a few of them ... bad movies that is).

[MedicAR]

How did we get this far with no mention of Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man?

 

Classic bad movie.....

[Kramerica]

Oh man...

 

Point Break

Roadhouse

The Manitou

Mortal Combat

The Eiger Sanction

The Keep

 

 

I'll be back with more...

[ignimbrite]

5) Big Trouble in Little China - Russel makes some of the best bad movies ever and this one might be the 'best'.

 

4) Can't Hardly Wait - bad movie with funny moments and a decent soundtrack

 

3) Garbage Pail Kids - who didn't like this movie?

 

2) Starship Troopers - just awesome.

 

1) Fire Down Below - Segal never gets hit the entire movie!

This dates me but it seems to me to be a tie between Five-Card Stud with Dean Martin and 99 and 44/100ths Dead with Richard Harris. Both I would see again in a New York minute.
