Movies so bad that they're good.

[Guest WrestlingDeacon]

I too love Cobra. I can't believe I forgot it. It wants to be Dirty Harry so hard. I think my favorite part is at the end where they are running through an orange grove in Florida and wind up in a steel mill in Pittsburgh who's only reason for being seems to be to produce open flames. Great one liners too. "I'll blow up this store, man." "Go for it. I don't shop here."

[Guest HollywoodSpikeJenkins]

Sidekicks.

 

 

 

I wanted the bad guys to beat the fuck out of Chuck Norris and that kid. Plus, Winnie was in it.

 

 

Oh, and Ladybugs!

 

Maybe it's just that kid.

[Guest RavishingRickRudo]

The Wizard...

 

How can you hate any movie that is a blatent advertisement? (The Message of the Movie: Nintendo Brings the Family Together)

[Guest IDrinkRatsMilk]

I'd forgotten The Wizard. How can you not love a 90 minute commercial? The best part was I read an interview with Fred Savage in Nintendo Power or some shit when he came out, and he was quoted as saying, "Mario Brothers 3 is the best game ever. I can't wait until it comes out for the Nintendo Entertainment System so I can buy it." Even at like 7 years old, I found it pretty hard to swallow that he would have to a) wait until it came out, and b) pay for it.

[Guest red_file]

Ah yes, The Wizard. The ninety minute comercial for the Power Glove and Super Mario 3. Great scheme.

 

"I love the power glove. It's so bad."

 

And Ladybugs was pretty good. "I tricked this little boy into dressing up like a little girl and playing with me."

[Your Paragon of Virtue 0]

Encino Man is a movie that I still enjoy watching to this day, really don't know why. Brendan Fraser movies are a guilty pleasure for whatever reason.

 

Orgazmo was pretty funny too.

[Guest Nevermortal]

Little Monsters, with Howie Mandel.

 

Its very very cheesy, but at the same time fucking creepy as hell, yet its aimed at Children.

 

C'mon, no Children's movie should feature a demon having his face burnt off.

[Guest BorneAgain]

From the ones that I've actually seen, I'll say Street Fighter the Movie. Incredibly bad movie that makes for great unintentional comedy, and a definite low point in the career of Raul Julia. Sadly, also his last film...

I'm surprised Kotzenjunge hasn't showed up expressing his love for Street Fighter considering his goddess is in it.

[Guest Karnage]

Good Burger!

[LivingLegendGaryColeman 0]

Good Burger!

YES! I loved that movie. I wanted so bad to go see it opening day and I did. I also own the VHS. The DVD I am sure, is in high demand... ah, good times. That came out right as the All That show started going downhill.

[Guest razazteca]

Masters of the Universe featuring everybody's favorite B movie action hero Dolph and everybody's Friend Mrs Cox-Arquette. This also has Billy Bartty in one of his best performances as a dwarf, this time he is a scientist!?!?!

 

UHF IS THE GREATEST MUSIC VIDEO MOVIE EVER MADE [/Tony Schiavonie] Of course this has Billy Bartty in it so you know its going to be good, this time he plays a camera man. And the before they made it big on tv stars of Fran Dressler and Michael Richards. Turtles are natures suction cups, Wheel of Fish, YOU SO STUPID! and other classics are in this movie.

[Guest RavishingRickRudo]

Whoa whoa whoa...

 

Masters of the Universe and UHF weren't bad movies...

 

I mean, Richards should have gotten an Oscar for his performance as the lovable janitor turned tv star. His speech near the end, about never giving up... It inspired me, man. I am the man I am today because of it...

 

And MOTU, you can't get better than that.

 

The Wizard rocked it hard. I mean, Fred Savage having the insight and enlightenment of the Buddha... You just can't get better than that...

[Guest razazteca]

Kristy Alley's evil twin in Masters of the Universe had a good performance but still it a weak film, not as bad as say Garbage Pail Kids but bad. An interdimensional worm hole device confused to be an 80s nu~wave instrament, really as if my NES Power Glove could play Sweet Dreams and teleport me to Greyskull Castle!

[Guest RavishingRickRudo]

Dude, you don't know what you are talking about...

 

Ok, maybe you do

[Guest MD2020]

Ah yes, The Wizard. The ninety minute comercial for the Power Glove and Super Mario 3. Great scheme.

 

"I love the power glove. It's so bad."

"Just keep your Power Glove off her"

 

There was some quote like this in the movie, and I think of it ever time someone mentions the Power Glove.

[Guest razazteca]

Dude, you don't know what you are talking about...

 

Ok, maybe you do

It would make sense to an insommiac

[Guest Youth N Asia]

Almost anything with Fred Savage is so bad it's good. And I own a powerglove! You can't play with it for shit, but it's cool.

 

Anyone remember the commercial for it, where the kid's playing Tysons Punch Out and just punching away and whooping ass...it didn't work like that.

 

And UHF was a pretty bad movie.

[Guest RavishingRickRudo]

I had a Power Glove too..

 

..Piece of fuckin shit.

[Guest Zack Malibu]

not as bad as say Garbage Pail Kids

Bad?

 

The GPK movie fucking RULED! OK, so yeah it's a cheesy take on the cards, and the kids were a little more grotesque looking than they should have been, but still, I love this film. I bootlegged myself a copy a few years back, because it seemed only 1 video store in my state had it. I'm waiting to see if it gets on DVD...there's so much crap out there that this HAS to come out.

[Guest DawnBTVS]

I'll toss in Tank Girl...I dig this movie for some reason. Maybe it's just Lori Petty. Another nomination is Shock Treatment. I LOVE this movie, Jessica Harper was great. I thought she was better then Susan Sarandon in RHPS myself.

[Guest CED Ordonez]

Most memorable moment of The Wizard is when Savage yells to the kid to use the warp zone in SMB3. Even when I was eight I was thinking to myself "How the frick does he know about that if it's a brand new game?"

 

I also loved how the kid fell behind when he repeatedly died by WALKING DIRECTLY INTO ENEMIES! I mean, dammit, you call yourself a gaming wizard yet you run directly into bad guys?

 

Oh, and only one NES peripheral could own the Power Glove: The motherf'n (piece of crap) U-Force.

What about the Power Pad?

[Guest LaParkaMarka]

Anyone ever seen Fantasy Mission Force? Now that is a bad movie, yet it's incredibly amusing just because it's so bizarre and non-sensical.

Was Jackie Chan in this?

 

The Big Brawl and The Protector are 2 of the early 80s movies that tried to introduce Jackie Chan to the USA audience but were just crap. The Big Brawl has Jackie in a time piece where he is in a MMA competition, I think he fights Ox Baker in this one. The Protector has Jackie as a police officier, in a Rush Hour/Police Story type movie but with Danny Aiello as his partner.

[Guest Retro Rob]

MANOS

 

Torgo and the husband have to be two of the greatest characters of all-time in a campy humor kind of way.

[Guest NoCalMike]

Remember when Freddy Krueger used the "evil" power glove, in Freddy's Dead?

[Guest Star Ocean 3]

Street Fighter

 

Wrongfully Accused

 

Beverly Hills Ninja

 

Clue

 

Ready to Rumble

 

Though some of those weren't really that bad, but still good.

[Guest nl5xsk1]

It might be too good of a movie to be considered "bad", but I'd say STRANGE BREW. I think that it's hilarious - even with it's stupid flaws - but you run a major risk telling people it's funny. Too many people have hated it.

[Guest Youth N Asia]

Remember when Freddy Krueger used the "evil" power glove, in Freddy's Dead?

That was great, playing video games with a kid's life and they go and knock the controller out of his hands.

 

Freddy: "You forgot the power glove!"

I think Fantasy Mission Force is a Jimmy Wang Yu film with Jackie in the movie for only ten minutes but all the releases of this movie put Jackie's name and picture all over the cover.
