DVDs that suck, but you love them anyway!

[mpompey]

After reading the latest rant against War of the Worlds (2005), so many people with different takes on the movie. I wondered about some of the titles in my collection. So I figured I'd ask the group.

What movies do you have in your collection, that you know up front suck, but you love them anyway. I'm not talking about difference of opinion between you and someone else, I mean movies you know are bad, but you can't help loving them.

I'll kick it off:

Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea (1961, with rubber shark and octopus)
The Wraith (That's right, with Charlie Sheen)
Reign of Fire (C'mon, dragons that eat ash?!)
Jeepers Creepers 2 (Just look at it, how can you not love a movie called Jeepers Creepers ...2!)

LMAO. My wife cannot tolerate Starship Troopers and I could never figure out why until I read your post. I forgot she HATES Denise Richards! I don't know who has a more attractive mouth; her or Maria Bartiromo from CNBC. Yes, I DO have too much time on my hands.

the cone head's with dan akroyd.

 

[racquetman]

The Beastmaster - Tanya Robert's boobies

Time Bandits - hilariously bad

 

[Tomorrow]

Dark Star

Really stupid, but I guess that's what makes it loveable. Funny, funny movie with a beachball alien.

(It was like the graduate school project for John Carpenter and Dan O'Bannon. They wrote it, acted in it, directed it, produced it, etc.)

 

[mike c]

monster's ball (or was that monster balls)

 

[Nick250]

Road House

Elvira: Mistress of the Dark (okay, the boobies are magnificent, but I think the movie is hilarious)

The Adventures of Ford Fairlaine (Andrew Dice Clay -- the king of bad taste, although he's actually a bit tame in this one)

Basket Case (low budget horror/thriller about a guy's twin brother who's kept in a small wicker basket)

Spice World (completely goofball, corny, cheesy fun . . . with five babes!)

Batman (1966) (just plain awful -- how could anyone take Batman seriously after seeing this -- but the POWs and the BIFFs and the ZZZAPs make it all worthwhile)

Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins . . . (no worse movie in the history of cinema -- but watching Fred Ward learn from a kung fu master is hilarious)

cheers,

Another great movie of this sort is No Retreat No Surrender where the ghost of Bruce Lee helps some kid learn martial arts. The best thing about this movie is that Jean-Claude Van Damme gets his *** kicked by this kid at the end. Awesome!!

 

[Naves74]

Road House

Now that takes the cake. I love and own that movie and it is horrible.

 

[Jack Hammer]

C.h.u.d.

Cannabalistic Humanoid Underground Dwellers, which is what bums turn into when you store toxic radioactive waste in sewer pipes. Man, I love that movie.

Got to back up the vote for Batman (1966), another classic I own.

BTW, I actually think Starship Troopers is a good movie, just severely underrated and unappreciated by others.

Don't forget Plan 9 from Outer Space, a must see movie that is so horribly bad you can't help but laugh.

 

[j_garcia]

Hate to say it, but I liked The Wraith too.

Repo Man
Donnie Darko

Wasn't it Chuck Norris's ghost?
