My first bad movie ... THE BRAIN THAT WOULDN'T DIE!

I guess I was about 6 or so and I was watching it with my cousin in the basement and I kept freaking her out ... I opened the table up, you know where you pull it apart to put the leafs in to expand it and I stuck my head up threw it and call her name and go "Where's my body? Where did my body go?" and she screamed bloody murder and peed her pants she was a a year and a day young then me! Strange no one else thought it was funny... I still laugh about it.

Anyway that was the first bad movie I remember clearly watching and it was down hill from there.

I recall seeing it on a Saterday afternoon in the dead of winter on a some uhf channel. My younger brothers,Richie and Jimmy, were watching it with me. When pinhead busted outta the closet,Jimmy screamed like a girl and hid behind the couch-and Richie ran outta the room! I laffed my ass off! For such a low budget piece of shlock-that scene is STILL pretty amazing!
Supernatural?...perhaps. Baloney?...Perhaps not!" Bela Lugosi-the BLACK CAT (1934)

Lugosi-"No. Dracula-never ends."

My memory is a bit foggy on the actual first one.  However, I recall the local station on Saturdays running awful kung fu flicks in the late afternoon and horror films (ROTLD, Children Shouldn't Play With Dead Things) in the evening.  Though I was young, I'd sit and watch them with my father with great interest.   

I think the seeds were sewn way before that though.  My brother would let me watch more mainstream films like Poltergeist, Jaws, Friday The 13th, etc.  He also was a big Elvira fan which helped introduce me to more bad movies.

Earliest memories were of the following stuff (not sure which came first):

King Kong (1976)
60s Spider-Man cartoon
80s Astroboy cartoon
Salem's Lot (1st mini to scare the beejeezus out of me)
Star Trek Original Series
The Starlost

Some show I can't even remember the title of but which featured kids piloting a spaceship (similar in many ways to Star Trek)

This is a weird conundrum... watching bad films as a kid, they weren't really bad. Not till I revisited them later in life did they become bad.

That made for TV Spiderman movie is pretty EPIC.  :wink:
