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.

Highlander I wonder if this counts or not. Sean Connery was the only real star, and it is a fairly goofy plot, but for some reason I like it.

Ohhhh. In that case- Moulon Rouge.

It makes me want to retch just imagining it, yet I cannot look away.
