The core

The Room?

Army of Darkness, assuming self-parodies are allowed.

Twilight. If nothing more than to count the red flags and use it as a teaching tool for young teens on what not to do in romantic relationships.

Mom and Dad Save the World [1992] even as an 8 year old I understood this was a bad movie by so many standards but enjoyed it anyway. The injection. The muscly bird people. The fish people. Probably the first thing I ever saw Jon Lovitz in and I will forever see Spengo in any other character he ever plays.

Better Off Dead (1985)

Lane Meyer (John Cusack) is a teen with a peculiar family and a bizarre fixation with his girlfriend, Beth (Amanda Wyss). When Beth dumps Lane, he decides to kill himself, making bumbling attempts at suicide. Outside his morbid endeavors, Lane spends time with his oddball buddy, Charles (Curtis Armstrong), and befriends Monique (Diane Franklin), a visiting French student. Eventually, Lane resolves to race Beth's obnoxious new beau on the ski slopes, with unexpected results.

there are so. many. montages.

Snakes on a Plane

Phil The Alien

"Phil is an extraterrestrial with shape-shifting ability and telekinetic powers. After crash-landing in Northern Ontario, Phil befriends a red neck child, his father, and a talking beaver as he wanders the Canadian wilderness. Phil is soon introduced to the trappings of small town northern Ontario and adopts the persona and mannerisms of a stereotypical Canadian small town alcoholic while hiding from the ineffectual and mentally traumatized military general who is trying to capture him."

You can pick only one? There's so many!

• Yogahosers
• Llamagedon
• Velocipastor
• Holyman Undercover
• Kung Fury
• Empire Queen: Golden age of magic

Like choosing a top five is hard (yes I know that's six).

It also depends on who you're watching with. Any "bad" movie is the worst, or the best, depending on group ability to vibe with it

Evil Dead.

Idiocracy 😀

Street fighter (1994)

Battlefield Earth.

Cocaine Bear.

Mars Attacks

Rubber

From the top of my head:

• Braindead / Dead Alive
• Tromeo and Juliet
• Death Machine

Volcano or Dante's Peak. Both are fun and bad in their own way

Top secret

Moonfall. There are some dull parts, but it's even more fun rewatching with someone who has no idea about the "plot".

Ice Pirates

Star Wars prequels.

Mac and Me has a legacy thanks to Paul Rudd

Does Velocipastor count? They knew exactly what they were doing and made a masterpiece, but it is undoubtedly a bad movie.

Anaconda, closely followed by the first three movies in the Breenaverse, but probably Fateful Findings is the crown jewel.

From a vintage perspective, you can't do wrong with Space Mutiny, Werewolf or The Mole People.

But I always have a special place in my heart for Pumaman, the crapiest of heroes.

Miami Connection.

Funny that, I just started a collection of entertainingly bad movies. We're at 100+ already. Highlights thus far include

Zardoz - Sci-fi Sean Connery in a future diaper.
Magic Magic - Horror movie Michael Cera.
Troll 2 - A Troll movie entirely bereft of trolls.
Showgirls - Stripper Nicholas Cage as played by Jesse from Saved by the Bell.
Critters 3 - Leonardo DiCaprio's film debut.
Breakin', Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo, AND Rappin' - no explanation needed.

Troll 2

Independence Day.

The Sharknado movies.

My favourite scene is when there was a flood but the streets were only about 10cm under water and then the sharks were swimming in the streets eating people.

Or the one were a one of the tornado sharks came flying to eat the main character and the dude chainsawed the shark in half.

It was a 'cult revival' a few years ago. The only movie I ever walked out of. My buddy stayed and says he enjoyed it:

Kull the Conqueror: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kull_the_Conqueror

Bring It On: Worldwide #Cheersmack

Birdemic

leprechaun movies.

The Room is probably the correct answer but since that’s been said already I’ll go with Gymkata.

Some people say terminator 3 is bad. They're wrong. It's incredible

Plan 9 From Outer Space is the classic worst movie ever made, and that's why it's entertaining.

Jesus Christ: Vampire Hunter

Zardoz

Reanimator

Anything by Neil Breen.

Anything done by mystery science theater 3000!! Especially the final sacrifice!

Y'all are missing some gems.

UHF

Frankenhooker

Spice World

The Star Wars Holiday Special is genuine torture

They Live

The Adventures of Buckaroo Bonsai

The Long Kiss Goodnight

Jaws: the Revenge

Orca

Manos: Hands of Fate shouldn't even be considered a movie. AI can make better

Mac and Me

Start with that, see how it goes.

Attack of the Killer Tomatoes 🍅

House

Hercules Returns https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0107103/

Disaster zone: volcano in new york

"Samurai Cop" is so great to watch - hilariously bad, but actually has two charismatic leads and all the good vibes of a buddy cop film down. Pretty enjoyable every time.

Sexdrive (uncut version)

Dancin': It's On

Directed and produced by I've if the choreographers of Westside Story. He also put himself on this movie.

It is cringe.

But I have more info if anyone wants. I was living in Panama City when it was filmed. Lol

I think the key to a good bad movie is "I want to make a movie but I haven't got any money" or "I want to make a movie but I don't know what I'm doing" rather than "I want to make a movie but I can't really be bothered to put any effort in".

Take Plan 9 From Outer Space. There's a certain amount of charm from seeing a guy hide his face the entire movie to hide the fact that he's clearly not Bela Lugosi, the UFOs being hubcaps on fishing lines, or the fact that all the cockpit scenes appear to be in somebody's shed.

I genuinely enjoyed The Sand... it is an objectively bad film, but I was never bored. There's more than a couple other horror films that I could probably list.

Turkish spiderman.

"So bad that it becomes good" territory. Spiderman doesn't even have webs in this movie, he just stabs people.

The biggest surprise like that for me was Talladega Nights. I almost refused to see what looked like such a bad movie but I never laughed so hard

Machete and Machete 2 are great.
