Bad Movies That You Can’t Help But Love

I’m looking for the “reel” train wreck of a movie that you can’t help but stare at. You know it’s bad, people have condemned you for liking it but you can’t draw your attention away. Give me your guilty pleasures, tell me your worst movie habits, I can take it but don’t forget to tell me why you are in love.

STREETS OF FIRE

Directed by Walter Hill (Warriors, 48 Hours).
Starring Michael Pare’
Elizabeth Daily (Does the voice of Buttercup on the PowerPuff Girls. She alone has the power to make me love this terrible film)
Deborah Van Valkenburgh (Three’s A Crowd)
Rick Moranis
Willam DaFoe
Amy Madigan
God awful film. The movie opens up with the blurb that this is a Rock N Roll Fable. That it is set in “another place and “another time” and you know damn well this could not have taken place on earth. Everybody speaks tough and acts tough (even nerdy Rick Moranis).This movie wants you to know it’s tough. Leather fetishes, neon-lit streets, oh and there is plenty of fire. Did I mention this movie is tough?
The saving grace. The story isn’t bad but the music is wonderful (own the soundtrack I do). Music by Meatloaf composer Jim Steinman

The Descent. Horrible movie in every possible way, possibly because the only male character dies within the first 5 minutes and the rest is a bunch of paranoid women going insane while ducking cave zombies. Bad acting, bad plot, bad effects, bad suspense, bad sentence structure (Oh wait that's me.) I had to finish watching it because it was so God Awful.

As far as movies I actually like that people tend not too, Kevin Costner in "The Postman." I like it, though I've only met one other person who also likes it. (That would be my older brother.)

Krull (1983) - It is so god-awful bad, but I admit it was a guilty pleasure throughout the '80s.

The Toxic Avenger (1985) - My brother and I like to mimic one of the opening scenes in an aerobics studio. Bad bad bad bad BAD! It ROCKS!!

The Wraith (1986) - Steve and I have this movie on DVD and will watch it every now and then for our guilty pleasure. My favorite part is at the end when Charlie Sheen drives off, and his friend "Billy" realizes that Sheen was his dead brother all along........."Jake! Jake! JAMIE!!!!!!"

And the mother of all bad movies that I absolutely love:

Flash Gordon (1980) - I loved Topol playing Dr. Zarkov and part of his opening scene: "Check the angular projection of the moon!" And a movie that not only has Topol, Brian Blessed, Timothy Dalton, and Max Von Sydow in it but also has Queen doing the music? This is the kind of bad movie that deserves a medal.




Peace,
Mystic

Oh, I agree with the awesomeness. It's awesome camp, though, darling. Remember the quicksand? :D

I'll give you some props though for defending a movie with the incomparable Liam Neeson.

And the flash Gordon theme song is my ringtone lol.

Oooh, I just remembered another one. I haven't seen it in a long time, but does anyone remember "Hawk the Slayer"?

It was 1980 or '81. Jack Palance was in it, too. I would rate this as being so bad it's good. :)




Peace,

I was a big fan of Spawn when it hit the movie theaters. When I was a kid, I was also a big fan of the orginal Ninja Turtle movies.

Looking back on both now, I can see that they were both bad movies. :cover:
