your "perfect"bad movies...

[Morpheus, the unwoke.]

Name some bad movies you consider perfect examples of the genre.

The green slime/X from outer space.  Scifi campiness, laughable fx, bad acting, wooden actors, ridiculous drama,  hilarious monsters.... What could be better?

THE LOST EMPIRE from 1984.  The bad movie that got me hooked on bad movies for life.

Did you remember to thank the makers of it?

[WingedSerpent]

For me, Godzilla and Ray Harryhausen movies are my main diet of what a lot of people would call bad movies.  Although many of those are influential masterpieces.

I do like H e l l comes to Frogtown and its direct to video sequel.  Ridicules premise, cheap sex appeal, and some spfx that can look good if your tired of CGI

Miami Connection - Good pacing, don't have slow moments, bad dialogue, great music, too many ideas thrown in and great bad action scenes.

sci-fi: SCANNERS 3 (1992)

slasher: THE MUTILATOR (1984)

action: SAMURAI COP (1991)


and the best intentional parody of such things:
GARTH MARENGHI'S DARKPLACE (2004)

Horror of the blood monsters. 1970

You gotta hand it to Al Adamson. The effort and ingenuity he put into this movie was amazing. I mean,  he took black and white movies, put them in a color movie and came up with an excuse to fit them into a color movie.

It really was impressive how he made this movie work, even if he had to spend a lot of the movie explaining it. I really have to hand it to him. I kinda wonder if if had put this much effort into making a good movie how it would have been...

But still this movie was a product of low budget, high ambition genius...

For Y'ur Height Only (1981)

Error 404 (Not Found)!!1

Personally, I consider the perfect bad movies those with low budget and unknown actors, but that still make a great movie. In some cases, better than big budget productions.

EVIL DEAD II would be one of the best examples in the horror genre. Cheesy, outrageous, funny, scary, memorable, and with awesome special effects. That movie has everything.

I'd call a couple of those listed good genre movies (FASTER p***yCAT, EVIL DEAD II). But everyone's definitions are a bit different in the marginal cases.

I think I'd go with GLEN OR GENDA? Really bad, full of what-was-he-thinking? choices. But at the same time sincere, likeable, with a good heart, and the iconic presence of Bela Lugosi. There's a reason Ed Wood is still the poster boy for bad movies.

Well, if it's featured in the badmovies.org official review section, then it counts!
