Anything from [url= http://www.theasylum.cc/ ]The Asylum[/url] studio; where Sharknado, Mega Shark vs Giant Octopus, etc are made.

I've not seen any of them, but their knock-offs of Hollywood films have great titles, must watch some of them sometime;
= Transmorphers
= Snakes on a train
= The 18 year old virgin
= Alien Vs Hunter

Its marmite that's been stored in a jar of pickled onions, but I do put it on every now and then, its strangely hypnotic.

yeah, pretty much anything with Burt in it ^ guaranteed to be awful, but strangely watchable.

Crank (and crank 2 actually)...... had no right to be as good as it was.

Glad to see some love for 'golden era' Seagal. Luckily my wife loves them too.

There's another classic bit in On Deadly Ground where he beats the shit out of a guy in a bar then says 'what does it take to change the essence of a man' and makes him cry.

Star Ship Troopers - amazing how many people don't get it.

They Live - classic.

Most things with Stathe in are worth a watch - the Crank films are post-modern masterpieces!

This [url= http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Run_For_Your_Wife_(2012_film) ]film[/url] (with Danny Dyer) got universally panned the reviews are bloody hilarious:

Run for Your Wife met with such overwhelmingly negative reviews upon release that the reviews themselves were widely reported in the UK media.[5] The film was variously described as "a catastrophe", "as funny as leprosy" and "30 years past its sell-by-date", with The Guardian reviewer Peter Bradshaw saying that it "makes The Dick Emery Show look edgy and contemporary".[6] The Independent's Anthony Quinn wrote, "The stage play ran for nine years - it (the film) will be lucky to run for nine days. Perhaps never in the field of light entertainment have so many actors sacrificed so much dignity in the cause of so few jokes… From the look of it, Cooney hasn't been in a cinema for about 30 years".[7] The cameo-heavy cast was commented upon by several reviewers, with the Metro commenting that "no one emerges unscathed among the cameo-packed cast that reads largely like a roll-call for Brit TV legends you'd previously suspected deceased".[8] The Daily Record described the film as "an exasperating farce containing not one single, solitary laugh. Comprised of people losing their trousers and falling over, the film looks like a pilot for a (mercifully) never-commissioned 70's sitcom".[9]
[10] As of 18 February 2013 the film has a 0% approval rating on aggregate review website Rotten Tomatoes.[11] The film made £602 during its opening weekend.[12]
