People laugh at different things, one persons pain is another persons comedy. For example, I know bad movie lovers who think Hercules (1983) is hilarious. I think it's just bad with very little redeeming values, at least for me.

my pick would definitely be Frankenstein's Castle of Freaks 1974
it's SO BAD its FUNNY!

^ Sweet Satan. That movie. I had it in a big box vhs clamshell I bought at the flea market. I don't know where it went to. That was in like 1995. That's ok. They play it free on Tubi every day.
The caveman guy , ya know- the one in the picture- was billed as Boris Lugosi! No s**t!
He was also in some movie called the BEAST IN HEAT. His real name is Salvatore Baccaro.
Check out his IMDB credits! Mamma Mia!

This is supposed to be shocking! I thought it was gut busting stupid!!
http://youtu.be/YNhdXYh8HOM (http://youtu.be/YNhdXYh8HOM)
Micheal Dunn- the little guy- is a fantastic actor. He co- starred in lotsa movies!
He was in Star Trek in 1968!
http://youtu.be/7s91FugPNyw (http://youtu.be/7s91FugPNyw)
I'll second The Room (2003), Showgirls (1995), Space Mutiny (1988), Mega Piranha (2010), Blood Feast (1963), The Apple (1980), Caged Fury (1990), Night Train to Terror (1985), Nine Deaths of the Ninja (1985), Maniac (1934), Plan 9 From Outer Space (1959), Glen or Glenda (1953), Blood Freak (1972).
Add some personal favorites: The Brain that Wouldn't Die (1962), Dracula v. Frankenstein (1971), The Forbidden Dance (1990), The Horrors of Spider Island (1960), The Adventures of Hercules (1985), Hard Ticket to Hawaii (1987), Hell Squad (1986), Dungeonmaster [Ragewar] (1984), Ninja Champion (1985)... I'll stop there.
^ ALL of those, at least the ones I seen, and I reckon I seen 90 % of those, only some make me laff. Most I just stare at in drop jaw awe.
.PLAN 9 will make me laff like I was watching the 3 Stooges. It never fails. Just like the Stooges.
.NIGHT TRAIN TO TERROR (1985) is amazingly stupid! What's with the dancers??? But it's got Cameron Mitchell! Who must have been amazingly hard up for money! Actually, I think the segment of his part came from another movie...the 1980 CATACLYSM! I reckon he was hard up for money then too.

BEAST IN HEAT. Now that looks BAD! SO Bad I have to see it ASAP lol! :thumbup:
Also -
Yongary, Monster from the Deep (1967) it's so bad its funny!

Any list like this should have Robot Monster and The Giant Claw on it.
I'd also suggest From Hell It Came (1957) and Raptor (2001), which starts out as a rampaging monster movie, and then suddenly becomes Aliens, but with dinosaurs.

BLOOD FREAK (1972)
http://youtu.be/VoU4TT8-frU (http://youtu.be/VoU4TT8-frU)
I actually own Blood Freak and seen it many times, yet it never makes me laugh. Same with Night of the Lepus. I own them for the "wow" effect I guess, and for being notoriously bad but I don't get much unintentional humor out of those. Though Night of the Lepus has at least a few, but brief, campy moments.

Raptor (2001)
I own Raptor but it was painfully dull to watch. It's just not my kind of "fun" bad.
Man, I don't know how you guys remember those huge lists. :bouncegiggle:
Allow me to add the amazing JACK-O, which marked my childhood as the first true crappy movie I've ever watched.
I remember my brother grabbing the box, which said it was "Friday the 13th, Halloween, and Nightmare on Elm Street bundled in one film". Needless to say, it contained no trace of those great movies.

The smoking narrator and the papier-mache turkey mask in BLOOD FREAK make me chuckle, though I think you're right about the "wow" factor. I thought NIGHT OF THE LEPUS was underwhelming and mostly just boring, though the rampaging giant bunnies were amusing for about five seconds.
GLEN OR GLENDA?

not seen these mentioned yet, apologies if they have been...
CHOPPING MALL ("have a nice day" always makes me laugh)
THE HOWLING PT 7: NEW MOON RISING (unbelievably awesomely hilariously bad)
THE MUTILATOR (the character Ralph is pure comedy)
THE BEAST MUST DIE (most unintentionally camp movie ever?)
FRIDAY 13TH PT 3 (the funniest F13, imo)
ICED (hilariously inept!)
THE STABALISER (any film with a bad guy called 'Greg Rainmaker' is automatically funny)
DEATH DIMENSION (Oddjob blokey is possibly the most so-bad-it's-funny actor ever)
The Toxic Avenger Part II (1989) it's so bad its funny!
(https://66.media.tumblr.com/42f57b68151ccc879048f3566cbaedf4/tumblr_nkcw628efi1qedb29o1_500.gif)
Did some adjustments since this list I have saved is a few years old. Also added two new titles: Crocodile (1979) and Mary Mary Bloody Mary (1975).
Not sure if this was mentioned:
Miami Connection (1987).
Orphan tae kwon do masters, who also have a band, battle drug dealing ninjas on motorcycles.
Must be seen to be believed. It's on YouTube.
^ I HAVE seen that! :buggedout:
Wow! What a stupid movie!
maybe someone where can remember this -
it's a Godzilla movie with a minisized Godzilla to befriends a youngster
it was so hilarious that when I saw it years ago I was crying from laughter

Godzilla's son actually talks in that movie, and it's kinda... disturbing.

"SEE him subdue a mammoth ferocious bear!" Yeah- ok-that guy in the ratty suit fits both of those descriptions. :lookingup:
QuoteIs that Arnold Schwarzenegger?
According to the credits it's
Arnold Strong.
I think I'll check out Mommie Dearest today inspired by this list. It's currently free on Amazon Prime. I remember watching it on TV back when I was a kid and found it disturbing. I'm sure some of the more over the top stuff will be ridiculous.
GYMKATA (1985)
http://youtu.be/zEQvy_ut4tA (http://youtu.be/zEQvy_ut4tA)
Having seen this once, only once, on TCM Underground, my faith in TCM was restored!
This is the movie that Trevor tried to squeeze an amoeba into the theater but failed!
The only film starring the late great undiscovered talent KURT THOMAS!
