Found this to be quite cheesy when I first saw it, but grown to like this ever since.
Pretty much 90% of the horror movies out there :lol:
Sinister 2 is up there with the worst but it’s definitely more entertaining picking apart the dumb writing, incessant plot holes and of course you can’t have a bad film without bad acting and ghost children that you actually want dead by the end of the movie.
Evolution (2001)
I vaguely remember seeing some episodes of the animated series based on the film when I was younger. I liked the intro at the time.
3 weeks later...
I still love Evolution, it's great fun and was never meant to be anything other light-hearted fluff :cheer:
Plan B From Outer Space is unintentionally the worst film of all-time, not letting minor things like the death of the star in real life bother it, and so bad they made a drama film about the making of the film which was fab. I wouldnt want to watch it again though, but I would watch the drama about it.
An excruciatingly bad film that I have sat through more than once is Toomorrow, from 1970, Olivia Newton-John's first film, about a pop band in London that gets involved with aliens and a space ship. So bad it was quickly withdrawn from release, found it's way onto RAF base cinemas and then was hidden from the world for decades, unreleased. I saw it as a kid, and it had Olivia, pop music, and space ships. How could I not buy the DVD when it finally came out? It's. Just. Awful!
See if you can get through 9 minutes :lol:
Plan 9 is a classic :lol: When a film starts with the line “We are all interested in the future because we are all going there” and then gets steadily worse it can’t be anything but entertaining. That must be why I have actually seen it more than once. As you say, the death of the star, Bela Lugosi, didn’t help - particularly as they didn’t have the budget to reshoot his parts. Even so, replacing him with someone significantly taller and who had to hide his face wasn’t the most subtle way of getting round the problem!
The biopic, Ed Wood, starring Johnny Depp, was a rather more accomplished piece of film-making.

Maybe those Sharknado films.
Pearl Harbor and Titanic are both awful, overlong and poorly written drivel that happen to contain astonishingly excellent 30 minute action sequences in them.
To be honest though there's plenty -
Off the top of my head -
Godfather Part 3
The Hobbit trilogy
Flash Gordon is trash but fun
Dune is a glorious failure
Batman V Superman (although the Ultimate cut is ok)
Suicide Squad is a bit of a mess but Harley is perfect
Batman And Robin is hilarious if you have enough booze
Alien 3 is a great film spoiled by the studio
A lot of the Bond films
All of the Rocky films after 3 (Not Creed though)
Almost anything with a Predator in it
All of the Scream, Halloween, Elm Street sequels
The Star Wars prequels too. Episodes 1 & 2 are both pretty bad films by all standard measures
Almost every Godzilla film
I could go on for ages.
Even bad films have good qualities (except the Transformers films, they're irredeemable)

me and my friends watch this semi-regularly because it's our favourite "so bad it's good" movie. This scene always cracks me up because of just how bad the acting is here:

Jaws 3-D (1983)
This movie isn't perfect but it's a fun watch for me.

I don't think it's bad acting, it's just character talking down to that old woman :lol:
The Room
You're lucky I remembered that Brie Larson's 'Room' doesn't have a definite article in front of it..
