What is the last bad movie you watched? I'm just done watching Werewolves on Wheels (1971)
The totally boring farmland horror movie UNEARTH.
From Dusk Till Dawn 3: The Hangman's Daughter (2000)

From Dusk Till Dawn 3: The Hangman's Daughter (2000)
That thing was made in South Africa, bob: my apologies that you had to sit through it :buggedout: :wink:
I watched the 1973 remake of Lost Horizon again: if you polish a turd, it's still a turd :buggedout: :buggedout:
Neon Maniacs (1986)

Not a movie I would label good, but it always delivers the B-movie goods which makes it very entertaining for me. The plot was inspired by Gremlins, and is about water-fearing demonic mutants living underneath a bridge. They only come out at night to kill, and they have their own character trading cards.

Adding to the weirdness is Paula. She is a friendly outcast who loves everything horror but dislikes cops. She even makes her own horror movies. Paula is some sort of tomboy who wears her cap sideways. I've read Donna Locke (Paula) was in her twenties, and the Paula character was suppose to be around 14 years old. Neon Maniacs is the only film in her resume.
Fun flick that makes little sense.
^I've heard of it. Now I must see it! :thumbup:
Highly recommended. Paula is easily one of my favorite b-horror movie characters.
if i recall that version of Lost Horizon had cut a lot out so that may be why it was so bad?
i do have From Dusk Till Dawn 3: Hangman's Daughter (1999) i just haven't watched it yet i enjoy the hell out of the 2nd one to be honest. that one is a lot of un and among my favorites. it has one of my favorite dialogs too where they are talking about Porn and they wish it had more story these days. a friend of mine who has since passed away he's been gone like a decade i think? anyways, that''s what he always used to say to me

The 1973 version of Lost Horizon was a musical (??) and I was six when I first saw it. The 1937 Lost Horizon was a great movie indeed but the remake :buggedout: :buggedout:
SPOOKIES(1986)...two bad films merged into one, however, it still has that '80's cheezy film vibe.
Depends on how you define "bad movie." Some people would consider PRISONERS OF THE GHOSTLAND a bad movie (it does have a 4.2 IMDB rating). I wouldn't call it a bad movie, though.
Then there's a couple of bad indie art-house movies, THE ONE YOU FEED and LAVA. These are bad (really bad), but probably not really in the spirit of the question.
The last unquestionable "bad movie" I watched is BAD GIRLS GO TO HELL.
BattleDogs
Take the story of one of those zombie outbreak stories and replace the zombies with werewolves. It sadly wasn't as exciting as it sounds.

The Majorettes (1986)
Looks like IMDb finally (?) settled on a production/release year for The Majorettes. For now. It has been constantly changing from 1988 to 1987 to 1986 for years.
Anyway, this is from S. William Hinzman (Bill Hinzman, the infamous graveyard zombie from Night of the Living Dead) based on a novel by John A. Russo, who wrote the screenplay for Night of the Living Dead. The Majorettes is a pretty wild B-movie. It is a slasher on the surface turning into a Rambo-like Biker-Action flick nestled in a toxic family revenge soap drama. Lots of colorful characters and insane plot twists. It's bad but certainly not boring.
Peelers.
Initially, I had assumed this would be a horror-comedy involving the early London police force, but it turned out to be another entry in the strippers vs zombies sub-genre that I thought had died out. Some boobs on display, plenty of fake blood.
Redneck Zombies. Fun little movie.
Saturday the 14th (1981) - I love the monsters but the film is a waste with the main human cast.
Cannibal The Musical--to be honest, it's really not that bad of a film.
First film by Trey Parker and Matt Stone, who later created South Park and did the film Team America: World Police.
The songs are phenomenal. Acting, not so much, but they were still in college, so, expected.

Attack of the Giant Leeches.
Svenghoulie had Frankenstein vs The Space Monster last Saturday......
Been wanting to see that one for a while.....
Grumpy Cats Worst Christmas Ever
I wouldn't be surprised if this movie's plot was only 30 minutes long, & the extended it artificially with a lot of sarcastic meme-like cut away gags.
Early Frost - A confusing Australian thriller/melodrama. A heavy breathing killer who sounds like Michael Myers on a respirator is killing middle aged women and the main character is being stalked as well. It doesn't have a director listed and the ending and identity of who the killer is and what his motive is never explained and the lead character is mean and hateful.
UNSANE. Left a review in the Recent Viewings thread. It was filmed with an iPhone, 'nuff said.
DEMENTIA 13 (1963)
Kind of great, kind of ridiculous. :thumbup:
Thomas Kinkade's Christmas Cottage.
When you read the back cover synopsis, you would assume its cheesy, predicable and dull as one of his own paintings. It does start off with loads of film cliches - and it can be predictable..but the moment Chris Elliot (yes, THAT Chris Elliot) shows up with an obvious bad toupee, you know it will not be dull. In fact, the movie does throw you a few curve balls....and lots of "are we still doing phrasing" moments that keep you awake.

I own this movie. I love it.

I 'm watching something called Dark Ausust on tubi right now. Looks like a really uneventful 70's devil movie
I think it was Andy Milligan's "Fleshpot on 42nd Street" from the blu-ray boxed set.
Lavalantula.
It was the wife's idea and almost resulted in a divorce
I just watched AIRPORT (1970), AIRPORT 75, and AIRPORT 79.
Overblown made for TV movies.

Three of them were all produced by someone who got shot in his gentleman's area a while back so that might have something to do with it :buggedout: :teddyr:

HANGER (2009). Ugh. Horrible.
Warrior of the Lost World (1984). What got me straight away was how well-maintained the apocalyptic wasteland was and how the freeways are newly painted and clean. The film would have been better if the protagonist looked like they actually wanted to be there
The Next Man (1976)
One would think that at least Sean Connery could carry a weak ass script and story all by himself. However, even the Late Sir Sean had phone in his performance from his house to the point his long distance bill ate up his salary. He plays an arab (possibly Saudi? ) diplomat who has been thrust into the role of lead UN delegate for (Saudi?) country. He mumbles his way through the whole film. The script never gives us anything to hold onto, character or story wise fully. Heck, there's one scene where he leads his entourage of (Saudi?) and US security team down below this Manhattan hotel to an abandoned subway tunnel. He gives this speech that has no relevance to ...anything at all.
And that's the best part of the movie.
Oh yeah, there's a plot to have him assassinated before he delivers his speech to the UN.
today during a Tech Education class for my students, for reasons I still don't get, the movie Good Burger was shown
Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band.
Thankfully, the ONLY dialogue spoken at all is by George Burns. The producer got the rights to a stage version of this production. He thought it would make a good movie....
NO. IT. DIDN'T.
I just watched a few awful movies, Carnosaur and Burnt Offerings. I was jacked up watching Carnosaur but I not enough to think it wasn't crap. Burnt Offerings felt like it was going in the right direction but went off course with over the top acting and not enough horror until the very end. It's really hard to sit through trash movies.
The Invisible Woman
Tho it's actually pretty good! :thumbup:
I started watching a thing called Hitman: The Cobra (1987) on Youtube and stopped when I saw the name Godfrey Ho in the credits :buggedout:
TITANIC 666 - A rather silly haunted ship tale.

I admit to little interest in most
HALLOWEEN films (at least after the first 3) so I did not follow or expect much in the way of plot.
The acting is particularly good with
JAMIE LEIGH CURTIS and another survivor actor of age... it is hard to watch the two punt ownership back and forth of the football of blame that each claims for him or herself... male and female, hospital bed to hospital bed... and ever'body GITS a SHOT at Mikey... Wham! Ooo! Yeah! Uh... WTF? Y'know I felt like crying at the end for poor ol' undead Mikey...
Andy Warhol's
"Heat"
Ugh... its got to be a lame attempt to copy John Waters.

HEAT is 1972 and much too early for anybody to be "copying"
JOHN WATERS (who may owe a bit of a debt to
WARHOL -
MORRISSEY's films). But, I don't doubt it's a bore.

The dialogue is written almost exactly like any John Waters movie...but delivered so flat and lifelessly.
Been watching a lot of weird roughies from the 70's and 80's for God knows what reason. A lot of Avon's roughies have this weird mix of being legitimately messed up horror experiences and also feature exquisite "so bad it's good" acting, especially whenever George Payne is involved.
Recently watched the infamous "Taming of Rebecca" and Payne's performance as the headmaster/dean is so over-the-top evil to the point it becomes cartoonish and sort of takes the sting out of an otherwise messed up roughie.
The Ghost (1963) Staring Barbara Steele
Italian movie set in Scotland.
The year is 1910, & Dr. Hitchcock is both sharp-tempered & depressed. There's a reason for that; he's paralyzed from the waste down, & his wife (Steele) is having an affair with Dr. Livingstone, who Dr. Hitchcock hired to take care of him. Ya see, Hitchcock's developed a regimen of poison's & antidotes which he thinks'll cure his paralysis. But, with Livingstone administrating the treatment, Dr. Livingstone has the perfect opportunity to off Dr. Hitchcock, so Hitchcock's wife & Livingstone can keep the old Doc's mansion & money. Guess what happens when they take that opportunity?
There are some moderately creepy scenes once the soapy intro is over, but this film is a bit slow, & I was able to guess the ending. Still a passable haunted house/mystery film. Kinda like a cheap versin of Rebecca (1940). Steele would've made a good Lady Macbeth.
i did see this one but i do not remember what i thought of it cause it's been a long time i'll watch anything with Barbra Steele in it
"No Ordinary Hero" (2013)
Wow, this movie is self serving and pretensions. Everyone involved has zero self awareness.
The "heroes" are all blameless.
The "villains" are practically twiddling their mustaches.
Every character in this movie is wholly unbelievable.
Because I Said So (2007) ---
just avoid
Casablanca :wink:
"Goin' Coconuts" (1978) with Donny and Marie Osmond popped up in my "recommended videos" on YouTube for some un-godly reason, and I couldn't help it... I clicked "play."
It played like a 30 minute sitcom episode stretched out to 90 minutes. The only thing that kept me watching till the end were the lingering effects of my childhood crush on Marie Osmond. :teddyr:
As part of my yearly 4th of July action movie marathon.

THE VELVET VAMPIRE on TCM 2am July 9
(https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/7/76/The-velvet-vampire.jpg)
What a pie-hole of a movie. Soft-core porn/ Horror, we get two lovely jigglers and male arse no frontals of nobody, all titillation. :thumbup: :bluesad:
THE VELVET VAMPIRE is actually a bit bloody violent and it even gets like CREEPY GET AWAY FROM ME YOU PASTY LEECH... :bouncegiggle:
Stupid "surprise" ending. :lookingup:
This is the lovely Velvet Vampire in the desert sun "of early morning" wearing her snappy blacky hatty and red! Got it?

I think the last bad movie I watched was "Monster from Green Hell." I bought the blu-ray not long ago.
