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.

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

[-] Bonehead@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

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

[-] ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

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

[-] TooMuchDog@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 year ago

Bruce Campbell is the king of B movies.

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.

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

[-] Vuipes@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago

Moonfall
So bad its really fun to watch.

[-] ShustOne@lemmy.one 6 points 1 year ago

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

Dracula 3000 was a fucking masterpiece

[-] OverfedRaccoon@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

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.

[-] TooMuchDog@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 year ago

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.

RiffTrax put their full riff of Birdemic on YouTube a while back, absolutely worth 90min of your life.

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.

[-] TheInsane42@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

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.

house 2, worst horror movie ever, do recommend

[-] Hank@kbin.social 5 points 1 year ago

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

[-] chrizbie@lemmy.nz 5 points 1 year ago

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

[-] adam_y@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

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!

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

[-] scumola@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 year ago

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

[-] Nonameuser678@aussie.zone 4 points 1 year ago

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

[-] massive_bereavement@kbin.social 5 points 1 year ago

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

Crank with Jason Statham. Ridiculous but fun.

Does Velocipastor count ?

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

[-] TheDoctorDonna@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

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.

[-] CM400@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

That film has the best line ever, though. John said it was an ad-lib where he was trying to make Jenny McShane laugh.

ANY modern Stevel Seagal stuff imho

[-] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

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.
