I tend to steer away from terrible (Not in the respected "Bad" category) so I cannot really say. What are yours? Starcrash?

"Starcrash" - You have to watch it to believe it...

I watched the torpedo's clip on this site and, believe me, I have no intention of watching it.

Sorry Jack, but I don´t understand you.

This site is badmovie.org - "bad" like "low budget/senseless/bad taste/crap", just look at the site´s reviews.

A real badmovie-fan would never say:
"I watched the torpedo's clip on this site and, believe me, I have no intention of watching it."

I think you should watch out for something like gore.com or horrorpunxonacid.org or whatever...

I only like fun or enjoyable Bad Movies. Or deliberately terrible bad movies. I have yet to watch an absolute s**t bag of a movie, which is why I might watch one of the Boll Weevil's movies soon enough.

So, technically, I don't really watch terrible films. I mainly watch B-Movies, or respected ones that I enjoy (see; The Bourne Identity/Supremacy, JP 1, 2 and 3, Mission: Impossible, Titanic, Braindead, LotR, etc.)


I am an unusual creation. REALLY unusual. I can't explain what I like/don't like.

There was some Japanese movie that came out right after Star Wars.  It was pretty much a direct rip off.  Something about throwing seeds into the winds of space, and the seeds came to land on various planets, and if you got a seed you were destined to help the defeated people take back their empire.  It was awful.  There was a regular sailing ship that was flying through space.  They couldn't afford light sabres, so I think they just used regular swords.  Two extremely obnoxious guys who liked to race their spaceships were the main characters.

I've never seen Starcrash, but I have seen Battle Beyond The Stars http://badmovies.org/movies/battlebeyond/index.html a few times, that was pretty bad. I posted about The Return before http://www.badmovies.org/bbs/read.php?f=2&i=81058&t=81058 , there's kind of a lightsaber thing in that.

My friends and I watched Starship Troopers out of boredom last night so that's what comes to mind...so bad

"you kill bugs good"

Though it doesn't really rip off Star Wars I remember parents thinking it was gonna be like Star Wars and taking young kids to the theaters...those kids were in for a shock.

Maria Paula,

you mean "Manos" is "the turkish star wars"?

Sounds interesting...

I don´t know much turkish films but what I know is, that they often sing in them.

Do they sing in "the turkish star wars", too.

If they do, please, I hope not that bad like Leia in the SW Holiday Special !

The Turkish films are bad movie paradise.  I've heard the Turkish Exorcist is also a hoot.  

I actually liked Battle Beyond the Stars back when I saw it in the theater but even as a kid I could see that it was a Star Wars ripoff.  Funny thing is that these days I'd probably be more inclined to enjoy Battle Beyond the Stars than Star Wars.

Lame, I hate it when other countries can rip off movies so easily.

*India, Turkey, bastards.

I love that, it's like you can just insert Spiderman or whatever, whenever you feel like it, and you can make him a serial killer! Searced for "turkish star wars" on imdb and got this: Dünyayi kurtaran adam http://imdb.com/title/tt0182060/

One of the minor disappointments of my film viewing life is that I have only seen clips of "Starcrash" or "Turkish Star Wars". Unfortunately I have seen "Space Raiders". I would like to see "Message from Space" again.

It's fantasy rather than scifi, but I've always considered "Krull" a SW ripoff.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.
