I’ve seen 10, but only because I adjusted my count after reading (and agreeing with) **silenus** > [@](#): > > **Bolero** shouldn’t count if you are 1) male, and 2) saw it in your youth. Titties gotta count for something! ---

IF you don’t count MST3K’d versions, then ZERO, BABY! I obviously have great taste. ---

I’ve never seen any of these and feel like maybe I’ve cheated myself. Which ones do you folks recommend? If I want to watch something REALLY bad - which one takes the prize? (And, no, I’ve never even seen them on MST3K). ---

Only 6. I was surprised, I thought I’d seen quite a few B or even C-movies in my youth, but apparently they weren’t bad enough. ---

I was shocked to find that I’ve seen five. 1. **Car 54 Where Are You?** It sucked, but I enjoyed it because it had a cameo by Mojo Nixon as a street preacher [_“Praise Jesus, praise Elvis, and praise Jack Lord’s hair!”_], and I’ve always had a major crush on Fran Drescher. 2. **Leonard Part 6** That was _bad_. Just plain, how-could-they-have-made-this-thing bad. My excuse: I was stuck on a military base in the middle of nowhere, and the Saturday-night movie was the high point of the week. 3. **Robot Monster** Hey, it’s a classic – I saw it even before MST3K did it. 4. **Hercules in New York** Back when I was a serious bodybuilder, we dug up anything Arnold ever appeared in. 5. **Rhinestone** I swear to God, my then-girlfriend dragged me kicking and screaming. (OK, I didn’t mind looking at Dolly, although it may have been the worst music I’ve ever heard her do). ---

Not counting the ones with Joel and the Bots (or later Mike), I’ve only seen 2: _Son of the Mask_ and _Master of Disguise_, and only the first in the theatre. While it’s not a _good_ movie, I wouldn’t count it as one of the 100 worst ever. That Dana Carvey dreck, yeah, it deserves its place. ---

I’ve seen most of _Battlefield Earth_ and some of _Tarzan, the Ape Man_, but the only one I’ve seen all the way through is, ahem, _Spice World_. ---

I’ve seen 8 and I didn’t think any of them were particularly bad. Certainly not bad enough to warrant a place on the bottom 100. ---

Of the ones I have seen (about 20), I’d say the worst one was “Master of Disguise”. I was oh so very bad. Really bad. Excrutiatingly bad. Excretable. Did I mention it was bad? Including The above mentioned scat, at least half of these I watched with my kids. And “Tarzan” had Bo Derek, naked, covered in mud I believe, so think that falls into the “Bolero” reprieve catagory. I kinda liked “Baby Geniuses” though. ---

I’ve seen 5 at most. One of them is Baby Geniuses…wow, that was a bad movie. Baby Geniuses 2, by the look of the list, was a good one to skip. 🆒 ---

I saw about 5 minutes of _Son of the Mask_ when I was picking up my kids from after school care, and that’s it. I don’t think I stay up late enough to have caught any of the others. ---

I think I mentioned in the other thread that I’ve seen over half of them. What can I say? I like cheezy movies. They make me laugh. Manos is so incredibly ghodsawful bad that it is hilarious. I think it should be permanently enshrined as the worst movie ever, bar none. ---

I’ve seen at least 24 of them. Thanks, MST3K! ---

I saw “Manos” just last weekend (MST3K version). My list: “Manos” The Hands of Fate (if you’ve seen the MST3K version, you know why I keep putting it in quotes.) The House of the Dead Rollerball (2002 version) Double Dragon I’m surprised Plan 9 From Outer Space isn’t in there. I deliberately went out of my way to watch the non-MST3K version (if there even is a MST3K version), and it was nonetheless funny.
