Those are bad movies, but not quite so bad they're good. A good bad movie genuinely tries, but utterly fails at everything. Scripting, editing, acting, cinematography... everything. Yet still manages to provide great (unintentional) comedic entertainment. It's its own genre. Troll 2 is widely considered to be one of the best SBIG movies of all time by many, tho Neil Breen has been making a mark lately, lol.

Well if that's criteria then Jaws 4 is it then. When that shark roars like a fucking lion I piss my pants! But that movie is so bad I can't watch it, but the shark roaring like a lion is just comedy gold.
Anyone watch Chris Stuckman Jaws 4 Hilariosity pissed my pants!

These probably don’t qualify as SBIG by those standards, but I’d nominate Rocky Horror and The Fifth Element.

I think Jaws 4 counts! That lion roar is ridiculous! Most of that movie is ridiculous.

I think you got it. Yeah, Rocky Horror and TFE aren't completely inept and have moments of real competence. Watch the very fist video I posted and you'll get the idea. You don't even have to watch it all the way through.

Exactly! I'd argue that MST2K had a huge hand popularizing it as a genre.

Whatever do you mean, Jaws 4 is a masterpiece. Ellen Brody has a psychic connection with the shark, the shark follows them from New England to the Bahamas and then there is Michael Cain who tried multiple times to crash his plane and kill people.

It tries hard, but it's so bad at everything that it's fun(ny) to watch! You got the idea now!

and the winner of the best worst movie goes to Ishtar, the most underrated movie ever.

There's a youtube channel that does SBIG movie reviews called Fanboy Flicks, "Weird Movies With Mark". He reviews them and lets you know the good-bad from the just plain bad-bad. The really is something special and entertaining about good-bad movies. A big part of the formula is the unintentional part of it. Some bad movies become self aware and try to cash in with a sequel, but it never seems to work. It's just not the same magic when they become self aware and lean into it instead of being completely unintentional.

That's what makes Neil Breen kinda stand out. He has several movies now, all equally bad at everything, but never stops trying to be serious and "have a message". His movies are all so bad, but so much fun to laugh at. From the stupid stories, to the cheap green screen (Breen screen, lol) effects, bad dialogue, bad acting and obvious use of stock footage.

I think Ishtar does qualify as a so bad it's good movie, but it does flirt with being just plain so bad it's bad, lol.

There’s a fine line between the cult movie favorites and others that are bad-but-good.
Attack of the Killer Tomatoes, Attack of the 50 ft Woman, Manos (to be certain), They Saved Hitlers Brain… so many in the cult category.
But then you have campy movies too… and that’s where I put fifth element, Buffy, Earth Girls Are Easy, and the like.
Did a lot of all of those movies in High School and College.
Oof.
Some of those movies are just so bad… I want my time back!

 

[Hetfield]

Well I think even though I love M. Night Shamalan that "the happening" fits. Very goofy acting, very goofy direction, very goofy story, very goofy storyline, a mistake where you see the "boom mic" I guess it's called. There were some eerie moments and it had promise but just went south.
And then this line "cheese and crackers". The fucking hot dog guy!
