Favorite BAD movie

Post by **The Yosemite Bear** » 2003-07-28 02:20am

well many of us have a soft spot in our hearts for Bad Martial Arts, Hammer Horror films, or It came from Rodger Corman Studios.

What's your favorite bad movie.

hmm, with me it would probably be the Hammer Lee/Cushing Vampire films.

Bad Boys II, as far as recent films go. Loud, tasteless, violent, jingoistic, and excessive. I love it.

The Master of Disguise.

I love that flick.

Well, I have Horror of Dracula and Dracula: Prince of Darkness on video so I must agree a little bit about the Lee/Cushing Dracula flicks. I'm not sure I would consider them bad but certainly D: PoD has not aged well since the big deal about it was the "shocking" and "gore filled" resurection scene. Not too big of a deal these days.

As a long time Godzilla fan I'd have to say that my favorite bad movie is Godzilla vs. Megalon. I think some of it has to do with it being in the theaters and then on tv when I was a kid (I saw the special hosted by John Belushi in a Godzilla suit). I've generally found most of the bad Godzilla movies to be more intertaining if they fly through the "plot/story" and just get to the fighting and blowings stuff up, and that's what Megalon does.

Batman & Robin
It sucks, but it also sucks my eyeballs on the screen and I don't know why.

Planet of the Apes (Tim Burton)
For Estella Warren's sake.

For me, it's a tie between Reptilicus (Denmark's attempt to make a giant monster movie) and Black Scorpion. (Roger Corman's attempt to make a superhero movie)

A honourable mention go to Cobra. It's so cliché-ridden that it's funny. And it takes itself way too seriously!

The Hammer horror films are NOT bad movies!! They're cult movies, not bad movies!!

"Amazon Women in the Avocado Jungle of Death" or something and "The Faculty"--both are pretty classic.

Plan Nine from Outer Space

Yes, i know it's a cliche, but I adore the innocence of it, and the fact that it maintains that innocence despite being about alien grave robbing zombie makers.

Hey, but Black Scorpion has Joan Severance in it and isn't afraid to make full use of her.

Cobra just makes me laugh.

You're right about it though. It's such a parody of action movies. I like Brian Thompson as the villian.

I didn't say I didn't appreciate it.

It also has possibly the silliest car chase this side of "Rat Phink A Boo Boo" ...

True. I guess I was trying to say that I understand why you like it.

In it's own way it is at least as entertaining as many of the other super hero movies that cost a lot more to make.

Josie and the Pussycats, and Scooby Doo. Both of those were so cool. In an uncool, cool way. If that makes sense.

The Rambo trilogy, Predator I & II.

I also liked the "Scorpionmobile" - a Corvette which had the power to turn into something which looks like an unholy crossbreed between a Porsche 911 and a Mazda RX-7. (I never got a good view of the Scorpionmobile, so correct me if I'm wrong)

And all the blatant Star Wars references. (The Breathtaker was nothing but a hammy version of Darth Vader)

I liked Scooby Doo quite a lot.

Josie & the Pussycats was mainly funny with how much it ripped into the recording industry, Boy Bands, corporate sponsorship etc... The code word for offing the annoying boy bad was a nice touch "Chevy to the Levy".

The really funny par, for me anyway, was the videos of the Boy Band that are on the DVD.

I couldn't remember the name. I just remember them arguing about who stole whose "thing" (ie moves) and the part where they show up in bandages etc... and the one guy has flames panted on his. They weren't injured in the plain crash but they landed at a Metallica concert and the fans beat the shit out of them until they started singing Enter Sandman.

Anyway, that movie was a pretty good satire but completely mismarketed. It was advertised as a teeny bopper movie based on the old comic book/cartoon. Unfortunately the movie was making fun of all the stuff that it's target audience was really into at the time, which is probably why I liked it even if it is pretty bad.
