Wait what??? Some kind of gene experimenting gone wrong?
Came to say this, you beat me to it. Definitely The VelociPastor!
The original Mortal Kombat movie.
That is a great movie.
If you want a shitty fight movie watch the Street Fighter movie. Van Damme, Kylie Mongue, and the dad in Addams family...I mean what more do you want.
For me itβs so bad that itβs good.
That MK sound track still gets me hype.
What about Streetfighter?
How dare you call hackers terrible.
HACK THE PLANET!
Lol true. Itβs actually one of my wifeβs favorites!
Hudson Hawk. Goofy heist movie with Bruce Willis who plays a cat burglar who is hired by a rich dude to steal several pieces of art which contain the secret to transmuting lead into gold.
Bunny!... Ball, Ball!
Waterworld. It's so terrible but at the same time I love it.
Dry land is not a myth!
Down Periscope
It's awful and the jokes are terrible but at the end of the day, so endearing.
Moonfall. So where to start...
It was a big budget action flick, with sci-fi mixed in. Now don't get me wrong, I can suspend my disbelief just fine - you want to tell me that a zombie can rip a mountain in two, so be it. But the scientist in me just couldn't get past a couple things. It's an absolute blast of a movie, with great visuals. Mild spoilers below.
They successfully hide from gravity behind a concrete barrier. A space shuttle launches from the ground through a tsunami (literally in the water). Just absolutely bonkers. But so, so fun.
Manos the Hands of Fate. Better with MST3K or Rifftrax commentary.
That's a classic!
How shitty are we talking? Because there's, like, Super Mario Bros. (1993), which is a movie I liked that most people didn't, and then there's Santa Claus Conquers the Martians (1964), or The Corpse Grinders (1971), which I had fun watching but are actually terrible movies.
Those are all great suggestions. Super Mario Bros. is a classic!
Hackers! i never saw it as a kid but my wife decided to go see it on a whim when there was a showing for the 20th anniversary and we immediately fell in love with it. It's simultaneously terrible and brilliant at the same time. we now watch it every couple months. HACK THE PLANET!
edit: i should probably fully read the original post before commenting
Kung Pow. It's so bad it loops back to being good.
They said bad movie, not cinematic masterpiece.
Probably Sucker Punch. Has nothing to do with a crush I may or may not have on Jena Malone, and exclusively to do with the straight-played, over-the-top ridiculousness of the entire film.
Yes, I see your edit.
But I'm still angry. I will try to forgive you but it's gonna take work.
Rubber - A sentient tire rolls around causing destruction.
Iron Sky - Moon Nazis
An absolute GEM of is Dead Alive from Peter Jackson. Just incredibly bonkers and the goriest movie ever made (lawnmowers ftw). Highly recommend it for 80s campy fun.
Top secret with val kilmer
Kung fu hustle and shaolin soccer are also good.
The Day After Tomorrow. It is exquisitely bad. In the third act, they run out of ways to make weather the bad guy and randomly drop in a pack of wolves to attack everyone. Itβs a hilariously entertaining disaster movie
The 90's version of Island of Doctor Moreau is absolutely fucking terrible, and absolutely fucking fantastic. The story behind its production is also really wild and there's a documentary about it called Lost Soul: The Doomed Journey of Richard Stanley's Island of Dr. Moreau that I can recommend.
Kurt Russell's Soldier is also one of my favorite bad movies
Samurai Cop (1991) This movie is just so incredibly bad, it's fantastic !
If I like it, it's not terrible (plus I agree with /u/netburnr).
That said: G.O.R.A. and Accion Mutante are great campy Sci-Fi movies. The latter is a bit more gory.
Fukushima 50 - the overacting was hilarious at times. Knowing it's based on a real story I felt bad at times for laughing so much.
new neil breen film should be dropping soon so i'm holding out for that
Check out Dracula 3000 if you are looking to laugh at a vampire horror movie featuring Coolio in space.
House Shark is a cinematic masterpiece and I'd watch it again anytime
Big Trouble in Little China
Obvious answer has to be The Room.
But I also love to watch mindless action movies which are by definition usually fairly shitty. Disaster movies, even better.
Rewatched Skyscraper with Dwayne The Rock Johnson recently and it was exactly as ridiculous as I remembered it being.
Any of the Twilight movies.
Ok, now if you are looking for a movie that is all style and low on substance, may I suggest: Repo! The Genetic Opera.
Itβs a very 2000βs rock opera with pretty good visuals. Itβs got a really fun vibe and very goth aesthetics. There isnβt much depth but you will probably be signing along by the end of it. REEEEEEPO MAN! REEEEPO man!
Maybe not favorite, but Zombie Strippers was a lot better than it should have been. They should have also kept the deleted scenes, like the stripper logic.
