What was the best "worst. movie. ever"?

The Room.

I don't know if there is anything to discuss there.

The are a few art house theaters in my city that will do showings of The Room in the same style as like a Rocky Horror showing. People will yell and scream and generally make of the movie in a fun and jovial way. I've always wanted to check it out.
"You're tearing me apart, Lisa!!!"
- Yeah! I saw The Room for the first time last month in an art house theatre it was great

Iron Sky. Nazi's left earth at the end of WW2 and made a base one the darkside of the moon. Sequel has dinosaurs...

Johnny mnemonic is a camp masterpiece

Keanu Reeves, Dolph Lundgren, Ice-T, Henry Rollins....it had a hard time not being awesome despite the writing.

I really loved "My Name is Bruce". That's the thing that popped up in my mind.

Bruce Campbell is the king of B movies.
Ever notice that this movie is basically the same story as The Three Amigos?

Cannibal: The Musical.

It's a reeeally early Trey Parker and Matt Stone creation. A live action comedy musical movie about the Donner party. Definitely a classic.

Not sure it fits “so bad it’s good.” The jokes the movie wants you to laugh at are the jokes you laugh at, so it is an effective comedy.
- There are jokes you probably missed too. For example Trey bole up with his girl friend the week before making the movie, so they named the horse after her.
  When they wake up in the Indian village and they are practicing karate. They didn't have any native Americans in their film school but had plenty of asain students.
The really awkward trapper song followed by them arguing about what key it was supposed to be in had me absolutely dying.

Better Off Dead.

An early John Cusack film by Savage Steve Holland co-creator of Eek! The Cat. How many montages can you fit in one movie?

"I want my two dollars!!!"
- You like raisins!
- My god that car was sexy! Thats the day i fell in love.
Aww man, I love this movie! I'm also a fan of the Holland's other John Cusak film - One Crazy Summer.
It's not quite as good (or so fond of surreal moments), but I still enjoy it.
- Agreed, One Crazy Summer is not quite as good. But it's available to stream on YouTube and will scratch the itch a bit :)

The Core

I'd nominate Birdemic. You have to be in a mood to laugh at how bad it is.

Well, I'm convinced from that preview. Looks like the full movie is on youtube. Will have to check it out!

Tiptoes

Samurai Cop

Birdemic. Hands down. https://m.imdb.com/title/tt1316037/

RiffTrax put their full riff of Birdemic on YouTube a while back, absolutely worth 90min of your life.
Jfc... They made three of these? LMAO
- 🤣🤣🤣 oh noooo
  To be fair, we probably contributed to #2&3, our fam actually rented it since you could not find a free stream of it back then!!!

It's a crime no one has mentioned Neil Breen yet. I just came back from a showing of his latest film at an indie cinema. The whole place was so roudy and screaming at the film. I've never lost my voice watching a movie before 10/10.

Moonfall
So bad its really fun to watch.

Armageddon is something I watch far too often. It's not good but it's very entertaining.

While it was certainly entertaining, I was always more of a Deep Impact fan myself.
I thought it was weird that two movies about a comet hitting earth came out within a year of each other.
- When that happens, they are called "twin films" and it happens pretty regularly. https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/films/features/twin-films-hollywood-movies-volcano-deep-impact-armageddon-capote-infamous-florence-foster-jenkins-a8431091.html
It's very nostalgic to me, I remember watching it a ton as kid on VHS. It's not GOOD but I think of it fondly
Armageddon + DVD Ben Affleck commentary.

Dracula 3000 was a fucking masterpiece

Troll 2. So many quotable lines and unforgettable scenes. And you don't even have to watch Troll 1, because there is no Troll 1 - at least not in relation to, or in the context of, this film.

I absolutely love Troll 1 for the simple fact that the main character was named Harry Potter and he asks a witch to teach him to be a wizard halfway through the movie. It came out 11 years before the Harry Potter books.

Idiocracy was a great movie when it was satire, alas it's now at best a documentary (at worst a 'what could have been if things were good' movie) Reality caught up and beat it, alas.

Go away, baitin
Have you watched it recently? Doesn't hold up in my opinion
- Watching it right now, I think it holds up ok

house 2, worst horror movie ever, do recommend

Kung Pow is way more enjoyable than it has any right to be.

The award has to go to big trouble in little china it's incredible!

Yeah, no. That's a straight up great film.
7.2/10 on IMDB and 74% on Rotten Tomatoes.
Victor Wong and James Hong having what looks like a riot of a time too.
Sure, it was never going to win an Oscar, but that's probably a fault with the Oscars, not with BTILC.
Whaaaaat? But BTILC is a great film!
Big trouble in little tokyo is much... much.... much worse, in the blurst ways.

Cannibal women in the avacado jungle of death. Rowdy Roddy Piper, hot chicks and Bill Mayher.

Without a doubt, for me it's Re-animator. This movie also introduced me to HP Lovecraft.

The happening really holds up as one of the greatest bad movies.

It depends on what you were expecting. If you went expecting a serious thriller, then it sucks.
But I knew what I was in for, and completely lost it when (SPOILERS!) vvvv
Marky Mark talks to the potted plant.
- Marky Mark talks to the potted plant
  A plastic one at that.

Crank with Jason Statham. Ridiculous but fun.

Does Velocipastor count ?

The Gingerdead Man https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0364376/

Lake placid

A generic creature feature made memorable by Betty White as the crazy old lady rooting for the crocodile.

Shark Attack 3: Megalodon

That one used to be my favourite cause John Barrowman is in it.
Now I'm afraid of the water cause of my shark movie binge, and John Barrowman is a pervert who got dropped by everyone.
- That film has the best line ever, though. John said it was an ad-lib where he was trying to make Jenny McShane laugh.

Evil Dead

I love dumb and clichet action movie.
For that I'm gonna pick Skin Trade

American Movie

Ninja Squad.

The directors made a bunch of movies using the same technique: buy footage from unfinished Asian action movies. Splice them with footage of European martial artists sparring in the most bizarrely colourful outfits and Ninja! headbands. Dub in ridiculous dialogue about a vague revenge plot.

Don't play any drinking games with this movie. You'll die of alcohol poisoning before the third act.

Evil Aliens (2005), a British alien/UFO encounter comedy.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dak0rGzoyLU

The English dub of the kung fu movie Shaolin V. Ninja. Voices are wildly inconsistent, plot makes no sense. A great time. Pretty sure it’s on YouTube. At least it was some years ago.

ANY modern Stevel Seagal stuff imho

His classic 90s movies hit different knowing the man he'd become. There's more evidence of lazy choreography and bullshido than I noticed when I was a kid.

King Pow : Enter the Fist.

I don't agree, those guys know what they're doing and are leaning into the cringe expertly. In no way is this a bad movie.

Plan 9 From Outer Space has been long considered the best worst movie. Directed by Ed Wood it starred Bela Lougosi who died during filming and was replaced by his accountant IIRC who covered his face for the duration. It also features Vampira the original scream queen B-movie host.

The Bermuda Triangle, Hillbillies in a Haunted House, and She Devils On Wheels are some of my personal favorites. If schlock is your thing definitely check out Tubi. It's a free streaming service that is a bottomless pit of older bad films, documentaries on bad films and whole movies of nothing but trailers of old films. I'm obsessed!

Bad Boy Bubby

Slipstream (1989).. check it out if you haven't seen it. Mark Hamill, Bill Paxton and produced by Gary Kurtz (Star Wars, ESB, American Graffiti, The Dark Crystal).. This was released 5 years after Return of the Jedi with that star power and didn't even get a US cinema release.

Howard the Duck.

Good. God. It. Is. Awful.

The Love Guru

Everyone I know hates it, but I am a big Mike Myers fan.
