I find myself in love with movies that are just awesomely bad.
The acting is silly, the script hilarious and the best part is the film is usually not meant to be a comedy (and if it was than it wasn't trying to be funny in a "wow porn stars act better than this" kind of way). Many of my favorite awesomely bad movies are film classics and known & loved by millions!
Here are some of my favorites and my personal favorite line(s)...
Predator (1987)
Dutch: If it bleeds, we can kill it.
Clifford(1994)
: What do you mean you're out of chocolate? How can that be?
Cashier: Everybody want chocolate. I'm out of chocolate.
Martin Daniels: I NEED CHOCOLATE!
Cashier: Alright, alright, I might have an Easter Bunny left over in the fridge.
Martin Daniels: [grabs him by the lapels] Get me the bunny!
Congo(1995)
Amy good gorilla!
Jareth: You remind me of the babe.
Goblin: What babe?
Jareth: The babe with the power.
Goblin: What power?
Jareth: The power of voodoo.
Goblin: Who do?
Jareth: You do.
Goblin: Do what?
Jareth: Remind me of the babe.
Gummo(1997)
: This sh!tty-ass rabbit stinks!
Cowboy 2: I know.
Cowboy 1:He smells like pussy! He smells like an a$$hole!
Cowboy 2: [to Bunny Boy, the "rabbit"] Hey, motherf*cker!
Cowboy 1: Smells like wetback d!ck!
Cowboy 2: They smell like a pound of bullsh!t!
So have you seen any of these movies? What are your own favorite awesomely bad movies?

I <3 Labyrinth!
congo was actually .. my favorite movie... lol :]
yeahh predator was the sickest, i got that on dvd!
The Labyrinth????? I LOVE LOVE LOVE The Labyrinth! David Bowie is a spectacle among spectacles in that movie. I nearly DIED when some kid at Blockbuster (who was not much younger than me) didn't know how to pronounce the title, which immediately told me he had no idea the work of genius he'd been missing out on his entire life.
The People Under The Stairs - it was meant to be a horror movie, but it's ridiculously, unintentionally hilarious. It was one of my absolute favorites back in the day. I should watch it again.
you watch a lot of bad movies.
I think my favorite Predator line was when he impaled a guy with his knife against the wall and said "stick around."
Haha, this reminded me of how my mom and I always joke about how my dog looks like the mean gorillas in congo.
Troll 2 pwns all.
predator is awesome
I've seen Predator, Congo and Labyrinth. All three, I have to say, are pretty good movies despite the bad acting.
I never saw or heard of any of these movies =\
I've seen Predator and Labyrinth... wow those movies did not age well. They're fun to watch again, but I can't take it as seriously as I used to. That said, Labyrinth is a fun movie.
Clifford is pretty good, for being so bad.
Good Burger had various memorable lines too. The dialogue between Kurt and Ed was so damn funny back then!
The Labyrinth was funny
Labyrinth is amazing! I have it on DVD and a poster. XD
Get to da choppaaaahhhh
Street Fighter (1994) starring Jean Claude Van Damme and dammit, this movie should've never been made. I'm a fan of the Street Fighter games and it hurts me that they made such a crappy movie. But on the other hand, this piece of crap does amuse the hell out of me and should've been sold as a spoof. It's still a spoof either way, whether the filmmakers intended it or not.
uhh, Labyrinth pwns. no joke. my fav quote from it:
“I need you. I don't know why, but every now and then in my life, for no reason at all, I need you.” ♥
beautifullllllllllll.
@ZepBlueEyedGirl@xanga - @The_Eclectic_Dreamer@xanga - @OhKiddGoKidd@xanga - @XxrockxXxgirlxX@xanga - agree. [:
I've never heard of Gummo
Actually, I enjoyed the Labyrinth. =)
@BlackJackBebe@xanga - Oh i love that XD
Labyrinth. You can't beat Bowie as Goblin King. Just doesn't get better.
To anyone who hasn't seen the Wicker Man with Nicholas Cage (yeah, I know), see it! It's so bad it's hilarious... he's running in the forest in a bear suit, gets attacked by bees, points a gun at someone for a bike... yeah, it's that bad.
Here's a the comedy trailer (it's supposed to be a thriller): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_mW8mBzmHo
My favorite bad movies are The Wizard and Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man.
I like the first Predator movie better than the second one (Danny Glover as a detective hunting drug dealers who winds up fighting an alien who makes trophies of men? Danny Glover?). I only saw "Labyrinth" once, and I remember thinking they had a lot of weird stuff in that movie.
