This is not a "guilty pleasure" category but a category of films that you know are "bad" movies, but you just feel compelled to watch them whenever you're flipping around cable TV and land on them. Here are a couple of bigger ones for me:

"The Hot Spot" - Don Johnson, Jennifer Connelly, Virginia Madsen
"Mystic Pizza" - Julia Roberts, Lilly Taylor, Anabeth Gish, Vincent DiNofrio

I don't know if this applies, per se, but I think 15 Minutes is fantastic, even though it got what, a 43 on MC?

Blue Streak. Anytime I see it on TV I end up watching it for at least 15 minutes.

The list is way to long, but I'll try and think.

I thought Mystic Pizza was a good movie! I haven't seen it in a really long time, but I remember thinking it was good.

Bad movies that are awesome:

Big Trouble in Little China

Death of a Cheerleader (best Lifetime movie ever-starring Tori Spelling and Kellie Martin)

Teen Witch

How about "Krull"!

Oh my goodness, I love Krull. In the same vein, some more to add to my list are:

  • Legend
  • Labyrinth (David Bowie, yum!)
  • Willow


Yup, I love bad fantasy movies. Can't help it. Princesses, unicorns, yay!

A friend at the bar mentioned Zardoz last night so I had to post it here! Awful movie with the best chest hair ever filmed!

"The Stupids"---a childhood favorite. I dont know why in God's name I like this one, but I do!


The same for "Good Burger". That nickelodeon movie that sort of launched the careers of Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell. Though, theyve sort of dissapeared since then.

Yeah! (although you might want to come down just a tad)
The Karate Kid films (the ones with Ralph Macchio anyway) are all great! Funny, nostalgic and entertaining! I especially like the first one but I also love the one in Japan.

Karate Kid rules. I've seen Indian Summer about ten times on HBO, etc. Not really sure why.

KT...I LOVE Legend and Labyrinth! Eddie...Love Cocktail too! Invariably, I always end up wanting to be a bartender after watching that movie.

My all time favorite bad movie has got to be Condorman. If you guys haven't seen it, check it out. It is so much fun.

(I'm waiting for Slimebalrog to say "Gymkata".)
