I wasn’t able to watch the whole thing when I saw it on TV, but there’s a really funny review on IMDB. Look for the one that’s by “Dr Gore.” That’s someone we should ask onto the SDMB. 
[Nitpick]
That was Bill Pullman.

I’m sorry, Dungeons and Dragons went beyond even Good-Bad, and went straight into absolutely unwatchable. Except of course for the line, commanding the party to hand over a certain object
Does having a movie by proxy count?
I have a friend of mine who’s 100% addicted to the movie “Center Stage”, which has become known as The Bad Ballerina Movie.
I hate this movie with the passion of 1000 burning suns. Like most people hate Hitler. Only more often.
And I blame my friend for making me watch it.
However, I watch it every time it comes on. Because I think Amanda Schull is cute.
House 2
Earth Girls Are Easy
Stripetease
We’re on Page 2 with no mention yet of The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the Eighth Dimension yet, monkeyboys?
Zabriskie Point
Lobster Man From Mars. Tony Curtis appears in it.
The Trial of Billy Jack
Infra-Man, which contains the best Bad Movie Line of all time - “The situation is so bad, that it is the worst it has ever been!”
An enthusiastic second for Reptilicus - which my wife described to me before we saw it. I didn’t believe her. I should have.
Gymkata.
Some ghastly Joan Crawford movie a friend of mine made me watch, about a circus or something. The only thing I remember is the lighting being arranged so that shadows concealed the bags under her chin.
Too many others to mention.

Two words:
Duel
Dennis Weaver chased through the desert by a truck…and it was directed by Speilberg.
Not to mention Cliff Clavin making an appearance as a heavy metal drummer.
John Ratzenberger was in Goliath Awaits, too, as a Navy diver. And has anyone noticed how often Ernest Borgnine shows up in this crap? Anything for a buck, Ernie.
Reptilicus was on the same level as Yonggary (the Korean Godzilla knockoff), both the original and the remake with the soldiers flying jetpacks to shoot RPG’s into his mouth, and utterly-superfluous UFO aliens.
Rock “N” Roll High School-- Ramones—P.J. Soles.
I’ll say no more.
I thought I was gonna be original by nominating They Live.
Your entire post could have been lifted directly from my brain.

…?
…!
Where’s my tinfoil hat?!
Also, the remake of the Blob.
Heads up, ElvisL1ves.
Read my post waaaaaaay back on page 1. Who’s the monkeyboy now?

I always saw that speech as a ripoff of the “before the battle of Agincourt” speech in Henry V.
I can’t believe nobody’s mentioned the classic bad but entertaining Attack Of The Killer Tomatoes. I really enjoyed that.
Popeye, however, I thought was merely bad without being entertaining.
I really liked Flash Gordon, but I wouldn’t agree that it was bad at all, just high camp. It was a perfect cartoon in the flesh. Max von Sydow was terriffic as Ming the Merciless.
Another “bad” movie I really liked was Barbarella.
My choice would have to be Lifeforce, which remains charmingly bad despite what is clearly a top-notch representation of the Female Space Alien Vampire Who Walks Around Naked Most Of The Movie.
Also inspired by Alexander Nevsky’s speech to the men of Novgorod before their battle on the ice against the Teutonic Knights. Eisenstein and Olivier both ripped it off at about the same time.
- Monkeyboy, but at least not a Black Lectroid.
I’m surprised no one has mentioned any of my faves (with the possible exception of They Live!, which was on AMC last night).

(hands down) Prayer of the Rollerboys. Corey Haim, struggling to make a living in post-economic-crash SoCal, finds himself faced off against his old friend who now leads (and I swear I am not making this up) a gang of Rollerblading, trenchcoat-wearing neo-Nazi white supremacists who are peddling a drug that will sterilize all the “impure” races, aided only by the exceptionally hot Patricia Arquette as an undercover cop attempting to avenge the death of her Rollerblading, trenchcoat-wearing, neo-Nazi, white-supremacist, sterility-inducing-drug-peddling brother. Go rent this goddamn move. How it was passed over for Oscar consideration is beyond me.
-
The Terror of Tiny Town. It’s a freaking midget Western 'Nuff said.
-
The Wraith. I think it was supposed to be a TV pilot, but whatever. I think it had Charlie Sheen in it. Some dead guy’s ghost comes back in a kickass black car to exact revenge on his murderers (or something like that), including some guy named Skank who will drink/snort anything in sight (i.e. WD-40) and then follow it up with “That shit’s got KICK!”
-
Lair of the White Worm. Bad, BAD occult horror movie, with just enough nudity in it to keep you watching.
Has anyone seen these? Please back me up, especially on Rollerboys. I loved that movie.
