Roadhouse – compellingly awful!

Already mentioned I think, but another vote for:
Bad Taste
Braindead
Dead Snow

Oh, and The Gate

Bad taste

Can’t believe people are suggesting Wickerman! It’s a **** classic people!!!

Oooo the gate, good choice.

Kindza-dza-dza

It’s the most bizarre but funny film I’ve seen. From the genre of dystopia soviet Sci fi. Only in Russian but sub titles are OK and most of the dialogue is in an alien language anyway. One of the main characters looks like John Cleese.

some beauties here…cheers

the blob

Sex lives of the potato men – hilarious but shit

He’ll comes to frog town, staring (and that term is used lightly) rowdy roddy piper!

Dark Star – it’s one of my favourite films!

Toxic Avenger – pure class ,loved it i might look on line and buy right now ha ha

+1 tremors (and the sequels)
Biggles adventures in time has a very highlander-y 80s feel to it

Highlander (I)
Dark Star (damn, beaten to it..)

No way Wicker Man is a B movie TBH. When it came out it was shown with Don’t Look Now which would have been a freaky evening out.. I saw it with The Privilege – film adaptation of a G M Brown story..

Dog soldiers

Someone else got there first! Ah well…

Easily the most terrible film I’ve seen in yonks (only saw it for the first time a few months ago). It’s so crap that it’s actually quite brilliant! Features a number of “before they were famous” actors too…

“The Business” is a rarity in that it’s got Danny Dyer in, but it’s actually quite good. Hysterical stereotypes abound in the film full of a load of Essex Boys on the Costa Del Crime in the 80’s, but it’s pretty funny in a tragic way.

So too “Severance” on the Danny Dyer front… Another film that’s hilarious in spite of him rather than because of him.

Bad Taste and They Live my top picks, but I’ll go with Brain Damage and the Phantasm trilogy.

Ski School

Can’t believe no one has said

BIG TROUBLE IN LITLLE CHINA yet…

Also Darkman is excellent.

Human traffic, the best danny dyer film by far.

Nice one brother.

Pulp Fiction.

Essentially a B movie, but with an A list cast.

POSTED 5 HOURS AGO #

How can you say that about what many consider one of the best films ever made ?

What does “essentially a B movie ” actually mean ?

The Gods must be crazy. Daft South African comedy.

Empire of the Ants, starring Joan Collins

Iron Sky.

Cheech and Chong
Nice dreams and still smokin.

Not quite b movies but ,
Twin town
Final cut
and nil by mouth,

Teeth

It’s terrible!

Troll hunter isn’t bad but great, it’s just bad.

How about The Thing from 1982. B film for sure but great.

Kick boxer and bloodsport, B movies surely.

Penitentiary one, two and three. Amazingly bad blaxploitation, rocky, prison, funk with Mr T as some kind of Genie in the second one.

Incense for the Damned – utterly random psychedelic orgy scene.

Courage starring Dick Jones from Robocop. It’s about a group of runners that run afoul of a bunch of paramilitary nuts. The most intense scene is when Dick Jones gets a cramp whilst hiding. Sort of like the original The Hills Have Eyes, but missing the kick ass hillbilly killing Golden Retriever 🙂

The party, with peter sellers.
Party party with perry fenwick.

Gregory’s girl.

Iron sky, I mean space nazis? Whats not to love!

Sharknado!!! 🙂

Ginger Snaps

the best bad movie without doubt is

EVIL ROY SLADE with John Astin, absolutely hilarious cowboy film

and maybe KINGPIN with Woody Harrelson a close second

Some nice ones on here!
My two pennorth;
Surf Nazis must Die, Chopper Chicks in Zombie Town pretty much any of the Troma films.
Some good 60s Hells Angels films too; Rough Boys, Hells Angels 69 etc.
El Topo, Holy Mountain if you fancy something a bit more psychedelic

Class of nuke ’em high is always another favourite of mine. You can’t beat a bit of low budget Troma!

cannibal holocaust

The Punisher (the 80s version with Dolph Lundren) – cheap but surprisingly good… and possibly available to watch on youtube…

In fact, youtube is a goldmine of full length crappy films.

Zombie Flesh Eaters was another awful one…..I remember being disturbed by a scene with a zombie having an underwater fistfight with an obviously drugged shark.
A friend of mine also introduced me to Archive.org which has loads of out-of-copyright films. Carnival of Souls being a very weird one!
