What are some critically "bad" movies that you love?

[Gigacardio]

And I enjoyed Anaconda despite the fact that it's definitely not a good movie.

 

[AGGAMEMNON66]

Maximum Overdrive

Same. It’s a classic in my book.

 

[PBAC]

Tekkonkreet

 

[ObsoleteSoul]

 

[Larzon]

Freddy Got Fingered is in my top 2 comedies alongside Team America. Most can't stand the movie but I don't believe they actually understand what Tom Green was doing.

 

[Kal-El]

The howling 2: Your sister is a werewolf.

Christopher Lee is in it as he wanted to do a werewolf movie, he thinks it's so terrible he'd refuse to answer any questions about it after the film was done. I liked it .

 

[GarbageGuy]

all jumanji movies

 

[Bacco]

These are some others that did'nt got great scores but worked well

 

[Kimchii]

 

[Spam On Rye]

There's a podcast called How Did This Get Made? that's pretty great.

 

[Bojka]

I liked Pain and Gain.

Yeah that definately comes to mind, reviewers seemed to consider it a genuine attempt to make a mainstream comedy film when it was pretty clearly taking the piss out of such films. Rip Torn is great in this as well, really helps turn that idea and Green weird pranks into something genuinely funny...

 

[I Am Legion]

Poltergeist 2 had 20% RT score but to me it had one of the scariest Villains ever:

Most horror gets panned, but I love a lot of it. Most of M. Night movies get killed but I love most of them. Even the Village and Lady In The Water.

Solomon Kane is such an underrated pulp character. He was a better than Conan. Great movie as well.


This is a campy mess and glorious because of it.

Wish they would have made a movie about my sad, dour boy, Kull of Atlantis. NOT the Sorbo movie, which was a Conan story. Howard was such a boss at creating cool characters. Shame he was such a momma’s boy.

I love how the first Conan story was originally a Kull story but he made some small edits to the character and got his cash cow out of it. The Kull stories are great

 

[GearSolidMetal]

still pulled best performance of the movie by far

Considering the rest of the cast, that isn't saying much.

I unironically have him on my 'Top Villain Performances of All Time' list.

Its not easy to perform a character that is an evil warlord dictator with world domination aspirations.... and make him hilarious... without becoming a slap-stick parody. If you look at what he had to work with in the script there really isn't much there, and a lesser actor would have botched it like...... Brian Thompson as Shao Kahn in Mortal Kombat Annihilation.

But his announciation & expressions... he sold it in a way I truly don't believe many other actors could have possibly equaled that performance.

It was his final film performance, and he gave us the perfect M.Bison beyond what the film, and the audience, deserved. He will never be forgotten.

Tenacious d and the pic of destiny.

 

[Darkavius]

 

[Madmick]

The Island of Dr Moreau (1996) - I don't understand for the life of me why it's considered a bad movie....it's probably just because there was a lot of drama surrounding the making of it.

One of the lowest rated movies on IMDb of all time that I really enjoyed, despite the mess that it was, but LOL at Val Kilmer on the poster instead of David Thewlis who played the lead.

Such a great ending, though. The delivery by Thewlis of the final words was tremendous. I've never forgotten it, and its message.
