My first thought also. The Crawling Eye.
Forrest Tucker does a first rate acting job.
The Curse of the Demon (Dana Andrews)
Army of Darkness
1408 (the theatrical release- a classic!)
The Last Airbender
Pulse (Kristin Bell)
UHF (Weird Al’s acting is frighteningly bad, but I love him!)

Leon planned "The Great Allnighter" by picking college students to participate in his night long scavenger hunt. The five teams, each designated by colors white (nerds who hate green),green (meat machine who hate red), red (sorority sisters who hate green), yellow (good guys who play fair), and blue (cheaters who hate yellow) are given clues to solve, leading them to the next clue site hidden in the city. Michael J. Fox plays Scott,the younger brother,in his movie debut.
Greatest terrible movie ever. Must have watched it 500 times as a kid.

The first full length movie of Dune, a sci-fi classic. Absolutely ruined the book for me for years. The tv remake of Dune later on was better, but Dune is simply not ever going to be a great movie because often the story develops its layers through the thoughts/interior reflections of the characters. When a reader reads those thoughts, it’s a natural part of the storytelling. When there is a voice-over onscreen for a movie of the thoughts of a character, it’s silly and just shows how inadequate movies are when compared to books anyway, ultimately.

Night of the Comet rocked.

Eraserhead -Horrible. A Classic.

I have trouble with this, because unless they fall into the “laughably awful” category, where the pleasure is strictly in making fun of them (like “Plan 9,” “Creeping Terror” or “Showgirls”), if I like them, I don’t think they’re horrible.
One possible exception might be “Hold On,” starring Herman’s Hermits. Amazingly stupid storyline and prime example of 60s silliness, but it’s fun to see the band in action.
I suppose the beach movies also fall into this category, especially since I find most anything with Buster Keaton in it worth a look.

“Lolita” — the old one with James Mason and Shelley Winters, with some hilarious cameos by Peter Sellers.
Saw it for the first time this month. It is so bizarre, but also very entertaining. Shelley as the overwrought high-strung mom of Lolita—her overacting was even more prodigious than in “Poseidon Adventure.”
The usually suave James Mason acting like an idiotic teenager! So bizarre to see him in the bathtub planning his late wife’s funeral with neighbors. How did he manage to keep a straight face?
The movie was supposed to be sexy and scandalous when it came out in the sixties.
Now it is just a laughfest from beginning to end.

Terrible destruction of a great book, but that movie had other things going for it.

Night of the Comet OMG, that was one of my favorite movies!! I can still tell you what movie it is, even if I come into it late because I am flipping channels.
O.k, I am really afraid to admit that I've seen most if not all of these movies.
But still, I have yet to see anyone mention that beloved by FReepers classic, The Lost Skeleton of Cadavra!

Nothing But Trouble, with Chevy Chase, John Candy, and Demi Moore. Great lines and great special EFX.

I found Priest to be surprisingly good, compared to all the reviewer ratings panning it.
My only criticism with the Green Lantern was that the time was too short in terms of proper pacing and the chosen villain was too powerful for the first movie. I mean what are they going to do for an encore?
The acting and characters and special effects were otherwise very good, imo.
