Napoleon is a great movie!
That one is somewhat dated and very gritty, but it's holding up better than I expected. Of course, that's due as much to the downward quality trend in films since then, as it is to Burt's film.
Quentin Tarentino sure likes it; he's used clips from the White Lightning sound track in two of his films.
I saw Paint Your Wagon at a drive-in as a kid. Loved it.
You just made by blood crawl again as it did when I saw it for the first time.
George Burns singing “I’m Fixing a Hole” is dreadful.
Johnny Depp in “Ed Wood” is great. Especially in the scenes directing Plan 9.
The Crow City of Angels. I love the stylization, the dreamy atmosphere. I find this film completely hypnotic, even in spite of the Kabuki-level performances from such great actors as Iggy Pop.
Street Trash. Weird, nasty horror flick about winos and mobsters who drank this strange booze and melted into multicolored puddles. Absolutely hilarious, in a sick, twisted way.
And who can forget Bevis and Butthead Do America? Or do cartoon movies count?
I don’t know if Napoleon Dynamite should be on this list. I think it was a popular and critical hit, or if not a hit, at least a positive.
One of my favorite movies of all time.
I have no idea whether “Nacho Libre” is considered a “bad” movie or not, but, that’s another big favorite around here.
And the kids and the men loved ALL the Ernest movies.
LOL! Just watched this the other night on Elvira. Looks like they had a plumber do their helmets, and used camouflage greasepaint. Mercy. ba-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-d movie. You win!
Commando
Predator (something about those ridiculous, testosterone-laden Ahnuld flicks I love, to my shame)
Dirty Dancing
O Brother was an awesome movie. My family has the entire dialogue memorized. On the other hand, there are movies like Nothing But Trouble (Chevy Chase, Dan Ackroyd) that absolutely defy description...
Starship Troopers!!!! Love it!
This is actually a set of three movies. The first and last episode are typically campy, but the middle one is GHASTLY BAD. Words fail me...
Have seen it at least ten times, and every time I ask myself, "What was I thinking?"
Close second has to be, This is Spinal Tap. Then again, I lived right by Pixie Woods in Stockton, California where much of the movie was filmed.
By the way, I would pay really good movie for the amp that goes to 11, when 10 is just not enough!

Bugsy Malone
I just finished watching Lolita after finishing the book! Now I know why Kubrick casted Sellers in Dr. Strangelove!
