Favorite Bad Movie?
Probably been posted a thousand times...

What's your favorite bad movie. You know. That movie you own and even upgraded to DVD which you're almost embarrased to watch.

One of those movies where people say 'Movie Title!?!? Why do you own that?!?' and you have to defend it...

Mine...

King Ralph - John Goodman a crass American ascends the British throne.

Full of reagan-era paranoia and fear, and lets face it, charlie sheen pretty much sucks in everything. But it was entertaining, I liked it! Trivia: Red Dawn was the first movei to have the PG-13 rating. Ever.

8. I remember loving it when I first saw it.
The theater was so overflowing that I had to sit in the aisle and I just remember laughing so hard I couldn't hear parts of the movie.

Saw it recently on cable and it didn't make me laugh. Warm feeling though.

3. I have to say it again: Dumb & Dumber.
Quite a few people really don't get what I see in that movie.

4. Ishtar - so bad (in the opinion of most) that it hasn't even made it to
DVD. Me, I think it's great - and a great jab at the Reagan mindset of the early eighties.

10. Zardoz
What's not to love? :)

You have such classic dialog as:

The gun is good, the penis is evil, the penis shoots seeds!

and in what other movie does a giant flying stone head play such a prominent role?

18. "Eegah!"
Starring the oh, so dreamy Arch Hall, Jr...and a young Richard Kiel (who went on to play the character "Jaws" in "The Spy Who Loved Me" and "Moonraker") as Eegah! Horrifically bad, but hilariously entertaining. :-)
