awful movies that are ace!

“And it is still true, no matter how old you are -- when you go out into the world, it is best to hold hands and stick together.”
Cause I'm going away to Wales until Wednesday I've been packing some movies incase the weather is awful. And it got me to thinking about awful movies that were soo bad that they were really entertaining.
Have you ever seen the beastmaster? That's awful but sooooo funny. There's a black panther in that movie but if you look closely you can actually see stripes. So what? They spray painted a tiger to look like a panther?!? Wasn't a tiger impressive enough? Why didn't they say the main character had a tiger *giggling*
Phantasm. My mum was petrified of this movie when she was a kid so when I was old enough she made me watch it because she wanted to show me how scary it was. We'll there's this one point where I had to stop the video because I was laughing so hard I honestly couldn't breath. There's this severed finger in a box that a boy takes to shoe his dad but the finger being evil has transformed into a demonic fly. This fly looks like it had Bern created by a two year old it seemed to be a ball of black masking tape scrunched up with two red lightbulbs for eyes and a big paper plate cut out toothy grin. It flew. Around the room as they tried to cram it in the waste disposal oh my goodness brilliantly awful
Ok so enlighten me. Awful movies that are brilliant I'm sure I'll think of more as the day progresses. give me recommendations Kay :)

So on that note, here's a short list of other delightfully crappy movies that really stick out in my mind... ones that are just so shitty you can't help but like them.
Mortal Kombat
Hackers
Suburban Commando
UHF (Not crappy, but certainly entertaining!)
Give it a watch if you can, I found it an entertaining experience.
Toxic Avenger 1, 2, 3, and 4
Sgt. Kabukiman NYPD
The Cinema Snob Movie
Midnight Heat
anything by The Asylum Films gets a good laugh
Solarbabies
All I know is I likes me some Constantine. I mean it's got Rachel Weisz in it being all prettiful. How can I not like? x3
I also like 50 first dates even though everypony else gags at it.
What about Time Bandits? That's pretty atrocious. xD
then there are scores of amazingy entertaining funny but terrible Japanese horrors like 'The Machine Girl', Tokyo Gore Police, etc etc lols
Still a pretty comical movie though.
Enjoy ;)
Troll 2 is another classic, also the Documentary about it Best Worst Movie - is actually more entertaining hehe
finally the crowning achievement of bad movies, Birdemic - this has to be seen to be believed.
Slap shoot it also something, not that much the the original version, but many american version becaume clasic here in Quebec becaus ther translation in french was so bad that they make them all so ridicule, this one was particuly stupid and funny
I've seen my share of bad movies, and some that are bad but in a good way. Like the old Evil Dead movies and 80s horror movie House. Some truly bad movies would be Bio Dome, In the Mouth of Madness, Troll 2, Langoliers, Birdemic! Shock and Terror (there's a mighty good Rifftrax of this one), Mac and Me, The Room, Son of the Mask, and Howard the Duck. X3
BioDome... I know ... it's ... ... yeah it hurts but I think i watched it for Lori Petti
Some not bad but underated choices;
Disney's Hunchback of Notre Dame really under-rated and really scary in places.
Monsters, Oh gosh i LOVE this film, almost NOTHING happens in it for ages and it's got so many very clever technical things in it (lots of digital CGI you don't even notice)
You're welcome :3.
It's not old, came out sometime in 2012, but It's just....well they definitely tried too hard with waaaayyyy too small of a budget xD
Oh, and "I'm not Jesus mommy"
It's not old as well, but damn. I watched the preview first before I watched the film, an I have never laughed harder in my life. So I bought it
Hop, The Time Machine (2002), We're Back! A Dinosaur's Story, The Prehysteria Trilogy, The Cat in the Hat, Ferngully, Quest for Camelot.
You may also want to watch some old giant monster movies. What makes those movies bad is men romancing with women they hardly know. These include: The Black Scorpion, Them!, Tarantula, Earth vs. the Spider (1958), The Deadly Mantis, 20 Million Miles from Earth (also colourised).
King of the Zombies
Krull is a Cliché Storm- heroic prince must rescue princess from dire evil, has to collect a powerful weapon/MacGuffin in order to defeat said evil, collects a Rag-Tag Bunch Of Misfits along the way- but just because you've heard this music before doesn't mean ya can't have fun dancin' to the beat.
The Last Starfighter isn't a complete trainwreck- hell, it features Robert Preston as an alien version of Professor Harold Hill. But some of the acting is hammy enough to make the viewing of this 1980's sci-fi romp something of a guilty pleasure.
Those are my recommendations.
The Legend of Zelda (Friggin' hate musicals)
Asassin's Creed: Embers (And no, I'm not crazy)
thats what comes to mind right away
if shows count my little pony newborn cuteys (known as g 3.75) its 2 ten minute episodes of awful spoiler alert the mouths move in one and not the other
The Wizard
The Legend of Billie Jean
Shark Attack 1-3(though have not seen one and can not even find it to watch it), there entertaining to a point but not a great movie set. I did like the Jaws set.
There are many other shark movies, most I like
Also if your into the Scary Movie set(not a fan, but my husband likes them, yes they have comedy in them, just to me there a bit lame)
Planet 51
Gem! Do you have Cars movie?
Do you have Kung Fu Panda DVD?
Is movie Clue on DVD?
Battleship (Yes is a movie).
Also I liked the Beastmaster, the the squeals were not that great.
It by no means a great movie, tho it is funny to see for its B-rated-ness.
If you want to see a really bad movie watch The never Ending Story part 3.
The first 2 were good, but the 3rd Disney got a hold of it and its well, not sure what to say.
Also I seen above someone mention The Last Starfighter.
The main reason for this movie is its made from the 80s tho all space scenes
are computer done. For its time that was a great feat.
You should see Spacehunter Adventures in the Forbidden Zone.
B-rated but fun to see for its cheesyness.
Also it was one of Molly Ringwalds first film roles.(if you even heard of her)
The Cat In The Hat
Alf
Super Mario Bros
Manos: The Hands of Fate
To name a couple.
