    Hollow Man, Valentine, Urban Legend, Anaconda, Lake Placid, The Temp, The Skulls (I've always been a sucker for a cheap thrill/scare)

    Final Analysis, Bad Boys, Under Siege 2, Sphinx, Money Talks, Most Wanted, Passenger 57

    I know there's more. Just have to think it through.

    I still think the bad movie I love is the worst. It has Justin Timberlake in it. That is how bad it is.

    Oh and I have not seen it since I was a child, but when I was a child, I thought King Kong Lives was a great sequel to a great movie. I might still have a soft spot for it, who knows.

    ACTION JACKSON, at the top of my list, standing apart from all the rest (though it is hard to see it, because there is so much smoke -- the film really suffers from the post-ET post-FLASHDANCE look.) COMMANDO is on there, too, just saw it on blu-ray.

    You did not just bring Vincent Price into this thread (no matter for what film). Just for that, I am going to banish you to some lonely far off place...

    The fearless vampire killers is not a bad movie.

    I enjoy The Fearless Vampire Killers, no matter what people say about Polanski.

    A couple of films I know are prety bad, but that I love regardless: FROM DUSK TILL DAWN and HARDWARE.

    I'm watching one right now: Men, Women, & Children. All I heard last year was how bad this film was, but it's kind of interesting. It does have two actresses I have always found oddly alluring: Rosemarie DeWitt and Judy Greer.

    I would not call From Dusk till Dawn bad, although it is very uneven.

    FDTD changes genre midway through the film. Interesting experiment.

    Yes. It could have been better.

    Another film that does this is Something Wild, which starts as a comedy and turns into a thriller.

    ZERO HOUR. The film AIRPLANE is based on. Hard to imagine, but much of the dialogue is the same.

    GREEN HORNET and DEATH RACE

    I never read the GH comics, so that could be the reason. Waltz is a hoot in it.
    Death Race (never saw the original DR 2000) is not too different from Mad Max.

    Masters of the universe. 80's nostalgia and reliving a happy childhood.

    GH (the movie) has nothing to do with the real Green Hornet (who didn't start in the comics, anyway). The only good thing in it was Jay Chou, the best Kato since Bruce Lee. And you should really see the original Death Race. I loved it.

    My pick : the Police Academy movies, if only for Michael Winslow.

    No way is Jonah Hex a bad movie. It is a brilliant one.

    I think so too, but isn't it considered to be "bad"?

    Can't believe nobody's mentioned the legendary The Room yet - a movie so bad it still gets packed cinema screenings around the world. Tommy Wiseau, the bizarre writer, producer, director and STAR of the movie, clearly has issues with trust and women, and is the subject of a fantastic making-of book that is currently being turned into a movie itself.

    Here is a clip from the movie, starring the aforementioned Tommy, along with Mark (played by Greg Sestero, who ended up writing that making of book I mentioned: 'The Disaster Artist).

    In the scene Tommy's fiancée Lisa has been telling people that Tommy's been hitting her but Tommy doesn't know that Mark is sleeping with Lisa behind his back!



    The entire film's like this. Plot threads and major characters appear only to disappear a few scenes later and never get mentioned again. (This happens well into the final act of the film, too).

    The best scene, almost poetic in its nonsense, is when Tommy buys some flowers for his beloved. It's like the writer/director has never seen people speak to each other in real life:



    I have been to see it on the big screen multiple times, including one time with a Q+A with Tommy, who signed my DVD copy. I implore you to see the movie if you haven't already. It's bonkers!

    I actually like that one too. There must be something wrong with us...

    Would The Wolfman with the badly miscast Benicio Del Toro be considered bad? Because I really like it, especially the Director's Cut with the Max Von Sydow cameo.
