Waking Ned Devine is absolutely hysterical.

The version with or without the ending? My DVD copy is, in fact, missing the last scene (found it on YouTube).

The Devil’s Rain, with William Shatner and Ernest Borgnine. One of my all-time favorites.

Japanese 50’s cold war monster movies, such as “The Claw.”

There's a blast from the past!

Just looking at the titles in the first 50 posts raises a question. What describes horrible? Box office? B level studio/production company? Not what one would expect from the cast?

For me, "horrible" would be a film that's produced and cast as an "A" movie, but turns out to be abysmal. Some examples would be Battlefield: Earth and The Last Action Hero.

Stuff like Plan 9, The Legend of Boggy Creek and Manos: The Hands of Fate may be guilty pleasures, but they're not really horrible. They are what they are, no pretense about 'em. Same goes for deliberate spoofs, such as the old Casino Royale, Hot Shots and Galaxy Quest.

One more that is absolutely awesome for film buffs who see the deeper connections between The Wizard of Oz, Buddy Holly, Samurai epic pieces, Russian Surfpunk, post-apocalyptic anything, and the never-ending struggle between death metal and rock & roll but that no one else seems to get:

Six String Samurai (1998) - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118736/

Good calls. Hill could have been a sort of slightly hippie-ish, slightly crazy Clint. Love his movies.

You watch the whole movie just to see the girl at the end....

That scene haunted me for YEARS!

I would have to add Transylvania 6-5000. A young ‘Kramer’ and a smoking hot Genna Davis.

Hmm... I'm not sure. And the fact that I don't know whether the version I saw had the last scene or not says volumes about just how bad the movie was. :-D

****** The Blair Witch Project

When I saw it (alone - my wife thought it sounded dumb) the kids behind me said “That was the lamest movie ever”.

I replied “I guess you haven’t spent too many nights alone in the woods”.

***************

“Canadian Bacon” - just saw it again. Stupid, but fun.
