It's possibly a bit too well done to be a proper B-movie, but Tucker and Dale Vs Evil is worth a watch.

Failing that, anything produced by [url= http://www.theasylum.cc/ ]The Asylum [/url]films

Wicker Man's a good shout! Not the Nicolas Cage remake though, I can only imagine that's dire!

Not technically a B-movie (in the traditional sense), but I'm a big fan of Never Back Down - think Fight Club without the plot. It's total bollocks, but entertaining bollocks.

I agree with Cowman, Troll Hunter, though wouldn't say it awfully bad, just not great

Anything made by Italians between 1970-1985.

Directors to look out for:

Dario Argento (though his films in this period are definitely not awful)
Mario Bava (As above)
Lucio Fulchi
Ruggero Deodato
Enzo G. Castellari
Lamberto Bava
Umberto Lenzi
Sergio Martino

Regularly voted the worst film ever made. It's so bad it's amazing.

Another +1 for Bubba Ho-Tep. Coincidentally I was dismantling a broken old dvd player yesterday to use the case for something else and found my B H-T dvd inside - I've been wondering what happened to that for years!

Also: Repo Man & They Live.

My Name Is Bruce pushed my Bruce Campbel fanboi-ness to the limits - was ever so close to turning that one off.

I was going to suggest Highlander III: The Sorcerer, but quite frankly it's such a miserably inept attempt to continue the series that I'd feel really embarrassed if anyone actually watched it on my suggestion.
Avoid, please, it possesses no redeeming features at all. 😐

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.

+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.

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 ?

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

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

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 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

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!
