100 BEST BAD MOVIES OF ALL TIME

InformationGeek · February 01, 2009, 12:58:19 PM

I've search around somemore and I'm surprised that we once again missed a fairly obvious movie for the list. Heck, I forgot all about this one myself. I nominate a movie that has come down screaming from the stratosphere and it is bigger than a battleship:

70. The Giant Claw

71. Eddie Romero's BRIDES OF BLOOD (1968) - Featuring the lovely Miss Beverly Hills. Also with mutant vampire butterflies, killer plants, topless native girls, a horde of creepy dwarf servants, and John Ashley.

A couple of years ago I had a myself a marathon of Romero's Filipino 'Blood Island Vacation' box set while recovering from having my wisdom teeth out. These films are quite a treat even without the heavy doses of pain killers.

I actually enjoyed MONSTER A GO GO! I like the cheap and rural atmosphere of it. I dunno...just me,I guess...must people find this film insufferable...but I love it as well...
69. One of my favorite Bad movies...the HORRORS of SPIDER ISLAND!

I love it and own it ('cause of your high recommendation my friend.)

68?. SPIDER BABY (1968). I'm not sure it's so terribly "bad" as much as low-budget and offbeat, but if AHD can nominate CARNIVAL OF SOULS, then I nominate SPIDER BABY in the same spirit.

'S'bout time! And yes it is BAD, yes indeedy.

(CARNIVAL OF SOULS is BAD, way Bad, but rises above its inherent BADness to attain GREATness...)

HORRORS of SPIDER ISLAND, SPIDER BABY, THE GIANT CLAW, BRIDES OF BLOOD, SANTO AND THE BLUE DEMON VS. THE MONSTERS, TEENAGERS FROM OUTER SPACE ... now we're on track!!!

I'm currently in a bidding war on EBay to get a copy of Monster a Go Go. With any luck, I'll end up getting it, watching it, suffering through it, and reviewing it in the near future.

74. BARBARELLA

75.) Rat Pfink A Boo Boo

It is bad and funny at the same time. One of the late Ray Dennis Steckler best contributions to the world of bad films.

InformationGeek · February 02, 2009, 04:40:48 PM

Here's a film I think qualifies more than enough for this list.

76. The Killer Shrews

Well, I did it. I won myself a copy of Monster A Go Go. Here's to a painful viewing experience in my near future and a good review for you all in the future.

So.... is anyone going to nominate another movie or what? Well if none of you are going to step up to the plate, I'll do it again!

77. Jaws: The Revenge

Why is this list being dominated by the usual suspect PD/MST3K horror movies? Do so many nominations have to be the same tired old horror titles commonly found in bad movie lists? Isn't this supposed to be a "best of the bad" bad movies- in general- list?

Here's my next nomination. Let it be food for thought:

78. 1941

This movie is a fabulously over produced turd that's more stupid than funny and manages to waste a cast of brilliant comedians, at least one of which would go on to star in STRIPES; probably just to show Speilberg how a proper military comedy should be done.

No reason, except that the people who've chosen to vote happen to like these movies and think that they constitute "the best." But feel welcome to break the mold! 1941 doesn't appeal to me, but the more variety the better!

Considerate commentary. In that spirit should I nominate STAYING ALIVE (1983)?

1941 is bad. It's soul shuddering bad like how junkies describe a cocaine fueled nightmare on one of those PBS Frontline shows. It's THE KILLER SHREWS bad with a E.T. budget. Yet, like THE KILLER SHREWS, it has it's fun moments. The opening scene was inspired. Too, just about every comedian who was remotely known around the time, from that goofy looking dude in BEVERLY HILLS VAMP to John Belushi AND Ned "Squeal Piggy" Beatty is in it. As is CHRISTOPHER LEE andTOSHIRO MIFUNE! Yet 1941 still somehow manages to be a great big steaming pile of rhino dung. For that, alone, this movie should inspire awe.

How could you NOT include such a movie on this list?
