What is your favourite type of bad movie?

Frankenhooker was kind of good in a dirty way.

I like 50's monster & sci-fi movies, like The Blob, The Killer Shrews, or Killers From Space.

I know pretty much exactly what I'm looking for in bad movies but I cannot accurately pin it down in words. Or why I love some bad movies but don't like other ones. It just needs that certain director/writer and bunch of actors to make the magic happen.  (but they can't actually realise they're doing it, or the spell is broken.)

I agree that dull/boring bad is the worst kind of bad, but at the same time dull/boring does not necessarily equal slow-moving or not much happening... explosions and car chases can be dull in the wrong hands.

My favorites are ones that feature unintentional comedy (Troll 2), the weird (the Russian Jack Frost)  the ones I find strangely hypnotic and kind of like for some reason (Manos)

[Ticonderoga 64]

I can easily enjoy low budget schlock(Ed Wood, Jerry Warren, Al Adamson), Blaxplotation(Blacula, Coffy, Thing With Two Head,s, Blackenstein, Sugar Hill, Friday Foster, etc..), Full Moon releases, TROMA films, Misty Mundae sexploitation stuff from Seduction Cinema, Fred Olen Ray's Retromedia films and others.

Misty Mundae sexploitation stuff from Seduction Cinema,

I must admit having a slight fondness for the work of that actress too, although my favourite thing I've seen her in was an episode of Masters of Horror involving a bug.

My clone and I don't exactly look for bad movies to watch.  They just wind up on our DVD shelf.   

Having said that, if you want to ensure to find a bad movie, just grab any Echo Bay DVD 50 pack.

I think to love BAD movies, you have to first love movies, and eventually realize some of the movies you love are not actually good... 

We definitely come to love certain types of movies, any part of which might be bad production, bad acting, bad script,  bad taste, bad message... bad for you.

We do love movies. That is true. However, we both realize that most people going in making an actual movie do not intend to make a bad one (99% of the time anyway)  Its the dedication to everyone involved that either does not realize its bad and does not walk away (for what ever reason) that keeps me engaged.

...Unless it's "Dot com for Murder".  That movie screams "tax dodge" written all over it.
