    No way Kung Fu Hustle!! Also didn’t know about Shaolin Soccer.

    Kung Pow! is also very worthy of watching. Absolutely hilarious and kinda bad too. Highly recommended 😀

    Kung Fu Hustle is probably one of my favourite films, at least one of my favourite Kung Fu films.
    It shouldn’t be on this list – it is an incredible film – I don’t think it tries or pretends to be anything it isn’t. It is the perfect tribute to the Kung Fu genre – it’s hilarious, the filmography superb and the less than subtle effects are the icing on the cake. Love it.

    On Deadly Ground – Steven Seagal has a spiritual moment in the Alaskan wilderness and becomes at one with the natives, then kicks the ass of the bad guys, of whom the chief one is Michael Caine.

    Also from Michael Caine – Water, one of those cheap British movies of the 1980s before 4 weddings when the entire british film industry was bankrolled by George Harrison. He’s briefly in this, more so Billy Connolly, and I think it was Leonard Rossiter’s final role. A comedy set in a colonial outpost.

    Tremors is just great. No ‘so bad it’s good there’. The sequels though, very much so.

    I’m going with ‘Biggles: Adventures in time’

    Doomsday, How i hate thee let me count the ways.

    1. A virus so infectious they wall up scotland but then stop working on a cure. because politicians.

    2. APC taken out with makeshift axe and arrow.

    3. Good job we happened to have this handy steam train and it was ready for immediate departure.

    4. So we took over the castle and thought **** it we will just abandon all technology.

    5. So all the years you have been using this tunnel you never thought to look any further?

    6. She asks what it does like she has never seen a car before but what about all the cars in Glasgow?

    7. Wait a minute there hasn’t been any rain this whole time its almost like this was filmed in another country….

    8. Trained police baddass cant outrun loons in ropey old british leyland bangers on a straight road using a Bentley continental.

    9. Villan reveals his entire plan in needless exposition.

    10. Villan gets his inevitable comeuppance.

    So with all this in mind why do i find it so watchable?

    Pah, these are nothing!

    I was at my sisters t’other day where she has Sky and I watched a film on the Syfy channel:

    ‘Robocroc’

    It was so utterly awful I laughed so much I weed a bit. Unfortunately I had to go to bed else I could have stayed up and watched ‘Ghost Shark’.

    SHARKNADO !!

    Brilliant film, worth watching for continuity errors. Straight out of a completely flooded house onto a bone dry road. Superb! Great effects as well.

    ^^^ WHS. I’d put A Knight’s tale and Starship Troopers in the same category, them folks are laughing heartily at themselves. 🙂

    Cutesy little American kid, can’t act, pulls stupid faces at camera; ridiculous cartoon violence; hideous schmaltzy ending .. but boy, sit there and watch with your 10 year old kid and try not to laugh out loud!

    Daylight, 90’s Sly Stallone film about a bunch of people trapped underground. Comedy gold from start to finish

    Charlie’s Angels, its crap on every level but really watchable for some reason

    The thing is, The Princess Bride ticks the awful box quite well, but then takes it back through quite good and on to pure brilliance.

    That’s a great film.

    The Final Countdown
    I watch this at least once a year, terrible film but I like seeing Tomcats shooting down Zeros.

    I’m not sure what’s going on in here, people seem to just be listing good movies 😀

    Blade, Starship Troopers, Tremors, Predator – these are all genuinely good films!!

    If you want bad-good – I watched “Pain & Gain” last weekend. **** genius… Marky Mark and The Rock, with Michael Bay directing. Absolutely brilliant.

    Event Horizon – I know it’s a bad, bad film but, if it comes on, I’ll happily watch it all the way through 😕

    Sorry still too many people listing good films, not just films that are so bad they’re good.

    The Princess Bride? Really? It’s a classic, as is Event Horizon, Bubba Ho Tep is also great…

    How about Return of the Killer Tomatoes… & Rubber, maybe even Nude Nuns with Big Guns…

    No one mentioned The Room yet? Truly truly awful movie. Sudden and dramatic lines delivered in either totally over the top ways and never mentioned again or totally underplayed and never mentioned again. The highly cringe worth sex scenes. The penchant for playing football anywhere and at any time. And best of all, the star of the show, director, writing and actor Tommy Wiseau with is weird accent and awful acting. Truly a film that is so bad that it becomes brilliant.

    Horror and sci-fi channels on Sky are always good for a bad film you end up being drawn into when you have better things to do e.g Quater Mass and the Pit got me last week

    AdamW failed to mention that RoboCroc’s cast was led by a bloke who used to be on the Bill (doing a bad American accent), the mother from E.T. and Keith Duffy from Boyzone.
