I figured I may as well start a topic to get some reccomendations and other’s opinions on this, it felt a little… wrong to put this stuff in “most laughable film” because this is about films so bad they’re good, not films so pitiful they’re sad. So just tell us your favorite bad films and why you like them.
So, let the favorites begin!
If there’s any Aussies here, they will no doubt know of SBS’ classics on Saturday at around eleven. My favorite? A film known as “Ghost Vixen.”
The whole story of Ghost Vixen is about a deadly ghost women who needs to kill one hundred virgin men born on the same date and, you guessed it, our “hero” is next up from 99. But his ugly girlfriend when he was young, who he claimed to save his “first time” for, has something to say about that. Armed with magic bags and a face that not even a mother could love (nah, she ain’t really that ugly, they make her out to be in the film), she does her best to save the day.
Some of my favorite scenes include when a girl who fancies him gets pissed off at his hiring of a whore and casts one of the three magic bags of punishment, given to her by her father. Anyway, this particular one makes his dick so big that if he were to wear pants it would be just shy of the end of his trousers. Seems great, unfortunetly the next day in the office he was to see a bunch of spunky models in very scant clothing being used for their next ad campain. Needless to say, his “leg” flies right up and knocks down the table “it’s a cramp!” he cries. Then he gets a leg massage by one of the members of the board, despite his cries that he’s fine.
Another great moment was when he hired a hooker and he had a huge spell of bad luck. He chose all these different places for them to have sex. First of all, he parks his car near a football field or something and finds a gang war going on. He goes to all these different places, which I’m afraid I don’t remember (wish I taped it), and finally goes home. Well, his bad luck holds up. The whore gets her hair caught in his fly, glasses break and, if I remember correctly, the roof falls down. The final insult, two thugs bust in which he sees after getting out from the toiler and we hear a dialog something like this:
Hero: “What do you want?”
Thug #1: “Money and sex”
Thug #2: “And we already got the money”
Hero: “Okay, just take her, I already paid. No rough stuff, alright?”
Thug #1: “No, we want you”
I don’t even have to continue. Afterwards, he finds those little bags that the girl who was living with him used on him, a “truth” one. Anyone, the only guy he told about the “buggery” incident and his boss are the next two to cop his fury. He uses the bag on the boss who tells him what a bad worker he is and only keeps him hired becase “he got him laid” (noticing a preoccupation with sex here?). Next up, he tackles his mate who tells him how he really feels, and trust me, it wasn’t flattering. Finally he says “oh yeah, and about that buggery thing, I told everyone.”
That was a classic, if anyone finds it, it’s a top watch. I just wish I could show you some of the dodgy effects or some of the top silly moments. It’s hi-larry-arse.
I might add some of my older favorites later…
Also, can anyone tell me if “Bad Taste” (Written/dircted/produced/etc. by Peter Jackson, yes, him) is any good? Not a big splatter fan, but a lover of comedy/horror.
