They might not be A or B material but they have their own merits no doubt. Note the inclusion of "Night of the Lepus" or "Empire of the Ants." While their cult status would suggest B or even A I feel more comfortable placing them in C. Giant bunnies are very "rofl" but the novelty wears off quickly. Other than that they don't have very much going for them, but then again that is only my opinion.

Should I re-evaluate my standards? I find some of these to be average at worst, namely the horror sequels :P . Not sure if they should appear on this list or on one of your "higher tier" lists but I'd say stuff like Howling 7 and Freddy's Dead would do better on a list of "so bad they're good" stuff.

For the latest on the fifth installment in Don Coscarelli's Phantasm saga.

No doubt the sequels are crap, but:

The Hills Have Eyes Part II (1985) - It's worth it for the dog's flashback alone.
Children of the Corn III: Urban Harvest (1995) - The barbie doll posing for human? A riot.
I'll Always Know What You Did Last Summer (2006) - Oozing with unintentional hilarity.
The Unborn II (1994) - How can you not love the baby?
Pumpkinhead II: Blood Wings (1994) - If this doesn't make you laugh you must be dead :(
House of the Dead 2 (2005) - Kick-ass cheese.
Wishmaster 2: Evil Never Dies (1999) - See as above.
No Man's Land: The Rise of Reeker (2008) - Almost on the same level as the first. Almost. That's why its listed here.
The Return of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1994) - Gotta give it credit for being ... twisted.
Leprechaun 2 (1994) - Better than the first.

I've toyed with the idea of including Howling 7 as I have a big soft spot for that one. Maybe on List D?
Freddy's Dead is too dull for my liking, but Freddy's Revenge almost made the cut because of the obvious homosexual undertones, and most importantly - the exploding parakeet  :bouncegiggle:

I've only seen a tiny handful of these, but I'd put BLOOD DINER and GYMKATA on my personal top 100 lists.  Certainly ahead of HOWLING 2!  But viva la difference!  :cheers:

Flight of the Living Dead is a fave of mine.

I love your lists !
They're not the films I would've picked but it just adds to the fun. Y'know, I never finished Blood Diner maybe I should re-visit it.

Blood Diner is another film with a reputation. Some people get mad when not listed, so I sort of just threw it in the mix. It's not a huge favorite of mine but I acknowledge the cult appeal/homage and besides, there are worse movies out there.

Thanks for making up these lists. Some of these I've never seen or even heard of, so now I've got some new(for me) movies to check out.

 I grew up with movies like Gymkata, Swarm , Frogs and Empire of the Ants and rate them pretty high. They'd rank in the higher end of my B list. I'd put Flight of the Living Dead up there too.

 I'd add Wasp Woman to this list as well as Werewolves on Wheels, Hollow Point and Link(but only becasue of Elizabeth Shue,)

 Of course Above the Law would rank in my top 100. :smile:
Jumping Kings and Making Haste Ain't my Cup of Meat

Ed, Ego and Superego

This is a fine list, but remember we are hardened movie veterans and have higher standards for our bad film..  And there is some fine Saturday afternoon entertainment in this list.
