I love moderately bad movies. Culty movies.

Like Buckaroo Banzai and Bubba Hotep...

I don't think my movie quality scale goes past B.

I've never really seen a movie that didn't entertain me except this horrid sci fi movie in the 80's with Erin Moran from Happy Days fame that had a large alien worm raping a naked earth woman that it had slimed by sort of licking her to death. It was porno-freaky.

The movie was so bad, just badly done, and stupid even beyond my tolerance, I almost walked out.

But my coworker says that the One-Eyed Monster that is out now, speaking of pseudo-porn horror, is a total riot. It's on my Netflix queue.

Do I like bad movies...
In other words, do I like Nicolas Cage movies?
Yes, actually, I do.

"Aquamarine"! Yes, it has a mermaid. So bad, but soo good.

Of course the "Bring It On" movies are inescapable.


And what did I just watch the other night.....oh yeah! "Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen" with Lindsay Lohan. I couldn't tear myself away. I can't believe I just put that in writing.

If they are so bad I can make fun of them, then yes. I remember seeing the movie Blood Rayne and laughing and making fun of the movie the whole way. It's better if you see bad movies with friends or you'll be making sarcastic remarks to strangers.

All in all, it's not worth watching a bad movie unless you have someone else to enjoy it with. Otherwise, stick with good movies.

I think I saw Blood Rayne! Not sure... movies in that genre all look alike.

Nope. I checked. Didn't. But they made it look so good in the trailer!

Emm... there are plenty of US movies that really make me wanna through out (Almost all the movies with Tom Cruz and Brad Pitt), but we need them to enjoy the rare masterpieces.

Bring It On was on TV last night. I was tempted, I must say...But I can't stand the commercials. So I taped Mega Shark vs The Giant Octopus and then my brilliant husband's Sage TV add-on strips out all the commercials for me.

I enjoy the Sci-fi b rate flicks... Scantly clad women with horrible acting skills and usually some huge horrible creature chasing them with bad computer editing...

Everybody has different opinions and likes for different movies regardless of what the critics say about it or rate it. I myself don't care about what other people say if i like the movie then it isnt a bad movie to me, and vice-versa. Obviously if your watching "Bring it on" for more then 45 min your interested in it and you somewhat like it so to you its not a bad movie.

Ow, but it is. It is a very bad movie. I would not hesitate one second to turn it off or to miss it if I had something more important to do.

The dialoge is just horrible (nobody in real life talks like this), the acting is actually ok for the type of movie it is, except from a few of the actresses, the story is unbelievable even with the entire amount susupense of disbelieve that I can muster...

It is a very very bad movie in my opinion.

Yet, it is still enjoyable to watch, exactly because it is such a bad movie. It is a preference for bad movies that I have..

I´m not interested per se in it, i´m just enjoying it. On a whole different level (probably in a different universe even) as I would enjoy a movie like The Dark Knight or something... but still enjoyable.

Eeep I have a stash of my "trash" movies that I will only watch ALONE. They often involve Rutger Hauer (formative crush in teen years), tacky tacky romance plots, and were usually made in the late 80's.

Ladyhawke
Blind Fury
Past Midnight
Flesh and Blood (oh my SO bad!!)
A Hazard of Hearts
Napoleon and Josephine - A love Story
The Bride
Logan's Run



I also like really good movies but all of the above were first seen in my teen years and have imprinted on me irrevocably.

I don't have a particular love of bad movies , but I do , or I did once go through a phase where I kept choosing REALLY REALLY bad flicks. It was embarrassing at the time. My boyfriend almost banned me from making any more movie choices.
The hair that broke the camels back was when I thought there was no way I could go wrong picking a Johnny Depp film, and really sold it to my very sceptical boyfriend as being definately worth watching!
The movie was titled something like "9 Windows" and Depp starred as a writer/schizophrenic murderer...

Well...it was sooooooo friggin' bad that I turned and looked at my boyfriend half way through the movie and he had his head in his hands and his head was just shaking from side to side...it was so funny!

Needless to say I was banned after that one...and I was so pissed off at Johnny Depp for choosing to be part of such a bad movie. I felt almost betrayed actually as I had come to expect nothing but gold from him!

I haven't seen a scifi movie in years. Science fiction is supposed to have "science"...

Tonight's movie does:
Lightning Strikes - A man (kevin Sorbo) must save his town from a monster that hides in lightning.

It's very scientific (and yet horrible at the same time)
