This is something I've been meaning to do for a while, but I always forget about it until the year is well under way. 

Not this year. 

This year, we start THE BAD MOVIE CALENDAR. 
Every day, post a movie that goes with that day and why it fits that day. 

Some days will naturally be a lot easier than others.  You might have to look up what obscure holidays happened on that day or what happened in world history to find something. Hopefully we can keep this going until the end of the year.

Because to day is the first day of the new year, we start with ...

Bloody New Year!

I have something similar mapped out for weird movies, there may be some overlap.

I'll let you lead but I may have some suggestions if you get stuck.

Apparently January 1st is Public Domain Day. To celebrate the occasion I'll give you

By all means, post 'em when we reach the right days.

January 2nd. 

Asimov celebrates his birthday this day.

Watch a movie based on his work.

Bicentennial Man

Good choice. Today is also the date the Russian play R.U.R. debuted--the play that coined the term "robot." That's why today I'm streaming "Metropolis" on 366 Weird Movies' discord channel at 8 PM (Eastern time). Anyone's free to stop in and watch along. https://discord.com/channels/1011013743796289556/1011013744387694704

You will find that Karel Capek was, in fact, Czech. (I liked his War With The Newts)

Yes, my mistake. (Thanks for the fact-Czech).

If it is any consolation, the basic word is the same in Russian.

Well, a day like today Tolkien was born, so I was about to suggest LORD OF THE RINGS. But since this is a bad movie recommendation thread, let's go with something more bizarre.

January the 3rd is also Greta Thunberg's birthday, you know, that girl who talks about climate change a lot. Let's choose the most scientifically accurate disaster movie ever. Yes, that was a joke:

January 4th is World Braille Day
so watch a movie with a  blind protagonist!

I refuse to accept Blind Fury as a bad movie daily calendar recommendation. I mean, c'mon now ...


it is regarded as one of Rutger Hauer's top 5 best movies  :smile:

Got a better one?

I haven't seen it but this is supposed to be really bad...

I haven't seen it either, but I love the title. 

On January 5th in 1886 "Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde" by Robert Louis Stevenson was published.

I suppose I could have put a good Jekyll and Hyde movie here, but what fun would that be?

On January 6 1939, the Superman daily newspaper strip began

Jan 7th!    It's Nick Cage's birthday!  :buggedout:

(https://i.imgur.com/0tgbDOf.gif) (https://lunapic.com)

Probably THE WICKER MAN remake, then.

Oh no! BAD LIETENANT!

I suggest THE WICKER MAN. This is a bad movie calendar, not a great movie calendar!

A few lesser-known bad-but-fun Cage movies would be JUJITSU or BETWEEN WORLDS.

 ^DRIVE ANGRY is great stupid fun!

Today is Elvis' birthday. [Plug] I'll be hosting a watch party of "Bubba Ho-tep" on my discord channel at 7 PM ET: https://discord.com/channels/1011013743796289556/1011013744387694704

But for a BAD Elvis movie, I vote HARUM SCARUM.

^It's also David Bowie's birthday... We could pick one out today, or wait until Tuesday, when he passed...^

Well, we already have good bad movie for today, so we can save David Bowie's passing until later.

Was Bowie ever in a bad movie? All the movies he appeared in I can think of are good.

I think one or two might be arguably bad, depending on one's perspective...

Guess who with Christopher Lee?

It's January 9th.  That's Bob Denver's birthday and I say made for TV movies count. 

Watch the Castaways on Gilligan's Island.

Never heard of it, but it looks fun.

I wasn't quite sure if you were posting in the right topic at first, but I went and checked.  (January 15th is her birthday, for those of you who don't want to check.)

Today is John Carpenter's birthday! We can celebrate with one of his worst movies, even when I think it's not nearly as bad as people make it out to be.

Colin Clive's birthday! He brought FRANKENSTEIN to life! Those movies with him are great- but think of the putrid pultritude that he begot! What kind of world would we live in if there was not a FRANKENSTIEN ISLAND (1981)?
(https://i.imgur.com/CrKhWCB.gif) (https://lunapic.com)

I remember reading that the ending - where Ray Milland yanks his eyes out and they freeze frame on the sockets - was actually different in concept and the script had Milland scream "I can still see!"  :buggedout:

What kind of world indeed?

I've heard that story myself.

January 21, 1972 was the first Star Trek convention.

January 26 in National Spouses day. 

So why not a Stepfather movie?

(https://i.imgur.com/fRvHe8Ql.jpg)

(I've never actually seen this movie, but this is one of those covers that used to freak me out when I saw it in the videostore as a kid.)

^ It's a modern classic! I loved it.

I've always been hesitant to watch it because I already have such an impression of it that I didn't want to disapoint myself. 

However if people here say it's worth it, I might just have to finally bite the bullet and see it.

January 27 is International Holocaust Remembrance Day

Never forget what the Nazis made us endure.

Got a couple of options here.  Its the anniversary of the Fukushima Nuclear Power plant disaster, which was part of the inspiration for Shin Godzilla.
Its the day Romeo and Juliet got married.
Its World Plumbing Day, but I just posted something about Mario. 
Side note.  With it being Allison Hayes birth month, and using Attack of the 50ft Woman for International Women's Day, then Mar10 day and World Plumbing Day-we've got a  lot of overlap this month.

I thought about putting the Leonardo DeCaprio movie here, but that's too close to being a good movie.  How how about Titanic II.  You don't even have to watch the movie to know it's not any good.  Just the fact that it exists says enough.

I was interpreting this calendar as being for bad movies, but looking back at Chainsaw's post he just says "a movie that goes with that day," not a bad movie. So E.T.'s fine. I'm still personally going to try to pick bad movies.

This is a real movie? Wow  :bouncegiggle:

On a sidenote, I always thought it was hilarious that any celeb that is against Trump is listed as somebody who has visited the Epstein Island and/or is part of Hollywood's secret Cannibal Restaurant.

Not only that, it's part of a series. Check out some of the director's other titles: https://www.imdb.com/filmosearch/?explore=title_type&role=nm1802130&ref_=filmo_ref_job_typ&sort=user_rating,desc&mode=detail&page=1&job_type=director&title_type=movie (https://www.imdb.com/filmosearch/?explore=title_type&role=nm1802130&ref_=filmo_ref_job_typ&sort=user_rating,desc&mode=detail&page=1&job_type=director&title_type=movie)

I've actually seen one and it's terrible. It's lame video-game style animation with his own bizarre Illuminati mythology that I think is supposed to be satire, but you can't really tell for sure.

June 16 1816
Lord Byron read Fantasmagoriana to his house guests and challenged them to write a ghost story, leading  Mary Shelley to write Frankenstein.

July 4th is of course Independence Day.

July 5th is a day perhaps equally important. It was the day the Bikini debuted.

I had some fun writing a review of that for our site 😊😊

July 9 is Fashion Day. 

Honestly, it might be worth it's own topic to come up with some of the worst costumes and outfits in movies. 

And if somebody wants to do that, more power to them.  In the mean time, I'm just going to post this one picture from Staying Alive.

July 10 is Don't Step on a Bee Day (shouldn't that be everyday?  Are there days when stepping on a bee is encouraged?)
Anyway...

(https://i.imgur.com/yr2Jz0Hl.jpg)
I think Invasion of the Bee Girls suits our purposes here.

July 11 is Bowlder's Day, a day to recognize (not celebrate) censorship.

Okay, I was busy the last few days.  Let's get us back on track.

July 13  is Embrace Your Geekness Day

(I had considered using the Bigfoot porn movie The Geek for this spot, but it didn't have any nice covers for me to use.)


July 14  is Mac and Cheese Day!
That's almost the title for this movie!  And it's certainly cheesy.

July 15 this Gummi Worm Day!

but you can settle for some real worms if you like.
(https://i.imgur.com/pmddF4Ll.jpg)



...


ALSO, while looking up the date, I found out that it's both National Tapioca Pudding Day and Saint Swithin’s Day.

I had always thought National Tapioca Pudding day was just a running joke of the Garfield cartoon, and Saint Swithin's Day was just a joke from the Simpsons.  Not only are they both real days, but they're the same day!  Crazy.

July 16  is National Personal Chef Day!

July 25th is Hire a Veteran Day


(https://i.imgur.com/vEuyRlzl.jpg)

If you can find them, then maybe you can hire them...

On a sidenote, I was always wondering about these "Days". Who approves these "Days" ? Is there some kind of registry?
The majority of these "Days" always felt like they were created by bored out of their mind office workers sitting in cubicles in the 1990s.

Most of these "Days" are beyond stupid. One of the most idiotic "Days" must be "Speak Like a Pirate Day". Why?
Again, it sounds like a day bored office workers are looking forward to.

Most of them are dreamed up by ad execs, sometimes charities, or viral internet campaigns. There are a couple of websites that started collecting them. They can be stupid but fun.

July 26 is Jason Statham's birthday.

The first TV commercial aired on July 1, 1941. Bulova Watches paid for the 10-second spot, shown before a baseball game between the Brooklyn Dodgers and Philadelphia Phillies at Ebbets Field.

So to celebrate that(?) how about a movie that's nothing BUT one big long commercial?

Someone needs to fill in August 6 & 7, but I'll do today, August 8: international cat day!

There are many horror movies featuring cats---CAT PEOPLE, CAT'S EYE, A HAUNTED TURKISH BATHHOUSE---but I'll go with the most horrifying one of all:

OK. Today, Aug. 9th, is the peak of the Perseid meteor shower.

Andrew's "skull" review: http://www.badmovies.org/movies/alicerest/ (http://www.badmovies.org/movies/alicerest/) (It wasn't good, but it probably wasn't THAT bad).

huh. 

I distinctively remember looking dates for the 18th and 20th.  I even have the movies saved into my Imgur account.

I guess they didn't post somehow... weird. 


Anyway, we don't need the 19th anymore, but for the 20th I had Bacon Lover's Day,

(https://i.imgur.com/lH5AkRbl.jpg)

(if nobody else jumps in with the 21 and 22 I'll get us caught back up tonight.)

Just to get caught up, Aug 21 was National Senior Citizens Day.

^ I thought that a good movie!

Yeah, I agree. We've added some good movies. I couldn't think of a really bad senior citizen movie, though I didn't think real hard. Do you have an alternate suggestion?

Well, lt me toss in Aug 22 real quick. 

Which is Tooth Fairy Day.

August 24 1891 – Thomas Edison applied for his patent the motion picture projector (kinetograph). It was approved on August 31.

You can watch the Edison Company version of Frankenstein.

In fact, you can watch it right now.  It's public domain and it's really short.

Homebodies from 1974: a very strange film indeed.

I saw it about 20 years ago on TV and went 😳

Aug 25 is Kiss and Make Up Day

... I don't think this is what they had in mind but ...

Cri'sake

Eric Powell, writer and creator of The Goon comic series actually did  a comic biography of Ed Gein called Did you hear what Eddie Gein done? Got it from the library and would recommend to people  who like true crime stories.  Its horrifying and fascinating at the same time.

Aug 28th National Dream Day

Aug 30 is Frankenstein Day. 
Seriously.

Aug 31 1888 – Mary Ann Nichols was murdered; the first of Jack the Ripper’s confirmed victims.

Sept 2 1666 The Great Fire of London
(https://i.imgur.com/4c6oZFel.png)

The Internet is wrong, the worst Frankenstein movie is FRANKENSTEIN'S BLOODY NIGHTMARE!

FRANKENSTEIN ISLAND is a great choice though, because it's a wacky, enjoyable bad movie.

Sept 3 is
Bowling League Day!

This year, today (9/4) is Labor Day. I didn't realize this, but Hollywood apparently likes to dump their stinkers on Labor Day Weekend. Here's an article: https://melmagazine.com/en-us/story/oh-no-youre-a-terrible-labor-day-movie

Out of these, I'd probably choose KNOCK OFF. (THE WICKER MAN is fun but doesn't feel much like a Labor Day movie).

(https://m.media-amazon.com/images/M/MV5BNmU5NTVjZTEtYzNiZS00NjM2LWI3ZTAtZWExYjY0ZmUxNDM1XkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyMjUzOTY1NTc@._V1_.jpg)

(If this were a Good Movie Calendar, the clear choice would be "The Menu")

Sep 19 is International Talk like a Pirate Day

I'm not going to do that.  I will suggest the movie that brings together Cheech and Chong with Monty Python.  (Far more Python than Cheech though.)

(https://i.imgur.com/EGtbyhwl.jpg)

I have a little story about talk like a Pirate day.

Around the time the third Pirates of the Caribbean movie was released I noticed one of my FB friends was, well, talking like a pirate. This went on for a few years and quite frankly, it wasn't funny or cute, just distracting. So I said "you must really like those Pirates of the Caribbean movies" and she said she never seen any of those movies. I asked why she was talking like Johnny Depp in those Pirate flicks, she then told me about the talk like a Pirate day.

I thought she was joking but she linked me to the wikki page. That's when I first learned about these "days".

So yeah, I actually know somebody who used to talk (in this case, type) like a pirate on talk like a pirate day. She doesn't anymore though.

Sept 20

Ninja at the top right looks like he trod in something nasty  :buggedout:

Out of curiosity, I searched YouTube videos for this year's International Ninja Day and Popping Corn Day. I found zero 2023 Ninja Day videos, and maybe one 2023 popping corn day. I didn't see any in my Facebook feed either. I guess they are celebrating those days on X and Instagram? Didn't check though.

Shame really.  The internet goes wild over talk like a pirate day, but nobody wants to celebrate the ninja?  Just doesn't seem fair.

Trust me to find something like this  :wink:

And with that... we draw out topic to a close.  It's been an interesting experiment.  Didn't quite go the way I wanted it to, but what the hell. 

I feel like there should've been a challenge to make it more fun and interesting. Allowing bad movies only would've been a good start.

Adding good movies didn't work for me at all, unless for a separate Good Movie Daily Calendar.

Neat idea, but randomly all over the place, which made it less appealing to participate more than I wanted.

Fair enough. 

Although even with good movies, there were some days where it was hard to find anything that matched up. 

I would have preferred more bad movies, but think it's pretty amazing that we finished this at all! It's not as easy as it looks.

Congratulations on keeping it going for the full year and getting it finished.

Seconded!

Thanks guys.
