They Live
Big Trouble in Little China &
Johnny Dangerously
Night of the Comet rocked.
Pink Flamingos - Always love a bad John Waters film.
Time Cop - Ferris Bueller’s future ex-wife is now married to Jean Claude.
Eraserhead -Horrible. A Classic.
The Octagon - Chuck Norris’ best. Nuff Said.
I love that movie!
Almost forgot: Firestarter (love the soundtrack, too)
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.
Loved Johnny Dangerously, Joe Piscopo’s finest role.
“You’re testes and you...”
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!
Bad Santa with Billy Bob Thornton, cracks me up everytime I see it on TV.
Not Guilty. /gratuitous attempt at hijacking the thread.
Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure.
Was a funny movie, but it was a movie that ended in a manner that would indicate it lost all respect for itself.
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.
The Lost Skeleton of Cadavra remains the epitome of cinematic excellence.
There can be only wishful comparison.
I watched that movie as a boy and I still love it.
